Detailed Summary
This study aims to investigate the efficacy of the lactic acid bacteria "LUA probiotics" in reducing serum uric acid levels. The use of health supplements prior to the onset of gout symptoms is proposed as a preventive strategy to mitigate the development of gout and to reduce the subsequent reliance on long-term pharmacological treatments. Hyperuricemia is the presence of abnormally high levels of uric acid in the blood serum. Long-term hyperuricemia is a major factor in causing gout. In addition, hyperuricemia is associated with many diseases. Therefore, the prevention and treatment of hyperuricemia has gradually attracted attention. In recent years, studies have pointed out that whether from cell experiments or animal experiments, lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have the effect of lowering uric acid. However, there is a lack of rigorous clinical observational studies to further explore whether lactic acid bacteria really have the effect of lowering uric acid. This product "LUA Probiotics" is a probiotic developed and produced by the Longtan Branch of Grape King Biotechnology Co., Ltd. Its main ingredients include Lactobacillus reuteri (Lactobacillus reuteri), β-carotene, silicon dioxide and magnesium stearate. This product is not yet commercially available.
