Mushroom (Jew's ear, dried)
Also listed as: Mushroom, Jew's ear, dried
Mushroom (Jew's ear, dried) is low in purines and generally safe for people with gout in normal portions.
General information, not a substitute for advice from your doctor or dietitian.
Value is per 100g of dried Jew's ear mushroom, which is rehydrated before cooking and swells several-fold. A normal serving uses only a few grams dry, so the eaten amount is well below this concentrated per-100g figure.
Fructose here is a category-level estimate, not a direct measurement for this food.
How much can I eat?
A typical serving is about 70 g, which delivers 109 mg of purines, about 27% of a normal day's purine budget.
Why grade B
Safe for most people in normal portions.
Per 100 g (for comparison)
High for gout (150–300 mg/100g).
Low for gout (< 3 g/100g).
These are plant purines. Research links purines from vegetables, legumes, and mushrooms far more weakly to gout flares than purines from meat and seafood, so the per-100g figure overstates the real risk here.
