Frequently asked questions
Is this medical advice?
No. This protocol is for education only. It is built to help you and your physician work together to navigate your health, not to replace a clinician who knows your history. Bring it to your appointment and never start, stop, or change a medication on your own.
Do I need to give my email?
No. The PDF is free to download. No email, no sign-up, no strings.
Can I really prevent gout with diet?
For most people, yes. Gout is largely modifiable. Lowering uric acid through diet, lifestyle, and the right protective foods dramatically reduces the chance of a flare. Some people with a genetic predisposition need to be more vigilant or add medication.
