    What's in the test?

    • Gout risk

      Uric acid

      Uric acid is a waste product produced from the breakdown of chemical compounds called purines. Purine occurs naturally in the body, but it is also found in the food we eat - and in some foods more than others. In healthy individuals, uric acid is excreted by the kidneys in urine, however, if levels are too high to excrete, or if you have a problem metabolising purine, then uric acid can begin to accumulate and can be deposited as crystals in the bodily tissues. When this occurs in joints it causes the painful condition known as gout. High levels of uric acid are also linked to metabolic syndrome, a cluster of health problems that increase the risk of heart disease and diabetes.
