In a recent study looking at the metabolic domino effect of a diet-caused disease, scientists were able to show that (easily preventable) spikes in this certain acid is linked to increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
For those suffering from gout, a diet-caused disease that is very similar to arthritis, the inflammation and problems that high levels of uric acid cause are even more troubling.
Scientists in the Netherlands recently found that high blood serum levels of uric acid, the key culprit in the widespread inflammation and pain associated with gout, also contribute to a much-increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
The ten-year study showed that even after adjusting for co-morbidities like unhealthy triglycerides, obesity, and high blood pressure, those with high uric acid levels were at least 43% more likely to develop diabetes…even as much as 86% in some cases.
Both gout and type 2 diabetes can be reversed using diet and lifestyle modifications, but people suffering from either or both conditions are also heavily marketed to by pharmaceutical companies.
While there are drugs that help symptoms of the diseases, they carry dangerous side effects and do nothing to solve the underlying problems of why the diseases are present in the first place.

Hi Jodi – interesting article. But what is missing is the fact that the human body does NOT manufacture uric acid. Only FUNGI do. Uric acid is the by-product of yeast/fungal overgrowths inside the body. And since diabetes is caused by yeast/fungi also, there is your connection. Both diabetes and gout can be handled and even cured by following the yeast-free diet and taking anti-fungals such as oregano oil, olive leaf extract, caprylic acid, etc. which starve yeast and reduce inflammation. This addresses the underlying problem of “why the diseases are present in the first place.” See The Fungus Link to Health Problems and Infectious Diabetes, both by Doug Kaufmann, and Recaging the Beast – all at Amazon.
I’m already diabetic but as far as the ACID problem, my doctor told me to stay away from coffee, spicy foods and if I want to drink tea, hrerbal would be best for me. I’d like to know if I have acid reflux because I don’t have any burning feeling, it must be something else. It really bothers me with all the built-up phlems in my throat. Please talk to me, it never ends
also, my sugar is controled and I’m so miserable with my throat, the built-up mucus is ridiculous. What should I do? the only thing that my doctor knows is given me pills and I stopped taken them because theses pills have a bad smell and it comes out of my nostrils when I breath, it scares me. I went to see a throat doctor, he’s the one who told that I have acid reflux, i don’t think so. MY diabetes don’t bother me, only the so-called acid reflux. I need to know what it is
