Nature Cure These purins are waste products and are readily converted into uric acid. The Chemistry of Food and Nutrition Vegetable foods, however, contain no uric acid and meat but a very small quantity. The Chemistry of Food and Nutrition This is not for the alleged reason that they contain purins, or as some misname it, uric acid; but because the digestive organs are unequal to the task. The Chemistry of Food and Nutrition As meat contains a comparatively large quantity of purins and other bodies called extractives, it is probable that such quantities have an injurious effect, quite apart from the question of uric acid production. The Chemistry of Food and Nutrition Dr. Haig of London has done excellent work in the investigation of uric-acid poisoning, but he becomes one-sided when he makes uric acid the scapegoat for all disease conditions originating in the organism. Nature Cure An excess of uric acid is commonly associated with gout and similar diseases. The Chemistry of Food and Nutrition Sodium chloride diminishes the solvent action of water on uric acid and the urates; but potassium salts, on the contrary, do not, they may even increase the action. The Chemistry of Food and Nutrition Dr. Haig says that, if the reflux of the blood take place within two or three seconds, the circulation is normal and not obstructed by uric acid. Nature Cure If, however, the blood does not return for four or more seconds, it is a sign that the capillary circulation is obstructed by colloid uric acid occlusion. Nature Cure As stated before, uric acid is undoubtedly one of the most common causes of disease and therefore deserves especial attention. Nature Cure Very many are the hypotheses which have been propounded on the cause of gout and the part played by uric acid; many have had to be discarded or greatly modified. The Chemistry of Food and Nutrition Because of this interference with the normal circulation and distribution of the blood, uric acid produces many annoying and deleterious effects. Nature Cure As a consequence, the blood becomes again saturated with uric acid and the collaemic symptoms reappear. Nature Cure Their blood is continually filled with uric acid to the point of saturation and the extra amount contained in the coffee or alcohol repeats the process of uric-acid precipitation, the temporary stimulation and relief. Nature Cure Like urea, uric acid is one of the end products of protein digestion. Nature Cure Purins are metabolised in the body to uric acid, about half of the uric acid produced in the body disappears as such, being disintegrated, whilst the other half remains to be excreted by the kidneys. The Chemistry of Food and Nutrition Every time this precipitation of uric acid from the circulation is repeated, some of the morbid materials remain and accumulate in different parts and organs. Nature Cure The diseases caused by permanent deposits of uric acid in the tissues are called arthritic diseases, because the accumulations frequently occur in the joints. Nature Cure During the prevalence of the collaemic symptoms, that is, when the circulation is saturated with uric acid, the urine is also highly acid. Nature Cure The principal ingredient in the formation of uric acid is nitrogen, one of the six elements which enter into all proteid or albuminous food materials, also called nitrogenous foods. Nature Cure Dr. Haig ascribes to the presence of uric acid in the system, not only gout and rheumatism, but epilepsy, hysteria, mental and bodily depression, diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain, etc. The Chemistry of Food and Nutrition I have repeatedly stated that xanthines have the same effect upon the system as uric acid. Nature Cure This increase of weight and the attendant discomfort correspond to the increase of uric acid in the blood and the accompanying symptoms of collaemia. Nature Cure |
