Soup (stock, Chinese, dried)

Soup (stock, Chinese, dried) is low in purines and generally safe for people with gout in normal portions. A typical 245 g serving has about 42 mg of purines, about 10% of a ~400 mg working daily target.

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

Across forms of soup:BC· 3–46 mg per serving

Value is per 100g of the dried stock, not prepared soup. A serving uses only a small amount of stock (a few grams) made up with water, so a bowl of prepared soup delivers a small fraction of this concentrated per-100g figure.
