Homeopathic medicine for uric acid is the best treatment for elevated uric acid levels. When excessive uric acid levels are treated with homeopathic medicines, the body’s faulty inclination to retain too much uric acid is also treated. Homeopathic treatments also address the body’s metabolism of purines, a type of protein that the body converts into uric acid. But, before going further, let’s first understand what uric acid is and what harmful consequences can be brought on by high uric acid levels.
Uric acid
Uric acid is a typical bodily waste product. It develops when substances called purines decompose. The body naturally contains a chemical called purines. They can also be discovered in various foods, including liver, seafood, and alcohol. When DNA is damaged, purines may potentially develop within the body.
The body eliminates uric acid, created in the blood, when purines are broken down when you urinate or pass stool. But uric acid can accumulate in the blood if your body produces too much or your kidneys malfunction. Consuming an excessive amount of foods high in purines or using medications like aspirin, niacin, or diuretics can also cause an increase in uric acid levels. After that, uric acid crystals may develop and assemble in the joints. This illness is called gout and is characterized by uncomfortable inflammation. Sometimes it may result in kidney stones too.
Let’s learn more about gout and its causes now.
A kind of arthritis known as gout is characterized by abrupt attacks of pain and swelling in and around the joints. High blood uric acid levels are the cause of gout. The hard crystal deposits that might result from this uric acid have the potential to cause more severe swelling and deformity. In addition, the bones and cartilage may suffer severe damage due to chronic gout. Gout is a chronic condition that requires correct treatment, including medicines and a diet high in the right foods. Some causes may produce gout flare-ups and exacerbate the discomfort.
Healthy uric acid levels in men and women
According to a report, uric acid levels should range from 2.4 to 6.0 mg/dL in women and 3.4 to 7.0 mg/dL in men. The report further says that the crystals begin to develop in urine as uric acid levels rise above 7 mg/dL, which can lead to kidney stones and other gout-related issues. In addition, men experience elevated uric acid issues more frequently than women do.
Purine-rich foods and beverages raise uric acid levels. A few of such food items are:-
- Red meat
- Organ meats like liver
- Seafood (especially salmon, shrimp, lobster, and sardines)
- Alcohol and foods containing high fructose corn syrup (especially beer, including non-alcohol beer)
Elevated uric acid levels in the body can cause a condition called hyperuricemia, which is a sickness. Urate (or uric acid) crystals may occur due to hyperuricemia. These crystals can accumulate in the joints and lead to gout, a painful form of arthritis. They may also become lodged there and develop kidney stones.
High uric acid levels can cause permanent bone, joint, and tissue damage and kidney and heart disease if left untreated. Moreover, studies have linked elevated uric acid levels to fatty liver disease, high blood pressure, and type 2 diabetes.
Hyperuricemia
Elevated uric acid levels in the blood are known as hyperuricemia. Your bloodstream is where uric acid enters after passing via the liver. To maintain “normal” levels, most of it is expelled (taken from your body) in urine or moves through your intestines. High uric acid levels (hyperuricemia) might have;
- Primary (purine-related increases in uric acid levels), or
- Secondary (high uric acid levels brought on by another illness or condition) causes
As a result, the body occasionally produces more uric acid than it can effectively eliminate
CAUSES
Causes of high uric acid levels
Primary hyperuricemia
- Increased uric acid generation from purine
- The blood has high uric acid levels because your kidneys cannot remove it
Secondary hyperuricemia
- Certain malignancies or chemotherapy drugs may bring on an elevated rate of cell death. High uric acid levels can be noticed before chemotherapy is given. However, chemotherapy is typically the cause of it
- Tumor lysis syndrome may happen after treatment because there is frequently a large quantity of cellular deterioration quickly. If you undergo chemotherapy for some forms of leukemia, lymphoma, or multiple myeloma and a lot of the illness is present, you may be at risk for tumor lysis syndrome
- Kidney illness may impair your ability to eliminate uric acid from your body, leading to hyperuricemia
- Medication – can result in elevated blood levels of uric acid
- Endocrine or metabolic disorders, such as some types of diabetes or acidosis, can bring on hyperuricemia
- Kidney issues could result from elevated uric acid levels, or they might not. Individuals with high uric acid levels can live a long time without getting gout or gouty arthritis (arthritis means “joint inflammation”). About 20% of patients with high uric acid levels never develop gout, and some gout sufferers have uric acid levels in their blood that are just slightly increased
