Arnold's Way - Raw Food and Gout

[lovsoup]

Amazing Vito!!

[lovsoup]

LOL... Love the Arnold's T-shirt!!! so true

[MsSweetPuppy]

okay, you're the authority. You win.  Is that better.

[Tritonprince]

Arnold, I too suffer Gout attacks periodically. I just begun juicing raw vegetables and love the energy and alert feeling I get from juicing. Presently, I drink raw Spinach, Kale, Celery, Parsley with Pineapple and Green Grapes. I feel great. You did not say in your video which foods are good for Gout attacks. Could you write me back sir?

[MercuryRis]

Im my experience the best way to fight it is with allopurinol and cochisine, but I could be wrong. Vegan, thats amazing.

[122172639]

@MercuryRis Yeah, it's amaaazing that all you have to do to correct gout is boom, bunny food dieting... tell that to the tens of thousands who tried that for a year and only got more gassy, more cramped, blockages, fun! Honestly, if the guy was suffering gout for 30 years and diet cured it, gout wasn't his problem. Insulin resistance, on the other hand, does get taken care of with diet and does come with nerve pain aplenty for many. Granted, I'm a neuro, not a GI, but gout's not rocket science.

[MsSweetPuppy]

@122172639

That comment was pretty lame... and negative.

[122172639]

@MsSweetPuppy it was in reference to a mention of allopurinol and colcrys... it's LAME for people to sell false hope. Gout is EASY to treat, and yes, diet is important, but guess what? FRUCTOSE is what increases uric acid levels most, so while it is ABSOLUTELY imperative to toss out soda, sugary food, *AGAVE which is higher in fructose than HFCS* and most of all fruit juice, gout does NOT require a raw food diet, and many who eat a higher proportion of fruits than normal are at increased risk.

[MsSweetPuppy]

@122172639

I didn't see this part until later. I have a friend, who is black and he's very obese, over 400 pounds (not sure of his weight). He had gout and has trouble holding a job due to weight and gout. He can't work right now, his weight is affecting him so much. I know he's slowly killing himself. I also have a serious weight problem. I've heard differing info about whether gout can be cured by raw food diet. If I myself don't do something, I may also die.

[122172639]

@MsSweetPuppy Raw food brings its own deficiencies.If you want a be all and end all in terms of what changed, it's FIBER,bound to its food source,NOT added later(enriched grains),not powder/pills.Raw diets can increase fiber,but lightly cooking most vegetables makes their nutrients most bioavailable&'soak-rinse-cook' takes out toxins in beans&makes their proteins digestible.Vegan diets still need animal/insect-sourced B12;B12 in kelp etc=not absorbed.Donating blood also lowers uric acid buildup.

[MsSweetPuppy]

@122172639

That comment made no sense whatsoever. I know that eating fruits and veggies mostly is very healthy. I haven't taken that route, I'm almost dead.

[122172639]

@MsSweetPuppy Eating mostly vegetables, yes, is healthy--no one is denying that; no one should deny science, either. All foods are chains of sugars,proteins,etc bound together.*Lightly* cooking makes the nutrients easier to absorb(&kills pathogens),but JUICING only separates the carbs&increases the absorption of sugar chains like FRUCTOSE,upping your liver's uric acid buildup. A VARIETY is still crucial&should include fatty fish,which DECREASE uric acid over time&DECREASE your body fat content.

[122172639]

@MsSweetPuppy One last thing:if you're worried about "fat" being the culprit,check how the body handles it. Fructose is what turns to fat,NOT fat.Fat is stored as glycogen;so are proteins.Carbs are not all evil; FIBER is what you need in FOOD forms,which is why vegetables are crucial (metamucil only makes bowels softer-the difference between SOLUBLE&non-soluble fiber is important).Fructose,from juice/soda/agave/fruit is what makes people fat.Fructose is treated identically to BOOZE by the liver.

[blsmitty]

I have a very severe case of gout!!! My uric acid tests come back normal. I had to go to UCLA to find treatment. I have to take a high dosage of Alopurinol every day to control it...no matter how or what I eat.

[122172639]

@blsmitty Just curious... since it *finally* has an FDA approval (so most importantly is regulated), have you tried Colcrys? My clinic uses it for other issues--a couple autoimmune conditions and more exciting repairing damaged tissue particularly in the lower back where MOST people who come into my office have had an injury.. but in checking out the pharm info, it's pretty scary how much was sold as "colchicine" in the last 30 years in particular that had no colchicine in it. Regulation=good.

