Also, studies have shown that fluoride alleviates the effect of uric acid and thus greatly minimizes your chance of getting gout.
Surprisingly, I am a veggie who doesn’t drink, the food which appears to be triggering it for me is Quorn, so I will be cutting it out from now on.

Thanks for the info on fluoride, though it is not something I would consume personally. It had been 14 months since the last flare-up, so hopefully if I cut out the Quorn and ensure I don’t run out of vitamin C, I can avoid this for another couple of decades.
