My mother has been suffering through (gout) hyperuricemia. It has re occurred 2 times in the past 6 months her uric acid level now is 5.3 earlier it was 7.9. Doctors advised her to stay away from foods high in purine like cabbage fish legumes daal etc .but now that it is under control is it okay that she continues her normal diet slowly and gradually adding up some amount of food high in purines.in the same time of past 6 months she was also diagnosed with diabetes and takes insulin shots everyday. So there is a food restriction due to high sugar as well. She can not eat potatoes or anything high in sugar and carbohydrates. So essentially she can not have proteins and purines due to gout and carbohydrates and sugars due to diabetes. Now there is a very small window of exceptional foods that she has been surviving on since the past half year. What should be a good diet for her. Any advice would be helpful.
