- I am considering the possibility of performing an experiment related to gout. Ever since my diagnosis in 2014, I have been taking cherry extract to prevent full blown gout attacks. It seems to be helping since I have not had any gout attacks. But it would be interesting to see if other remedies are as useful for preventing attacks, such as drinking lemon water instead of taking cherry extract. If I get an attack, that would mean hardship momming though.
- Seeing if drinking more than one HFCS soda drink in one sitting induces a gout attack, and if so, how much I have to drink to induce one.
- I'm planning to buy a uric acid monitor to measure my uric acid levels regularly. I'll get a base line measurement before making any major changes to my diet. Every so often after starting my new diet I'll measure my uric acid level. I may spot check my uric acid after taking certain supplements and report on the results.
