Foods rich in adenine and hypoxanthine may contribute to the increase of uricemia. Hyperuricemia is associated with other pathological conditions pertaining to metabolic syndrome.
Objective: the assessement of the impact of fiber rich diet on uricemia in patients with metabolic syndrome.
Methods: the study involved 46 male patients with metabolic syndrome who claimed to have reduced mobility in fingers, hypertension, obesity, hyperglycemia and hyperuricemia. A validated questionnaire about dietary habits was applied at the beginning of the study and after 6 weeks of fiber-rich diet by eliminating from patients diet preparations of animal food and increased intake of vegetable foods. Blood presure, body mass index, blood glucose and uric acids were measured at the beginning of the study and after 6 weeks of fiber rich diet by daily consumption of 2 servings of added grains - 60g totally and vegetables 200g, fruits 300g respectively.
Results: The study shows that at baseline all patients had an inadequate dietary intake of dietary fiber, 28.5 ± 2.2 g/day instead of 38 g per day.The increase in fiber intake of 10 ± 5 g/day was associated with a decrease of serum uric acid by 69.87% from 8.3 0.6 mg/dL to 5.8 0.5 mg/dL, p = 0.008, non-significant decrease of BMI (from 26.8 4.5 to 26.4 4.6 kg/m2, p<0.01), significant decrease of glycemia (from 130 0.8 to 105 4.2mg/dL, p <0.001) and significant decrease in blood pressure (from 150 10.6 to 130 8.4 mmHg, p <0.001).
Conclusion: The fiber rich diet decreased blood uric acid, blood glucose levels an arterial pressure in patients with metabolic syndrome.
