Liver Pate

Liver Pate is higher risk. Keep portions small and occasional, especially during a flare. A typical 30 g serving has about 24 mg of purines, about 6% of a ~400 mg working daily target.

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

This is liver (or another organ gout guidance names by name). It measures only moderate purine here because it is fat-diluted or a small portion, but liver and kidney are the organ meats most strongly linked to gout, so we rate it Limit, not safe. Keep portions very small, and skip it during a flare.

Even a large serving stays well under a day's purines.

Portion size is what matters most here, and it’s easy to misjudge by eye. A kitchen scale makes it simple.

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.
