What is Uric Acid? Best Home Remedies for Uric Acid

What is Uric Acid?

Uric acid is a chemical that is produced when the body breaks down the substances called purines.

Purines are produced normally in the body and are also found in some foods and drinks like liver, anchovies, mackerel, dried beans and peas, and beer.

All these can lead to uric acid problems in the body of a person.

Mostly, uric acid dissolves in blood and travels to the kidneys. From there, it filtered out into the urine or passes through your intestines to regulate “normal” levels of uric acid.

Not only it can cause chronic kidney disease but affects the overall health of the individual.

If the body produces too much uric acid or does not remove enough of it, you can get sick.

Excessive production of uric acid in the blood is known as hyperuricemia.

Normal Uric acid levels in females are 2.4-6.0 mg/dL and 3.4-7.0 mg/dL in males.

The uric acid formation may occur when the blood uric acid level rises above the level of 7 mg/dL.

It causes ailments such as chronic kidney stones, and gout (collection of uric acid crystals in the joints, especially in your toes and fingers), may occur.

What are the causes of high Uric Acid?

Most of the time, a high uric acid level occurs when the kidneys don’t eliminate an efficient level of uric acid.

This remains accumulated in the kidney and can cause severe kidney diseases.

Causes of high uric acid levels (hyperuricemia) can be divided into primary (increased uric acid levels due to purine), and secondary (high levels of uric acid due to another disease). Sometimes, there is a high production of uric acid than it can excrete.

Most of the factors that may cause a high uric acid level in the blood include:

  1. Diuretics (water retention relievers)
  2. Drinking too much alcohol
  3. Genetics (inherited tendencies)
  4. Hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid)
  5. Immune-suppressing drugs
  6. Niacin, or vitamin B-3
  7. Obesity
  8. Psoriasis

High uric acid levels during radiation and chemotherapy kill a lot of cells in the body, which may raise the level of uric acid in the blood. The test is done to check that the level doesn’t get too high.

Primary Hyperuricemia

  • Increased production of uric acid from purine
  • Your kidneys cannot get rid of the uric acid in the blood, results in high levels of uric acid.

Secondary Hyperuricemia

  • Chronic Kidney disease – This may cause not been unable to clear the uric acid out of the system, thus causing hyperuricemia.
  • Medications can cause an increase in the level of uric acid in the blood
  • Endocrine or metabolic conditions -certain forms of diabetes, or acidosis can cause hyperuricemia.

What are the symptoms of Hyperuricemia?

You may not have any symptoms but if there is an elevation of blood uric acid in the blood and a person is undergoing chemotherapy for leukemia or lymphoma, then the symptoms related to severe kidney problems, or gouty arthritis from high uric acid levels in your blood will be there.

  • Other symptoms may be fever, chills, fatigue if the uric acid levels are elevated (caused by tumor lysis syndrome)
  • Intense joint pain which becomes more severe in the first 12 to 24 hours
  • This pain that lasts from a few days to a few weeks and spreads to more joints with time

How to make your immunity strong to fight against covid-19

Our immune system does a remarkable job against disease-causing microorganisms and defends them amazingly. But in certain circumstances, it fails.

A disease-causing germ successfully invades into the body and makes a person sick. So in this situation, the certain question arises i.e.

Is it possible to intervene in this process and boost your immunity?

How can we improve our diet? Are vitamins or herbal preparations to build up immunity?

What lifestyle changes should be taken for building up a perfect immune response?

A person may possess chronic low immunity. From an Ayurveda point of view, the human body is made up of seven tissue layers or dhatus which is responsible for our immunity.

These layers of tissue known as Rasa (lymph), Rakta (blood), Mamsa (muscle), Medha (fat), Asthi (bone), Majja (bone marrow) and Shukra (semen/reproductive tissue. The final essence of these seven tissues is known as ojas.

Ayurveda offers a natural way to maintain a healthy body. The tridoshas vata, pitta, kapha are known as energies of the body.

In Ayurveda, there is a theory of immunity known as beej bhumi theory, which means seed and land.

In this case, the body is related to land while the infections are related to the seed.

If there is an accumulation of ama in the body and the body is lacking the ojas , then the infection will find the fertile ground in the same way as the fertile land will sprout the seeds.

If the digestion is strong and ojas is there, then the seeds of infection will not affect the body just like infertile land will not sprout the seeds.

When the seasons change, the susception of respiratory infection increases.

Body function differently in cold and hot seasons and digestive fire can fluctuate irregularly. One should follow a healthy lifestyle and diet for strong immunity.

Immunity is the quality or state of being immune we can say a condition of being able to resist a particular disease especially through preventing the development of pathogenic microorganisms or by counteracting the effects of its product.

Whole immunity system consists of special cells, protein, tissue, and organs which defends people against germs and micro-organism every day. This type of infectious disease is called immunity.

What are the causes of rheumatoid arthritis?

Nobody knows what is the main cause of the immune system to malfunction. But it involves multiple factors, including both genetic and environmental influences.

Immune cells play a crucial role in the pathogenesis, although the relative contribution of individual components remains uncertain. It occurs when an immune system mistakes the body’s healthy tissues for foreign invaders.

There is a proliferation of cells in the synovial layer of the joints which destroys cartilage, bone, and surrounding soft tissues.

This leads to inflammation in joints and can be treated with Ayurvedic treatment for Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Symptoms usually tend to come and go. During a remission, they can be mild. However, but during a flare, they can become severe.

  • Affected joints become swollen, inflamed, painful, and stiff. Synovial fluid may accumulate which causes an effusion.

  • Prolonged early morning stiffness is also a main diagnostic feature suggestive of inflammatory disease in joints.
  • There is a general feeling of being unwell or fever

  • High-stress levels may increase the risk of psoriasis.

Clinical features are – syavam (blackish brown discoloration of the skin), kinakharsparsa (affected skin will be rough to touch like the scar tissue), and parusa (hard to touch).

Kitibha can also enter into deep tissues which cause damage to tissue including bone, muscles, and joints which causes joint-related pathology.
