Alkalizing Grapes Help Dissolve Uric Acid Crystals for Joint Pain Relief

by JB Bardot



Eating grapes and other fruits rich in potassium can dissolve uric acid crystals to lessen gout pain and rheumatoid arthritis symptoms. Chilled, baked, roasted, juiced or grilled, grapes enhance all food groups from appetizers to salads and side dishes. Grapes may be eaten straight-up or blended into a fruit juice smoothie with other fruit or vegetable juices to help maintain alkalinity in the blood and urine.

Grapes Help Dissolve Uric Acid Crystals for Natural Pain Relief

When the blood and urine are kept slightly alkaline, acid wastes are more easily eliminated resulting in reduced bouts of rheumatoid arthritis and painful gout recurrences. Uric acid crystals, formed as a result of lowered kidney function, are dissolved in alkaline urine, allowing them to be removed from the blood stream and preventing deposits in the joints of gout patients.

Regular meals or snacks may be modified with additional nutrition by including grapes. Create a fruit juice swirl by mixing grapes in a blender with strawberries, blue berries, tart cherries, a spoonful of raw honey or maple syrup and a splash of water for a delicious snack and arthritis pain management. Grape juice also does the trick; however, whether you’re eating whole grapes or juice, always choose organic. Grapes are heavily treated with pesticides, making them one of the dirty dozen foods to avoid unless you’re eating organic.

Skip the sugary syrup on pancakes and top your flap jacks with a mash of grapes and strawberries instead. Snack on grapes to relieve hunger twinges or quench thirst, adding to the body’s ability to protect itself against debilitating arthritis joint pain and agonizing gout flare-ups. Rather than consuming harmful drugs and medicines with possible side effects, keep a bunch of grapes on hand to dissolve uric acid crystals for gout pain relief. Grapes are high in Vitamins A and C and loaded with antioxidants.

A long time ago, I don't know why I had uric acid joint pain for a few days, but I do remember epsom salts improved it notably. Using magnesium chloride might have worked even better. See my experiences with different forms of magnesium here.

Halved and frozen grapes are delicious.

YES! Especially on a hot day! Better than ice cream, IMHO.

One thing I don't like about grapes is that they're often loaded with pesticides. Once I compared home grown grapes with commercial, and the difference was huge.
