Stop eating meat and other high-purine proteins. Purine is a building block of uric acid. High-purine proteins include organ meats, game meats, pork, beef, lamb, turkey, shellfish, tuna, salmon, carp and mackerel. A good substitute for meat is tofu, which has the ability to clear uric acid from the body.

What causes hyperuricemia?
Causes of high uric acid levels (hyperuricemia) can be primary (increased uric acid levels due to purine), and secondary (high uric acid levels due to another disease or condition). Sometimes, the body produces more uric acid than it is able to excrete.
Causes of high uric acid levels include:
Primary hyperuricemia
Increased production of uric acid from purine
Your kidneys cannot get rid of the uric acid in your blood, resulting in high levels
Secondary hyperuricemia
Certain cancers, or chemotherapy agents may cause an increased turnover rate of cell death. This is usually due to chemotherapy, but high uric acid levels can occur before chemotherapy is administered.
After chemotherapy, there is often a rapid amount of cellular destruction, and tumor lysis syndrome may occur. You may be at risk for tumor lysis syndrome if you receive chemotherapy for certain types of leukemia, lymphoma, or multiple myeloma, if there is a large amount of disease present.
Kidney disease - this may cause you to not be able to clear the uric acid out of your system, thus causing hyperuricemia.
Medications - can cause increased levels of uric acid in the blood
Endocrine or metabolic conditions -certain forms of diabetes, or acidosis can cause hyperuricemia
Elevated uric acid levels may produce kidney problems, or none at all. People may live many years with elevated uric acid levels, and they do not develop gout or gouty arthritis (arthritis means "joint inflammation"). Only about 20% of people with elevated uric acid levels ever develop gout, and some people with gout do not have significantly elevated uric acid levels

Purines are nitrogen-containing compounds, which are made inside the cells of your body (endogenous), or come from outside of your body, from foods containing purine (exogenous). Purine breaks down into uric acid. Increased levels of uric acid from excess purines may accumulate in your tissues, and form crystals. This may cause high uric acid levels in the blood.

Choi's research team followed 47,150 men with no prior history of gout over a 12-year period. During that time, 730 men were diagnosed with gout. Study participants who consumed the highest amount of meat were 40 percent more likely to have gout than those who ate the least amount of meat. Study participants who ate the most seafood were 50 percent more likely to have gout.
In this specific study, though, not all purine-rich foods were associated with an increased risk of gout. There was no increased risk associated with a diet that included:
peas
beans
mushrooms
cauliflower
spinach
These foods are considered high in purines. Choi's team also found that low-fat dairy products decrease the risk of gout, and overall protein intake had no effect. Ultimately, diets shown to be connected to gout are the same kinds of diet linked to cardiovascular disease.
