There are some great suggestions here on the page, and I hope my comments are read by the original poster.

Please do a google search on "infrared" light and "health" and/or "healing". If I told you all the good its been observed proven to do, you likely would not believe me.

Please do the research for yourself and see.

Consider this: All the OTHER suggestions given here rely on the body sending a small amount of something (cherry juice, alkaline water, whatever) AFTER DIGESTION, to the affected part of the body via the bloodstream. That's great, but it's also quite an 'indirect' approach. For example: cherry juice, applied ON the affected limb does nothing, you have to drink it, you body digests it, and a small residue hopefully makes it through your bloodstream to the gout-affected area.

I'm not knocking cherry juice or fresh cherries. Its one of the most potent and nutrient-rich things you can ingest. And some of the other suggestions here are great. By all means, try everything till something works.

But concentrated infrared light, that's another story entirely. It's one of the only things an ordinary consumer can buy today that actually penetrates down into body tissues and limbs to do its healing work in real-time.

The military is all over infrared for burn, wound, and broken bone healing - ever since the Iraq invasion. Western medicine is WAY behind on infrared generally.

A handheld infrared unit on Amazon will cost you between $100 and $250. Best investment ever!

Please, for your own health sake, do the research.
Be well.
