Mayonnaise & Gout

Safe to Eat

Mayonnaise contains just 0.6mg/100g of purine — safely within the low-purine range. For gout patients, this makes it a worry-free choice. While Mayonnaise 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.
