Ghee has a moderate purine content of 0mg/100g. It's best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced, gout-conscious diet. Dairy products are naturally low in purines and may actively help lower uric acid levels. The Arthritis Foundation and Cleveland Clinic both recommend low-fat dairy as part of a gout management diet.
Ghee should be eaten in moderation with gout. It contains 0mg of purine per 100g (moderate range: 50–150mg). It can be part of a gout-friendly diet, but keep portions reasonable and not daily.
Choose low-fat or non-fat dairy over full-fat versions. Full-fat dairy has more saturated fat, which may promote inflammation. Skim milk, low-fat yogurt, and cottage cheese are excellent gout-friendly choices. [Source: Arthritis Foundation / Cleveland Clinic]
Low-fat dairy products (skim milk, low-fat yogurt) may help reduce uric acid levels and lower the risk of gout attacks. The proteins in milk promote uric acid excretion in urine. Studies show low-fat dairy can reduce gout attack frequency. [Source: Arthritis Foundation / Mayo Clinic]

Losing excess weight can lower uric acid levels and reduce the frequency of gout attacks. Research shows that calorie reduction helps even without a purine-restricted diet. [Source: Mayo Clinic]
