The reason it is so contradictory is that all the OLD information is still circulating out there.
More recent findings are showing that the old dietary advice might be wrong simply because the person suffereing from gout has more imbalances in the body and just not eating meat or eggplant is not the fix.

Please read the article I posted for you from Mark Sisson and find some other recent studies.

If you want to just relieve symptoms, the band aid of cutting out certain foods will not heal the underlying problems. They have to be addressed to completely clear up the problems.
