Does green tea (honey and lemon flavour) increase uric acid levels? I have uric acid 6.5 (maximum reference range 7).

Most of the time, a high uric acid level occurs when your kidneys don't eliminate uric acid efficiently. Things that may cause this slow-down in the removal of uric acid include rich foods, being overweight, having diabetes, taking certain diuretics (sometimes called water pills) and drinking too much alcohol. Let's have a detailed discussion to ensure proper treatment.
