The prevalence of hyperuricemia and gout have been increasing in the Portuguese population, in recent years, similar to what happens with other developed countries. The purpose of this article is to review the available evidence in relation to nutritional intervention in these pathologies, in order to identify strategies for nutritional intervention in patients with hyperuricemia and gout, with greater potential for effectiveness. Whereas hyperuricemia and gout is often associated with obesity, hypertension, dyslipidemia, atherosclerosis and metabolic syndrome, these patients represent a unique opportunity for an evaluation and a more comprehensive nutritional guidance.
