Answer

I generally have higherUric acid, but not enough to cause issues like gout.

I effectively give myself gout during extended fasts and have to take colchicine to keep it in check. My doctor said there is a known correlation with fasting/ketosis and elevated Uric acid levels.

Also fairly certain I “passed” a Uric acid stone at the end of my last fast…

Not fun, but worth it for me.
