Dietary Vitamin C and Gout
Association between dietary vitamin C intake and gout among American adults.
Strong study relevance on gout
We investigated the potential relationship between dietary vitamin C intake and gout among American adults using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey conducted between 2013 and 2018. This study included participants over the age of 20 and looked at various factors, including the incidence of gout and levels of vitamin C intake.

Our findings revealed that 5% of the 12,589 participants reported experiencing gout. Interestingly, those consuming higher amounts of dietary vitamin C showed a lower likelihood of developing gout. Specifically, individuals in the highest intake group had an odds ratio of 0.77 for having gout, suggesting an inverse relationship between vitamin C intake and gout occurrence.

We noted that this relationship exhibited an L-shaped pattern, indicating that increased vitamin C consumption may be linked to reduced gout risk, particularly among different sex groups. However, when we examined vitamin C supplements, no significant association with gout was observed. Overall, our research highlights the potential benefits of dietary vitamin C in preventing gout, while underscoring the need for more focused studies in this area.
