Historically, gout was known as \u201cthe king of diseases and the disease of kings\u201d or \u201cthe rich man\u2019s disease\u201d.<\/p>\nHistorically, gout was known as \u201cthe king of diseases and the disease of kings\u201d or \u201cthe rich man\u2019s disease\u201d.<\/p>\n
There may be no pain worse than GOUT. But it\u2019s usually not considered to be life threatening.<\/p>\n
A new study from the University of Limerick changes that.<\/p>\n
Because if you suffer from GOUT, you\u2019re at great risk of developing one of the most dangerous disease in today\u2019s modern world.<\/p>\n
The good news is that curing GOUT naturally is pretty easy and straightforward, and it will counteract the deadly disease as well.<\/p>\n
The researchers identified 68,897 patients with gout and 554,964 with no such diagnosis.<\/p>\n
They found people with gout were twice as likely to develop advanced kidney disease. <\/p>\n
After adjusting their results to exclude all other possible kidney disease risks like high blood pressure and diabetes, gout sufferers still had a 29 percent higher risk.<\/p>\n
They defined advanced kidney disease as one or more of the following:<\/p>\n
Kidney function deteriorating to less than 10 percent of normal.<\/p>\n
Need for dialysis or kidney transplant.<\/p>\n
Twice as high blood creatinine as normal.<\/p>\n
Kidney disease related death.<\/p>\n
People with gout had more than twice the risk of developing end-stage kidney disease, which is almost complete kidney failure; this can potentially lead to fatal consequences.<\/p>\n
Since the kidney disease risk is much higher for people with gout, it is important that you keep your uric acid levels under control to save your kidneys.<\/p>\n
