”Ūgout is a form of arthropathic disease caused by the excess accumulation of urin-acid in the joint areas and can at times induce acute pain and infections.

”ŪThe basic principles for treating gout are the following.
First of all, the digestive function should be strengthened so that urin-acid is prevented form accumulating within the body and purine proteolysis is enhanced.
Secondly, the deposits of urin-acid within the joints should be eradicated through the appropriate usage of medicine.

”ŪDepending on the age and past medical history of the individual, gout patients can be classified into the following 3 types
The first type is when the patient is under the age of 45, and diagnosis of illness less than 5 years. This is when the disease is in its early stages.
The second type is when the patient is between the ages of 45-55, and the diagnosis of the illness between 5-10 years. This is when the disease is in its middle stages
And finally, the third type is when the age of the patient is greater than 55 years, and the diagnosis of illness over 10 years. This is when the disease is at its most advanced stage.

”ŪThe prognosis for treatment is the following.
For gout patients who are in the early stages of the disease, treatment is conducted without any real pain for a period of 3-4 months.

Gout patients who are in the middle stages of the disease can expect to be completely cured of the disease if treatment is conducted for a period of 6-7 months. However, during the process of undergoing treatment, the patient may experience a great deal of pain. This pain is a natural reaction to the cleansing of excess urin-acid within the joints. However, if the cleansing process takes longer than usual and the pain persists, it may have a negative affect on the psychological, physical, and economic condition of the patient. That is why individuals who undergo treatment must be patience throughout the healing process.

Because treatment is difficult for gout patients in the terminal stages of the disease, it is important that patients have faith in the treatment process and display a strong urge to get well. If the patient adheres to these conditions, there is no reason why complete recovery can't be achieved. The length of the treatment period in this case is at least 1 year.

”ŪDepending on the situation, the treatment for gout can be divided into following 2 methods.

The first method is medicine based treatment
This method focuses on eliminating the deposits of urin-acid within the joints and this is achieved by using medicine that flushes out accumulated waste from various parts of the body.
While the affects of this treatment method appear rapidly, it lacks the ability to revitalize the physical strength of the patient, and this method should only be used on early patients possessing a strong physical stamina and short diagnosis period. This is a method for patients in the early stages of the illness. Patients in the middle and terminal stages of the illness should first take an invigourating tonic to reinforce their physical stamina before undergoing this form of treatment.

The second method is treatment through the use of an invigourating tonic.
This method focuses on using a herbal tonic to improve the blood circulation within the body, overall physical stamina, and the function of the internal organs rather than eliminating accumulated urin-acid. Although the affects of this method are slow to appear, it has the benefit of fully preparing the patient by strengthening the physical stamina of the patient before he/she undergoes further treatment in the future.

Therefore this is a suitable method for middle to terminal stage patients possessing a relatively weak physical stamina and a long history of medical problems.

”ŪIt is estimated that roughly 1% of the entire population suffer from gout with the majority of patients being men.

Although gout is considered to be an incurable disease from the viewpoint of Western medicine, like other forms of arthropathic disease, it can actually be cured quite easily if the timing of treatment is appropriate. The present methods of treating gout in Western medical practices merely succeed in temporarily subduing pain spasms and lowering the level of urin-acid within the body. However, the medicine used in these cases are insufficient in fundamentally curing the ailment and moreover, in the long term, prolonged usage of these medicines can trigger a variety of lethal side effects that might prove to be quite harmful. Therefore, if you have suspicions of having gout or a high level of urin-acid, we recommend that you stop relying on Western medicine and receive the correct and fundamental treatment for the disease as soon as possible.
