Probiotic supplement for lowering high uric acid
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study tests whether taking a daily probiotic supplement can lower uric acid levels in people who have high uric acid but no gout symptoms. If you qualify, you would take either a probiotic or a placebo (fake) for a period of time, and researchers will see if the probiotic helps your body process uric acid better.
