Gout is one of history\’s many distinct diseases that has been frequently plaguing man since the dawn of civilization. With a variety of causes, the disease can be traced to some form of physiological imbalance of the body that results in excess quantities of uric acid to be stored instead of being flushed out. Uric formation occurs when the purine enters the bloodstream from foods and drinks a person consumes. The surplus amount then finds their way into the hollow spots of the joints such as the elbows, knees, and such other parts. This places a great strain on the kidneys, and if not treated immediately will more often than not cause kidney damage or renal failure.
