gout is a build up of crystals that get between the joints of your toes or knuckles.

Yeah well I'm just finishing my port and I'm off to walk the Irish Wolfhound, I'll have a slab of venison and a pipe in front of the fire before bed.
It’s excessive Uric acid, which crystallises in the joints. Particularly the big toe.
Never suffered from it, thankfully.
I want a sticky thread if I pop off to the pearly gates.
You can have the summer transfer thread that's stickied. We'll rename it and you'll be thought of in June, July and January.
I've seen some of this debate, so may have missed the answer, but isn't it mainly attributed to certain types of beer?
No, it's a bit of a twat and changes from person to person. I struggled for years but now have good control of it. My main triggers are seafood, acidic fruit, cauliflower, asparagus and some other veg. Mainly healthy things. I suspect some darker beers so avoid them.
Cherries are regarded as a good thing for gout but if I eat them I'm laid up for a week they are probably the worst thing I can eat.
No, I first had it after being made an Austrian dessert containing cherries, we thought I had sprained it from snowboarding. I can drink beer and wine all day and I wont get it.
