Reasons for the increase in uric acid
Dietary habits: The main reason is eating foods that are high in purines.
Red meat (goat, beef), liver and other organs.
Some types of sea fish (sardines, mackerel, shrimp).
Drinks containing fructose (soda, soft drinks).
Lifestyle: Excessive alcohol consumption, especially beer, can quickly increase uric acid levels.
Body weight: In people who are obese, the body produces more uric acid, and the kidneys have difficulty excreting it.
Kidney problems: If the kidneys function slowly, uric acid will accumulate in the blood.
Medications: Some drugs to lower BP (Diuretics) can cause an increase in uric acid levels.
Genetic factors: Some people also have a hereditary predisposition to high uric acid.
