Should you eat chicken noodle soup if have gout?

It depends. Gout is a type of inflammatory arthritis that occurs when uric acid crystals accumulate in the joints, causing pain, inflammation, and swelling. Chicken noodle soup can be a part of a gout diet, as long as it is prepared in a way that does not contribute to high levels of uric acid. It is recommended to choose skinless, boneless chicken and low-sodium broth, and to avoid other ingredients that may be high in purines, such as red meat, beans, and certain vegetables.
