My uric acid is increased to 13.5 and my blood sugar level after fasting is 140 how can I reduce suggest me what to eat and what not to please

Question

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. Blood glucose fasting 140 mg, means you have diabetes. This needs treatment. Please get after food glucose test and HbA1c% done, which will give a clear idea about diabetes. Diet restriction, exercise and weight control do help in controlling blood glucose. But once diabetes is confirmed, drugs are needed to control the glucose along with other treatments. High uric acid in some people may not cause joint related pain or gout. To reduce uric acid, you will have to restrict foods containing purines and high protein diet. Foods like organ meat, red meat, sea foods (a number of fishes) contain very high purines. You will have avoid those. Thanks.
