Although eating actual cucumbers can in fact worsen gout, cucumber juice along with carrot juice and that of beets as well as celery can actually help people with this condition.

Conditions which are closely associated with uric acid accumulation in the body can be treated with the juice of cucumbers, so you will want to keep that in mind if you are suffering from gout or other conditions such as arthritis or rheumatism.

Cucumbers have many vitamins and nutrients that keep the body healthy and functioning correctly, so it is never a bad thing to include more of them in your diet if you have not done so already.
