Prevent Gout and Joint Pain by Flushing Out Uric Acid Crystals
Uric acid crystals form as a result of an unhealthy lifestyle and if left unchecked, can cause pain in the joints or even lead to gout. These crystals form when the body fails to eliminate waste efficiently or when waste is created in large amounts. Uric acid forms during the process of breaking down purines, these are chemicals that are present in many types of foods and also occur naturally in the body. When the kidneys fail to remove uric acid, the crystals form and are then deposited in the joints.
