Low

Low· under 30 mg27 foods

Generally treated as unrestricted on a low-purine diet — these are the foods most gout diets build around.

Fairly low

Fairly low· 30–75 mg9 foods

Usually eaten in normal portions without much concern, though they add up across a day.

Fairly high

Fairly high· 75–150 mg1 food

Commonly limited rather than avoided — portion size is what makes the difference here. Most English-language charts call this whole range moderate.

Reference information only. Purine values describe foods, not people: they cannot tell you what is safe for you to eat, and nothing here diagnoses or treats gout. Talk to your doctor or dietitian about your own diet and medication.

The Breeze app carries this whole database offline and sorts it high to low by default, so the food you are trying to avoid is the first thing on screen.