[floyd526]

gout is not fun b/c i have gout

[TeaPips]

@floyd526 so if you didn't have it then gout would be fun?

[jconusn]

The dude on the right freaks me out, but I am going to eat much less to no meat all the same. I have spen 5 hours researching today alone, and was diagnosed 4 days ago, I think it's the best way to go....we'll see

[Catherine8raw]

@jconusn - research fructose causing gout. Candida and gout

[drew7473]

@jconusn me too something is wrong with this cat.

[unacarafea]

I recommend Alopurinol. See your doctor for further information. You can eat raw food if you want but remember that there are a zillion whack jobs out there that can recommend any and every thing via the internet without siting any credible studies. If a raw diet cures gout, you don't have a very bad case of gout and you are very lucky. I need a consistent treatment with drugs and a steady diet of reasonable food (the list is long) to keep gout away. SEE YOUR DOCTOR.

[Chrisisms]

@unacarafea Thanks for the advice to take drugs...

[jeremysmola]

as a former raw foodist, to answer some questions.

Raw food diet does not include meat, dairy, cheese, or any processed or pasturized items.

As a raw foodist you would be eating raw veggies, raw fruits, raw nuts, and a ton of sprouted items for your protien.

It stops gout by knocking out all the purene laden foods.

Optimum health institute and hippocrities are health clinics that use raw food to treat heath problems from cancer to reproduction issues.

[unacarafea]

I had no idea mental hospitals gave access to YouTube, to it's patients. Nice!

[jgfergus]

You just proved they do!!

[unacarafea]

Hey, I guess you proved me wrong and set me straight! Go back to your 60's videos and that phony peace sign, douche bag.

Raw food is great but it does not cure gout. It all depends on what you eat, not if it's raw. Just common sense.

[jgfergus]

Name calling just proves that you are a very insecure person. The only way you can build yourself up is by knocking others down. You are a sad little boy.

[unacarafea]

Boy, you must be one of the mental patients on the video. You are the one that called me a mental patient and a sad little boy. At least it proves that I was correct when calling you a douche bag. Fortunately, calling me names does not affect me. It does not knock me down because I am a little more secure than someone that thinks name calling knocks them down...........dick head.

[jgfergus]

Thanks for proving my point.

[unacarafea]

That's a very easy and typical thing to say when you realize you have no point. What point? If anyone knew what your point was, your post might make sense. Arguing with a neanderthal is useless. Especially on YouTube. Enjoy your raw diet and 60's, 70's and 80's videos. I take pity on you. Go....go with my blessing, my child.

[Catherine8here]

OK, peace, I think it would be better to ask you what you reccomend for gout? It is stupid argueing and I realise I don't know everything.

[Catherine8here]

raw has a more alkaline effect on body (kale/acidic limes etc.) and neutralise uric, oxalate, pyrophospahte calcium crystals. Do your research!

[Catherine8here]

yeah, which one did you come from then?

[m3tallih0lic]

sooo raw meat too?? or all veggies??

[canvoodoo]

dick head shut up

[derek34786]

ive had gout 6 times and im in shape at 6ft.. 180 lbs.

[quinzingara]

Asparagus gives me the gout..it's true!

[tubofbologna]

ttttt today junior!

[truthmaster1234]

with gods raw food is the best way

[SKYPILOT60]

what's with all the negativity guys?

[dodojardin]

the fat guy's reading his speech, look closely at his eyes.. if this is a scam, and I suppose it is one, then I hope they die in pain

[juice1juice]

rofl!! you're right dude.. eating fruits and veggies are a total scam!

[aklnj]

Dodo, are you for real?. Raw food is a scam??. Unreal.

[dodojardin]

the fat guy's reading his speech, look closely at his eyes.. if this is a scam, and I suppose it is one, then I hope they die in pain

[bighammerman69]

santabarbaraguy on ebay sells something called uricinex. It DOES NOT work.

[shwillit80]

im 28 and usually get gout in my feet last year ive had it in my elbow and wrist

[tubofbologna]

that means you are not treating it right and will have to have serious surgury

[VUandChips]

Why can't Arnold speak properly? This fact alone puts me off going mostly raw.

[juice1juice]

I know what you mean.. this guy is really not the best person to be promoting this type of lifestyle. But yeah .. I think the thing is if you're already feeling ok eating whatever then why should you change.. most people who go raw feel like shit and want to die.. and then end up benefiting from it after a while. .. or after then have been sick for a long time. if that makes any sense.

[moonbaby38]

thats for the tips guys! i will try that beter than chewing off my own foot. cause at this stage its close to that!

[sog305]
