"Is there a high level of purine in spicy pepper stir-fried pork?"

Pepper stir-fried meat is a common dish in daily life. Whether the purine content in pepper stir-fried meat is high depends on the type of meat used. If fish, chicken, lean pork, and other meats are selected, their purine content is relatively low, and stir-frying with peppers usually does not cause an increase in uric acid levels in the human body. If meats such as animal viscera, seafood, and beef are used, their purine content is relatively high. Eating in moderation generally does not affect uric acid levels, but long-term excessive consumption may cause purine to be metabolized into uric acid by the body. Elevated uric acid levels may lead to the formation of uric acid stones, which accumulate in joints or surrounding tissues, causing gout, manifested as joint pain, redness, swelling, fever, and other uncomfortable symptoms. In severe cases, it may also lead to joint restriction and impose a significant burden on the kidneys. People with hyperuricemia, gout, and other conditions may experience worsening of their conditions after eating. Patients with elevated uric acid levels should focus on low-purine foods in their diet and consume more high-vitamin, high-protein foods to nourish the body and reduce uric acid production.
