Safe to Eat
📊 Cheese Guide →

Purine levels in Grated Cheese are minimal at 13mg/100g, making it a safe everyday food for people with gout. Cheese is naturally very low in purine and a good protein source for gout patients. Low-fat varieties like cottage cheese and ricotta are the best choices — full-fat cheese has more saturated fat, which may promote inflammation.
