My husband and I both suffer from gout, which is a build up of uric acid in the body from sluggish kidneys. We have found this to be a great product for us, bringing my gout to a total stop, as long as I stay off meat, dairy and high purine foods. My husband takes colchazine daily but sometimes when he overdoes it, he will need to up his med. He was due to work security, being on his feet a lot more than usual, and was preparing himself for another bad bout of gout, getting his RX filled just in case. However, taking the kidney cleanse during the month prior to the job, he had no expected attack (as he had had last year). The only thing done differently was his taking MH's the kidney cleanse product. So I would really urge you to get it. It WORKS!
