How much can I eat?
A typical serving is about 125 g, which delivers 20 mg of purines, or about 5% of a ~400 mg working daily target.
There is a little fructose here. Fructose raises uric acid whatever its source, but at this amount it is a minor contributor next to the purine number above.
Evidence: Ayoub-Charette et al., J Nutr 2021 (fructose by food source) · White et al., Am J Clin Nutr 2018 (whole apple vs. a fructose drink, matched dose)
Even a large serving stays well within a ~400 mg working daily purine target.
Only part of these purines counts toward gout: the 20 mg here counts as roughly 12 mg toward your gout risk.
Marinara Sauce is an easy choice to keep on hand.
