  • Summary

  • The Gout Show is a new podcast about one of the oldest - and sorely misunderstood - health conditions. Gout is not just about painful toes or joints and it's not caused by diet. Gout is a serious medical condition impacting nearly 10 million Americans, and it can cause real medical problems if left untreated. But the good news is that it is very treatable. The Gout Show is hosted by Steve, who was recently diagnosed with gout, and we follow along on his mission to learn more about gout so that he can improve his own health. Steve talks with fellow patients and top medical experts while he explores the basics of gout symptoms, its causes, and the treatments available today. The Gout Show also debunks common myths about gout and includes useful tips for taking control of your health with gout. The Gout Show is for anyone who has or knows someone who has gout - to help you understand what living with it is all about - and how do it better. The Gout Show is brought to you by the non-profit Global Healthy Living Foundation. For more resources about gout, go to https://creakyjoints.org/thegoutshow/

    In episode 4 of The Gout Show, we meet Ross Weil, who was diagnosed with gout after toe pain sidelined him during a bachelor party ski trip. Ross attempted to treat his gout with diet changes, until he realized it was a lot of work — and not really helping. In this episode, gout experts will share which diet changes may help improve gout management, but explain that diet changes alone are rarely enough to control moderate to severe gout.
