General information, not a substitute for advice from your doctor or dietitian.
How much can I eat?
A typical serving is about 70 g, which delivers 69 mg of purines, about 17% of a normal day's purine budget.
Why grade A
Low risk in a typical serving. A great everyday choice for a gout-friendly diet.
Per 100 g (for comparison)
Moderate for gout (50–150 mg/100g).
Low for gout (< 3 g/100g).
These are plant purines. Research links purines from vegetables, legumes, and mushrooms far more weakly to gout flares than purines from meat and seafood, so the per-100g figure overstates the real risk here.
