Gout is linked to an increased risk of diabetes and heart disease. The traditional medical view holds that high dietary purines, fructose and alcohol are key causal factors. However, this does not explain the entirety of the pathophysiology. In this paper, we review the literature on gout and propose a functional<br>role for the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/inflammatory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>inflammatory</span></a> signaling cascade to restore vascular health. Our findings suggest that the primary factor behind the recent gout epidemic is dietary glyphosate, with <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/iron" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>iron</span></a> overload and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/fungus" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fungus</span></a> overgrowth as secondary contributing factors. The increase in gout<br>prevalence in the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/UnitedKingdom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UnitedKingdom</span></a> correlates well with both diabetes prevalence and the use of glyphosate in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/agriculture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>agriculture</span></a>. The activities that take place in the gouty joint are directed<br>towards renewing sulfate supplies to the immune cells and to the vasculature. Dangerously high serum viscosity impairs vascular sulfate synthesis, promoting crystal formation and immune cell infiltration into the joint, provoking a gout attack. The resulting complex signaling cascade leads to hydrogen sulfide (H2S) synthesis, release of ATP and reactive oxygen, and activation of enzymes that oxidize H2S to sulfate, eventually restoring sulfate supplies to themacrophages invading the synovial fluid.
