To prevent uric acid stones, cut down on high-purine foods such as red meat, organ meats, and shellfish, and follow a healthy diet that contains mostly vegetables and fruits, whole grains, and low fat dairy products. Limit sugar-sweetened foods and drinks, especially those that contain high fructose corn syrup.
Paramedics provide medical attention to ill or injured individuals on emergency scenes. They are the highest level of emergency medical technicians, and working as a paramedic most often requires the completion of a certificate or associate's degree program.
