Also listed as: Gnomefish, skin, raw

Gnomefish (skin) is high in purines or a known trigger. It is best avoided, especially during a flare.

General information, not a substitute for advice from your doctor or dietitian.

This purine value is measured on fish SKIN alone, where nucleoproteins concentrate. The edible flesh is much lower in purines, and skin is only a thin fraction of a skin-on gnomefish fillet. Do not use this figure to judge a normal portion.

How much can I eat?

A typical serving is about 85 g, which delivers 325 mg of purines, about 81% of a normal day's purine budget.
