1. Tart Cherries

Not sweet cherries, like Bing, but tart or sour cherries. If you can’t find them fresh, you can usually find cherry juice. These cherries have two powerful compounds, bioflavonoids and anthocyanins, which slow down the enzymes that help prevent and relive arthritis and gout. In fact, drinking just one 8 ounce glass of tart cherry juice every day can help stop gout attacks from happening. Other berries are also good for preventing gout, such as strawberries and blueberries.
