    Book Uric Acid Test with Nominal Cost in Kolkata – Accuhealth Diagnostics

    Your body is working constantly 24*7. Even as you sleep, your gut digests your dinner and your blood flows through your body. Whenever you have a meal or a snack, your body pulls out all the good stuff, such as proteins and vitamins, and sends away the waste.

    Typically, uric acid is one of those waste products. When your body breaks down purines, uric acid is formed, which are found in some foods. When you pee, most of the uric acid leaves your body. Some leaves your body when you poop.

    A uric acid test is not usually a part of a routine blood test or routine health check up. But, if you have a health problem that can cause or be caused by high uric acid  levels, it can be useful to measure it. If the levels of uric acid are high in your body, it can cause gout.  If you have symptoms of gout, you need to take a uric acid blood test. This test will measure how much uric acid you have in your blood.
