Gout
Gout is a metabolic illness in which uric acid accumulates in increased amounts and can deposit in joints – often with painful inflammations. It is well treatable medically. At the Kyborg Institute we consider the theme additionally on a soul-related level – expressly as a personal, worldview-based view and always only as a supplement to medicine.
Our soul-related reading
In our reading, we connect gout with themes such as recognition, meaning and the handling of annoyance: whoever lastingly feels little valued or carries much pressure around with them does not live in balance. A more attentive handling of one’s own energy, more joy and warmth do good, according to our understanding. That is a worldview-based observation – no claim about causes and no attribution of blame.
Have it medically treated
Gout belongs to be clarified and treated by a doctor. Lifestyle adjustments – such as with alcohol or diet – can support the treatment, but should take place with medical advice. Please no nutrient cures on your own. Do not discontinue prescribed medication on your own initiative.
What does that mean in practice?
- With joint pain / suspicion of gout, have it clarified by a doctor.
- Discuss diet and alcohol with a doctor.
- As a supplement: reduce stress, see to warmth and balance.
