General characteristics of dietary table No. 6
Diet No. 6 satisfies human physiological needs for nutrients and energy, and is enriched with plant fiber. Nitrogenous extractives (purines), oxalic acid, and foods rich in essential oils are sharply limited. Meat, poultry and fish - no more than 3 times a week in small pieces. Food is prepared steamed, boiled and baked. Diet No. 6 provides for fractional meals 4-6 times a day. You must drink permitted drinks on an empty stomach and between meals.
Nutrition for acute gout
Exacerbation of gout is accompanied by a number of unpleasant symptoms:
One of the signs of an exacerbation of gout is attacks of acute arthritis. Such attacks develop suddenly. Two to three days before the attack, chills, low-grade fever, dyspeptic disorders, and general irritability may appear. During an attack, the metatarsophalangeal joint of the first toe is most often affected. Pain appears and quickly increases, the joint swells, the skin over it turns red, and the temperature in the joint area rises. The pain intensifies from any touch, even from touching the sore joint to the blanket. After a few days, the symptoms of arthritis gradually subside, mobility is restored and the patient feels practically healthy until the next attack.
During the period of exacerbation of the disease, you need to switch to an almost vegetarian diet. It is necessary to completely exclude all meat and fish from the diet. You can eat liquid milk porridges, vegetable soups, fruits and berries. Maintain drinking regime. You need to drink about 1.5 liters of water per day. You can drink alkaline mineral water.

Patients with gout are prescribed fasting days, 1-2 times a week. To unload, you can choose one product and eat only it throughout the day. Low-fat or calcined cottage cheese is well suited for such purposes. On a fasting day, you need to consume 150 g of it every time you feel hungry. It is forbidden to completely starve, this leads to even greater accumulation of uric acid in the blood.
So, for uric acid diathesis and gout, table number 6 is used. The diet excludes foods that contain a lot of purines. The therapeutic menu consists of alkaline foods that help remove breakdown products of nitrogenous substances from the body. As a result of such a diet, the patient gradually normalizes the correct process of excretion of uric acid, urine stones are broken down and new ones do not form.
What is possible
The diet should be healthy and balanced: a type of diet similar to vegetarian is perfect. Vegetable or milk soups, fruits, and fermented milk products will be useful. Those with a sweet tooth can afford dried fruits, milk jelly, non-chocolate candies, and jam. Also, a diet for heel spurs can include almost any vegetables. The diet should also consist of the following products:
- Nuts and seeds
- Porridge with milk diluted with water
- Cheese, if it is a low-fat variety
- Herbal drinks
Doctor's opinion
Diet 6 was developed by physician Pevzner to improve the metabolism of uric acid in gout. At the same time, first of all, it was possible to achieve a decrease in the flow of nucleotides into the human body, which accordingly affected the course of gout. Within a few days after starting food intake, the patient’s general condition improved, and the frequency, duration and severity of gout attacks decreased. By reducing the functional load on the digestive organs, their work improves, dyspeptic symptoms, including bloating (flatulence), stool disorders, and discomfort in the stomach, are reduced. In the presence of concomitant obesity, the use of a modified diet 6 made it possible to reduce the patient's body weight. Dietary recommendations can be carried out in a medical hospital or at home. Table 6 is recommended for people with a hereditary predisposition to the development of gout to prevent pathological disorders of nucleotide metabolism.

Features of fasting days
During an exacerbation of the disease, therapeutic fasting is unacceptable. A complete refusal to eat will cause the condition to worsen. Fasting days can significantly improve the patient's condition.
Options for fasting days:
- vegetable on vegetables and fruits;
- kefir-curd;
- rice
During a plant-based diet, it is recommended to eat one type of permitted fruit or vegetable. Salads are acceptable. Most often, apple day is used as a fasting day; you can eat no more than 250 g of apples per day.
During the kefir-curd fasting day, you can eat 0.4 kg of low-fat cottage cheese and 0.5 liters of kefir.
A rice fasting day consists of 75 g of rice and 1 apple. They should be eaten in small portions throughout the day.
It is recommended to drink compote made from apples on such days. No need to add sugar.
Indications
There are several main medical indications, in the presence of which diet 6 is prescribed, these include:
- Gout.
- Uric acid diathesis with an increased likelihood of the formation of insoluble stones in the hollow structures of the urinary tract.
- Uraturia is an increased excretion of insoluble urate salts in the urine.
- Urolithiasis - diet 6 is a prerequisite for successful treatment of the formation of insoluble stones in the hollow structures of the urogenital tract, as well as for the prevention of the pathological condition.
- Oxaluria is an increase in the concentration of insoluble acid salts of oxalates in the urine, which is the initial stage of the development of urolithiasis.
- Cystinuria is an increase in the level of certain insoluble salts in the urine that have an acidic reaction. The pathological process in most cases is of hereditary origin.
Contraindications
There are several contraindications for using diet 6, these include:
- Individual intolerance to most products that form the basis of table 6 or the development of an allergic reaction in response to their entry into the human body.
- Severe cardiovascular pathology.
- Acute inflammatory kidney diseases.
The presence of contraindications is usually the basis for correction of dietary recommendations. At the same time, the list of permitted products is expanded or narrowed, certain dishes are replaced, as well as the diet. After the correction, it is usually possible to achieve the necessary therapeutic effect from the diet without negative effects on the human body.
Mechanism of therapeutic action
Purine bases (nucleotides) represent a class of organic compounds that are the basis of the genetic material of cells (DNA, RNA). In the human body, they are involved in a complex metabolism, which results in the formation of uric acid, which is excreted in the urine. Gout is a metabolic disease in which the number of enzymes directly involved in nucleotide metabolism decreases. The result is an increase in the concentration of uric acid, the excess of which is deposited in the tissues in the form of crystals of uric acid salts. Some of them often accumulate in the tissues of joint structures, leading to the development of a specific inflammatory process and attacks of pain (attacks of “gouty” joint pain). Diet 6 for gout involves reducing the intake of purine bases into the human body, thereby reducing the concentration of uric acid in the blood and its salts in tissues.
Due to the reduced content of oxalic acid in the diet, it is possible to reduce the intensity of the formation of insoluble stones, therefore diet 6 helps prevent the development of urolithiasis. The table mainly includes food products that affect the reaction of urine, causing it to become alkaline. This leads to partial dissolution of already formed acid salts and insoluble stones from them.
Eating at least 4 times a day, reducing the level of refractory fats and extractive compounds have a beneficial effect on the state of the digestive system and the general well-being of a person.
Approximate diet
Diet No. 6 brings noticeable relief both during an exacerbation of gout or urolithiasis, and during the period of recovery from these ailments
