Chinese Soup Powder & Gout

Avoid

At 185.9mg/100g of purine, Chinese Soup Powder is in the high-risk category. Gout patients should avoid it or consume only tiny portions rarely. While Chinese Soup Powder itself is low in purine, the real gout risk with condiments comes from hidden sugars — especially high-fructose corn syrup — and high sodium content. Always check labels.
