Thanks for this ! Gout seems to be a very individual thing. I'm glad someone shed some light on purines because I can eat smoked mackerel etc without experiencing symptoms. I rarely buy it though due to the salt content and calories. I can eat any meat etc without symptoms also. I think some food additives in processed foods are quite unhealthy and can be a factor. If I stay with certain foods I can control it but it becomes depressing. I've found some causes by using exclusion diets and trying different combinations.
