How much can I eat?
A typical serving is about 28 g, which delivers 12 mg of purines, or about 3% of a ~400 mg working daily target.
Even a large serving stays well within a ~400 mg working daily purine target.
These are plant purines, which research links far more weakly to flares: the 12 mg here counts as roughly 4 mg toward your gout risk.
