The acid conductor

What do obesity, insulin resistance, diabetes, fatty liver, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, stroke, neurological disorders, and premature death have in common? They are all fueled by high levels of uric acid, which puts us at risk of developing or exacerbating potentially life-threatening diseases.

A fascinating blend of science and practical advice, Dr. Pulmutter's book reveals the deadly truth about uric acid and provides invaluable strategies for managing its levels, including how to:
• reduce fructose and foods high in purines through simple dietary changes;
• lower uric acid levels naturally by consuming cherries, vitamin C, quercetin and coffee;
• determine which commonly taken medications increase our uric acid;
• introduce changes in our lifestyle such as restorative sleep and physical exercise;
• test your uric acid levels easily at home – a routine test that is usually performed by your doctor, but is usually overlooked.

Featuring an innovative diet to lower uric acid levels, 35 delicious recipes, self-assessment tests, and a 21-day regimen to lower it, the book arms readers with the information they need to tackle this hidden danger and achieve better fitness and a longer, healthier life.
