Where the purine comes from
| Ingredient | Matched GoutSafe food | Purine in that food, per 100 g | Share of the product | Purine at that share, per serving | Counted in the worst case |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| organic chicken | chicken breast (C) | 175 mg | up to 100% | 149 mg | 149 mg |
| organic red peppers | red and green bell peppers (A) | 1 mg | up to 50% | under 1 mg | under 1 mg |
| organic jalapeno peppers | green pepper (A) | 2 mg | up to 33% | under 1 mg | under 1 mg |
Purine values come from each matched food's page on GoutSafe. Shares come from label order: US labels list ingredients by weight, so the second ingredient is at most half the product, and anything after "2% or less" is at most 2%. The worst case fills the most purine-dense ingredients to their full share first, until the shares reach the whole product, then applies GoutSafe's weighting by source, which counts plant purines at 0.3, dairy at 0 and organ meat at 1.3 because they raise uric acid by different amounts. The grade uses that worst case. How we rate.
Why it's rated C
- Its main ingredient, organic chicken, which GoutSafe rates like chicken breast, is graded C on GoutSafe, and a product never rates safer than its main ingredient. Source on GoutSafe.
- About 76 mg of purine per serving, and at most 149 mg (37% of the 400 mg daily guide), mostly from chicken breast. Source on GoutSafe.
- The panel lists 0 g of total sugars per serving and no added-sugar line.
Estimated from the ingredient label. Labels list ingredients by weight but rarely give amounts, so we grade on the most purine the label allows, which can read stricter than the real recipe and never safer. Sugar comes from the Nutrition Facts panel. How we rate.
