Milk, Yoghurt & Dairy

Why ordinary dairy foods are not on a standard gout avoid-list.

Dairy is not a standard gout restriction

Milk and yoghurt are generally compatible with a balanced diet for people with gout. Some research has even found associations between lower-fat dairy intake and lower gout risk, but that does not make dairy a treatment.

Choose for your whole health

Sugar content, saturated fat, calories, allergies and personal preferences may matter more than gout for choosing between products.

No food replaces urate management

Diet can support health, but persistent hyperuricaemia may require a long-term treatment strategy.
