Uric acid is a waste product created when the body breaks down purines (found in certain foods and naturally in the body). High uric acid can crystallize in joints causing gout, or form kidney stones. It's also associated with increased cardiovascular risk and metabolic syndrome. Elevated levels may be caused by diet, genetics, kidney dysfunction, or certain medications.
