Gout is the most frequent inflammatory joint disease in the western world and has aproven genetic background. Additionally, lifestyle factors, such as increasing life expectation and standard of living, sufficient or excess nutrition and agrowing prevalence of obesity in the population as well as e.g. alcohol consumption, contribute to the rising incidence of hyperuricemia and gout. Apart from an adequate medication, medical consultation on nutrition and lifestyle is an essential part of the management of gout patients, who have ahigh risk of internal comorbidities. In 2015 the Austrian Society for Rheumatology and Rehabilitation (ÖGR) working group for osteoarthritis and crystal arthropathies published nutrition and lifestyle recommendations for patients with gout and hyperuricemia. Since then, amultitude of studies have been published addressing this topic, which necessitated an update. First, the authors performed ahierarchical literature search to screen for the literature published since 2015. Considering references given in the first publication, the relevant literature was selected and the recommendations from 2015 were either kept as published, reformulated or recreated. Finally, the evidence level and the level of agreement for each recommendation were added by the authors. Based on this process, 10recommendations were generated instead of the initial 9. As in the original publication, agraphical presentation with symbols was constructed to complement the written text. The ÖGR recommendations on nutrition and lifestyle for patients with gout and hyperuricemia were updated in accordance with the most recent relevant literature. These are supposed to serve as information and education material for patients and updated information for physicians.
