"Never judge a book by its cover" is a famous phrase that means we should not judge the importance or characterize things only by looking at their size. Small things can also have a major impact on our lives, just like Kidneys have on our bodies. Kidneys are fist-sized organs responsible for various functions, including:

• Filtration of blood
• Removing Toxins and Waste Compounds from blood
• Removing excess amount water and other fluids
• Producing hormones for a strong metabolism, and many more.

However, despite being of such importance, many people worldwide suffer from various kinds of kidney problems. Gout Kidney Disease is one such caused by a various number of factors. This article will explain to you all about Gout and how taking the Gout problem treatment in Ayurveda can give permanent relief from it.

What Is Gout or Gouty Arthritis?

Gout is a disease caused by poor metabolism. It primarily affects the joints of the patients suffering from it. This is why the Gout problem is also known as Gouty Arthritis since it is related to joints. The leading cause of Gout or Gouty Arthritis is associated with the improper metabolism of amino-acid called purines. Purines play an essential role in the normal functioning of the body. They are an integral part of the DNA.

In Gout, Purines break down, resulting in the production of Uric Acid in the body. Now, if the production of Uric Acid increases abruptly, the level of Uric Acid suddenly increases in the blood. Though it might not result in any problem in a few months, however, if it happens over some time, it results in the formation of Sodium Urate, which is a sodium salt of uric acid. Soon, it crystallizes inside the body and accumulates in the joins.

The presence of Sodium Urate hampers the smooth functioning of joints and often results in inflammation all around them. Once these symptoms are visible or the patients feel extreme pain in the joints, it might be a possible case of Gouty Arthritis. It has been observed that the Toes are the most affected ones when a patient suffers from Gouty Arthritis. However, it can affect Hands, Shoulders, and other joints.

What Causes Gout or Gouty Arthritis?

Gouty Arthritis is a type of inherited disease, i.e. it can be passed on to the children by their parents during birth. However, in most cases, this disease affects males as compared to females. There could be various causes that result in this problem, such as:

• Consuming food items that produce excessive amounts of uric acid
• Kidneys are not able to remove excess amount of waste compounds
• Consuming food products rich in protein like red meat, fish, Cottage Cheese, etc.
• Drinking an excessive amount of alcohol
• Not drinking enough quantity of water, and many more.

The severity of Gouty Arthritis

Mostly, patients are unaware that their consumption of an excessive amount of food items rich in fatty acids might produce Uric Acid in the body. As a result, this problem might increase gradually over some time. Once the condition starts becoming severe, it might result in the following symptoms:

• Extreme pain in joints
• Inflammation in joints
• Severe pain in the joints even at the slight touch

Despite the severity of these symptoms, Gout problem treatment in Ayurveda offers all kinds of natural methods free from any side effects. Now, as we have understood everything about this problem, let us discuss how Ayurvedic methods used in treating the Gout problem are different and much more effective than other kinds of treatments. 

Why Prefer Ayurveda for Gouty Arthritis?

Before getting into Ayurveda, let us discuss what does allopathy has for Gouty patients. When it comes to Allopathic treatment, the only thing we could make out is the number of medicines made from drugs. Though these medicines are successful in elevating the symptoms of this disease, they usually end up making the livers weak. 

Even if we talk about the Gouty problem, the most symptom a patient faces is severe pain in the joints. Doctors usually prescribe heavy doses of pain killers that result in hundred other problems if consumed in large quantities. Moreover, in kidney diseases, if the medicines fail, patients are referred for complicated procedures like Kidney Dialysis or Kidney Transplant. 

Coming back to Gouty problem treatment in Ayurveda, the Ayurvedic doctors have something different for the patients. First of all, Ayurvedic treatment never includes medicines that are made of drugs. These medicines might give short-term relief, but Ayurveda wants to heal patients from the root level. This is the reason. Ayurvedic doctors focus on the complete health of a kidney patient. 

Though there are medicines in Ayurveda, all these medicines are made from rare herbs and plants with medicinal qualities. These medicines affect the root cause of the problem, thus heal the patients gradually. Apart from medicines, Ayurveda also improves the Ahar (Diet) and Vihar (Lifestyle). This is the reason why Ayurveda has treated millions of customers with severe kidney diseases where other doctors denied any treatment. 

Here's a list of some of the Lifestyle changes recommended by Ayurvedic health experts:

• Exercising daily for strong metabolism
• Sleeping for an adequate number of hours
• Meditating in the morning
• Doing Yoga asana for at least half an hour
• Avoiding the urge to suppressing urine
• Avoiding stressful activities, etc.

Here's a list of some of the Lifestyle changes recommended by Ayurvedic health experts:

• Avoiding consuming excessive food items rich in animal-based protein like Red Meat, Fish, Cottage Cheese, etc. 
• Avoiding excessive consumption of alcohol
• Avoiding excessive consumption of tobacco
• Consuming more plant-based protein
• Eating more fibrous foods
• Limiting the intake of dairy products (if suffering from kidney disease)
• Avoiding junk food
• Drinking a sufficient quantity of water, etc.

Note: All the patients must note that all the quantity of food products and water intake must be according to the Ayurvedic Doctor's advice.
