So are legumes. I’ve seen just as much gout in vegetarians as I have meat eaters in 3 decades of medical practice.

It’s not as simple as meat diet = gout.

Genetics, plus diet, plus hydration, plus alcohol consumption and other competing metabolic waste, meds competing for metabolism and excretion is about it, I think.

I understsnd what you’re saying here. However meat contains more protein than beans, so it’s worse if you have gout.
