Your body naturally creates uric acid as a by-product when it breaks down “cellular debris" (a normal part of your body’s internal life cycle), and certain compounds in your food called purines. It does that with an enzyme called xanthine oxidase that converts purines into uric acid. Many common favorites – like burgers, beers, and candy – contain lots of purines. And the more your body works to digest the foods, the more uric acid it produces.

If your body makes too much of it or your kidneys can’t clear it out fast enough, uric acid can build up. When that happens, the excess uric acid can accumulate and form shockingly painful crystals that can settle in your joints – a condition called gout – or build up in your kidneys.

When your uric acid levels are high, you may not realize it… but that doesn’t mean it isn’t causing problems. And when you can feel it, it will really hurt.

Your big toe might throb with unbearable pain, so bad you can barely stand. Your joints may be red, stiff, swollen, and feel like they’re on fire.

And when uric acid reaches even higher levels, it can take a toll on your kidneys, even leading to excruciating kidney stones or chronic kidney problems.

A whopping 21% of people have high uric acid without feeling any symptoms. But even if you’re feeling no pain, those high uric acid levels can still have a significant negative impact on your body.
