Yeah, it’s not sugar for me. I don’t really eat sweets and drink mostly water, wine and espresso.
I think it’s the rare bit of hard liquor and certain foods. So far I’ve ID’d shellfish, asparagus, anchovy, cauliflower, processed turkey, hmm that’s about it.
The prescription drug that works best for me, having gout attacks since the 80’s, really bad, multiple ER visits, best treatment is Colchicine(3000 year old treatment for Pharoahs), a tiny pill with big benefits. Whenever I think Gout is raising its ugly head, I take two pills, and if it starts hurting after that 2, I take one more every hour or so until Gout goes away. Get a Rhuematologist, Gout is his gig. Gout will destroy your joints, I don’t have many undamaged joints left.
