            <description><![CDATA[ Thanks for your replies. <br />
<br />
The last time I got gout was about 2 years ago when I first had my covid19 injection. (I had a bad time with side effects, taking flecainide for lots of afib) . Prior to then maybe 10 years before, so gout is a rare complaint for me and I am trying to find the cause.<br />
<br />
It looks like I can rule out flecinide and fructose consumption as I have been eating fruit for breakfast for 5 years.<br />
<br />
I am still getting over covid19 which I had a couple of weeks ago, so maybe that&#039;s the cause, although I wouldn&#039;t expect so.]]></description>

<br />
That&#039;s because it&#039;s a very effective anti-inflammatory for the heart. I know that because in one of the rare instances of another EP being ahead of Natale, I received that from my (good) local EP in 2014 and he explained the purpose.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ One cause of uric acid is fructose consumption.  University of Colorado researcher &amp; nephrologist, Rick Johnson MD, has studied fructose for many years.
