What we found on the label
- No HFCS, fructose, agave or honey on the label — none of the fructose sweeteners that push uric acid up.
- No yeast extract, meat/fish extract, or anchovy — the purine sources that hide in savory packaged foods.
- Fiber — 3.2 g per 100 g, which slows sugar absorption.
- Protein — 9.7 g per 100 g.
Worth knowing
- High total sugar — 41.9 g per 100 g; a heavy sugar load itself adds to uric acid, so keep the portion small.
