FAQ
Q: Who is susceptible to high uric acid?
A: High uric acid can affect anyone, but it's more common in men than women. This is because female hormone estrogen helps flush out uric acid. However, after menopause, estrogen levels decline, which can contribute to higher uric acid levels in women.
There are several risk factors associated with high uric acid and gout, which include alcohol consumption, purine- and fructose-rich foods, dehydration, obesity, kidney disease, high blood pressure and high blood glucose.
Q: What are the symptoms of high uric acid?
A: Not everyone with high uric acid will experience symptoms. This is why a blood test is often used to diagnose it. However, some symptoms of high uric acid can include:
Gout: This is the most common symptom which is characterized by sudden and intense pain, swelling, redness, and tenderness in the joints, often at the base of the big toe.
Kidney stones: High uric acid levels can contribute to the formation of kidney stones, which can cause severe pain in the lower back, side, or abdomen, along with pain or burning during urination.
Q: How does URICRestore manage high uric acid levels?
A: URICRestore tackles high uric acid levels through a multi-pronged approach. Firstly, it helps suppress specific enzymes involved in uric acid production within the body. Secondly, URICRestore addresses the impact of high fructose intake on uric acid metabolism. Excessive fructose consumption can lead to both increased production and decreased excretion of uric acid, raising the risk of gout. This formula works to regulate this process. Finally, URICRestore promotes healthy uric acid excretion by the kidneys. It does this by influencing transporters – increasing the activity of those that expel uric acid and suppressing those responsible for reabsorption. This combined action helps alleviate hyperuricemia (high uric acid in the blood) and potentially improves kidney function.
Q: Should I increase the dosage of URICRestore during gout flare-ups?
A: Yes, it is safe to temporarily increase the dosage of URICRestore to up to 4 capsules daily during gout flare-ups. It is best to take the 4 capsules separately throughout the day for sustained benefits. For additional support during a gout flare-up, you may want to complement with FlexC MAX EX to expedite the discomfort relief. FlexC MAX EX is a powerful formula targeting inflammation for effective pain relief.
Q: How fast can I see the results?
A: Studies suggest URICRestore could result in a significant reduction of blood uric acid levels within just 2 weeks of intake. Additionally, the powerful anti-inflammatory properties of URICRestore may contribute to some relief from gout-induced discomfort by up to 18% as early as 2 days after intake. Beyond gout, this vegan formula extends its potential benefits to those managing rheumatoid arthritis. Taking URICRestore for 8 weeks could significantly reduce morning stiffness and pain associated with rheumatoid arthritis, both upon waking and after activity.
Q: Should I continue taking URICRestore when my uric acid levels have restored to healthy levels?
A: Yes, even after achieving healthy uric acid levels, continuing URICRestore can help maintain this healthy balance. The body naturally produces uric acid, and certain foods are high in purines and fructose, which can also contribute to high uric acid and gout. Hence, continuing URICRestore long-term can help maintain optimal uric acid level and reduce the risk of gout recurrence and other complications associated with high uric acid.
Q: Since peanuts contain purines, should I be concerned about taking URICRestore because the luteolin is extracted from peanut shells?
A: You raise a good point! Peanuts do contain a moderate amount of purine. However, the luteolin in URICRestore is extracted from PEANUT SHELLS using a proprietary technology which make it free from purine. However, if this is still a concern, we suggest consulting with a doctor before taking URICRestore.
Q: Is URICRestore suitable for vegetarians?
A: Yes, URICRrestore is 100% vegan-friendly and suitable for vegetarians and vegans alike. Its key components, LuteoPureTM Luteolin 98% extracted from peanut shells and SunActive® IsoQ derived from rutin (a plant pigment found in Japanese Pagoda tree flower buds), are plant-based.
