case 1: To remedy gout, you need to understand what it is, and what causes it. Certain foods contain purine, purines are then broken down into uric acid. People who suffer from gout are un able to process the uric acid from thier body, wich then crystalsizes in the joints.
The most effective way to remedy gout, is PREVENTION. stay away from nuts, alcohol, seafood, and organ meats. these foods can be eaten occasionally, but never with alcohol (alcohol inhibits the ability to process the uric acid drasticaly)
stress and injury also play a major role in gout attacks.
At the first sign of an attack. drink plenty of water. Pure black cherry juice is the quickest way to remove the uric acid crystals (has a coumpond that disolves the crystals) you can expect relief over nite. Stay off the effected area ! any movement of the joint will cause tissue damage. and will prolong the pain.
For pain, take ibuprofen, (NEVER ASPRIN !)
alternate hot and cold compresses and elevate.
Increase your potasium intake. ( bananas, Potatoes, spinach, ect)
above all, keep drinking black cherry juice, and lots of water.

case 2: I have suffered from gout for quite a few years. For the very longest time I thought it was an old sports injury recurring in my ankle. It would start in the ankle and by two days spread sometimes to the toe.
Unbearable seething pain that rakes over your entire body. Like someone taking pliers and trying to rip out your entire nerve endings through your toes. This barely describes the pain. Something like a toe should never hurt that bad, ever.
I have read many reports on Apple Cider Vinegar (it absolutely must have the "mother") helping with gout relief and also Baking Soda. Here's what I do and I have been gout free for a good couple of years now. Every night before bed I take a teaspoon (I eyeball it) of baking soda and a tablespoon of the ACV with about 6-8 ounces water and mix it up. It will fizz so be sure the glass is high enough. Drink it down and no more gout attacks.
Now I will admit sometimes I am really stupid and forget about the horrific pain that debilitates me for days and as such forget to take my cure. Then on top of it I will have some beer and bad foods over a long weekend and I will start to feel that ping of unbearable pain. If this happens try the mix about 3-10 times a day.
I know what everybody says about High Blood Pressure, but high blood pressure is better than having to saw your leg off with a rusty knife. I can fix the High Blood Pressure by cutting out the rest of the sodium for a few days, but gout is a killer.
