Gout is a type of arthritis caused by the buildup of uric acid crystals in the joints, leading to pain and inflammation. 

One of the main factors contributing to gout is the consumption of certain foods, particularly those high in purines, like meat and organ meats. When we eat these purine-rich foods, the body breaks down the purines into uric acid.

If the body produces too much uric acid or has difficulty getting rid of it, the uric acid can accumulate and form crystals in the joints, causing painful gout attacks.
