  1. NO. Cod is the single worst offender - listed at the top, top, top by every physician. Sweet cherries do wonders to purge the body of uric acid. Allopurinol is now the go-to medicine for gout flares.

  2. Moses suffered gout -- hence the Kosher prohibition against shell fish. Columbus suffered gout -- which caused his crew relations to go hell. The 'Carribian diet' was a side note in the film "Captain Blood." Bismark suffered gout -- which caused the management of the 2nd Reich to change as a consequence. In all three cases, the flow of history was very much changed -- on an epic scale. [ Kosher law; Columbus's fall from grace; WWI ]
