Some observational research has associated regular coffee consumption with a lower risk of developing gout.
However, the evidence isn’t completely consistent. Some studies have found associations between coffee and lower uric acid or gout risk, while others have found little or no direct effect on uric acid levels.
That means coffee shouldn’t be considered a gout treatment.
But if you already tolerate coffee well, moderate amounts can fit into an otherwise healthy diet.
The key is what you put in it.
