Why Seafood Purines Vary So Much
Seafood is the most variable food group for purines, so treating it as one category hides the useful detail. Anchovies, sardines, and mackerel sit at the top of the scale, often above 200 mg per 100 g, while white fish like cod and tilapia often fall below 100 mg. Shellfish sits in between. For gout, the actionable difference is between small oily fish and larger white fish, and the safest seafood choices are usually the lean white fish prepared without rich sauces.
