digestive and waste system , which in turn breaks down and builds up
body and food tissues through food intake.

Generally the uric acid is dissolved in the blood and also flushed out through the kidneys.

When the Uric acid levels are high, it is known as Hyperuricaemia.

The Uric deposits then move to the extremities of the body causing
an inflammatory reaction in and around the tendon areas.

area also produces heat.

into the synovial sacks and cartilage between joints.
