Steps. 1  1. Smile. Smiling makes people feel good about themselves and makes your workplace, school or home a more positive environment. 2  2. Help in little ways. Like, for example, holding the door open for someone behind you or picking up a dropped pencil. 3  3. Do the right thing even when no one is looking. They may not know, but karma always knows.
Keep eating your usual meat dishes, but replace the meat with beans. For example, if you enjoy a bowl of chili for dinner, remove the meat and add kidney beans. If the chili already has beans, add a second kind instead of the meat. For hamburgers, combine cooked beans, onions, garlic, eggs, bread crumbs and seasonings in a food processor.
Replace meat with mushrooms! Yes mushrooms! Mushrooms are low in calories and help control your appetite. Mushrooms are a great food to help control your weight which is an important benefit to the gout sufferer. To date there is no evidence that fruits, vegetables or mushrooms cause gout or make your gout worse.
