Octopus Organs

Octopus Organs are fine in moderation. Watch your portion size, especially during a flare. A typical 113 g serving has about 90 mg of purines, about 23% of a ~400 mg working daily target.
General information, not a substitute for advice from your doctor or dietitian.
How much can I eat?
Up to about 9 oz (250 g) keeps you under half a day's purines.
Octopus Organs fit in moderation, so portion is the thing to get right.

Why grade C: per 100 g and processing
Per 100 g (for comparison)
Moderate for gout (50–150 mg/100g).
Low for gout (< 3 g/100g).
Processing: NOVA 1 of 4 (unprocessed or minimally processed). How processing affects the grade.
Diet is part of the picture, not all of it
For most people the body makes the majority of its own uric acid. Food contributes the smaller share. Eating well lowers your risk and helps you feel in control, but for many people diet alone does not bring uric acid down enough to stop flares. Medication often does the heavy lifting. Use these grades to make easier daily choices, and work with your doctor on the full plan.
