The pain of gout is caused by uric acid crystals lodging in the joints (usually big toe). Many years ago it was thought gout came from eating rich foods, and there were strict rules about food. I don't know if supplements would help, but I think not. There is a prescription drug called Allopurinol which prevents the uric acid crystals from forming.You need to have a doctor's prescription. It worked wonders for my husband, and he can eat anything he wants.
