How much can I eat?
A typical serving is about 130 g, which delivers 28 mg of purines, or about 7% of a ~400 mg working daily target.
Even a large serving stays well within a ~400 mg working daily purine target.
These are plant purines, which research links far more weakly to flares: the 28 mg here counts as roughly 8 mg toward your gout risk.
Canned Chickpeas are an easy choice to keep on hand.
