Honey vs sugar for gout
GoutSafe grades honey C and table sugar C. The food itself doesn't separate them. Per 100 g, table sugar has 50 g of fructose and honey 41 g.
Graded 2026-10-06 from GoutSafe's purine and fructose data. A grade rates a food for a gout-friendly diet, not a person's treatment.
| Honey | Table sugar | |
|---|---|---|
| GoutSafe grade | CModerate Why | CModerate Why |
| Serving | 21 g | 8 g |
| Purine per serving | under 1 mg | under 1 mg |
| Fructose per serving | 8.7 g | 4 g |
| Fructose per 100 g | 41.4 g | 49.9 g |
| Products rated Good (A or B) | 0 of 20 | None on this site |
Serving sizes differ: honey is 21 g and table sugar 8 g, so the order per serving can differ from the order per 100 g.
Purine is GoutSafe's weighted figure per serving against a 400 mg daily guide. The grade also reads fructose and added sugar. Brands differ from the plain food, so a label can move a product above or below its food's grade.

How to read this
Both foods are graded the same way: purine per serving, fructose and added sugar go into one score, and GoutSafe's thresholds turn it into A to E. Products are graded from their own labels, so the brand you buy matters as much as the food. How we rate. More comparisons.
