Friday, January 22. High UA so I might as well keep it up until I start the next supplement trial.

So chocolate does not lower UA. Well, that was expected, really. Becoming free from the risk of gout attacks is a long, hard slog. There is no miracle cure for gout flare-ups. Or hyperuricemia. Or metabolic syndrome. Just the steady grind until it stops.
