You could have up to about 4 oz (110 g) before this reaches half a ~400 mg working daily purine target.

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

Why grade D

Higher risk. Keep portions small and occasional, especially during a flare.

Eating omega-3-rich fatty fish is associated with fewer recurrent gout flares, independent of purine intake; the benefit is from whole fish, not fish-oil supplements.

This benefit does not change the grade. Rainbow Trout is still graded D on purine, so keep the portion small and occasional.
