Gout is a form of joint inflammation that is caused by crystal build up (uric acid) leading to a painful discomfort. People suffering from gout either produce an excess of uric acid or their bodies lack the ability to efficiently remove it from the system. Mature males are especially susceptible to this disease. Women after their monthly periods have ceased are also at risk.

Home remedies for Gout

• Drink fresh vegetable juice. A great example of this one is cucumber or carrot juice.
• Squeeze half a lemon in a glass of water. Drink this solution every before meal, thrice a day to get rid of excess uric acid.
• Drink ten to twelve glasses of water every day to wash away the acid and toxins in your body.
• Combine apple cider vinegar and honey. Drink two tablespoons of this solution before going to sleep.
• Dip your feet in warm water and two cups of salt solution.
• Immediately put some cold compress of ice cubes on the painful area to alleviate the pain.
• Soak your body, focusing on the problem areas, in warm water mixed with half cup of ginger powder.
