A high level of the uric acid in the blood is clinically termed as hyperuricemia. Hyperuricemia is 6.8 mg per deciliter concentration of serum urate in the blood. This high level can be very dangerous if not treated on time.
According to you your level of uric acid is 7.2 ands this high level can be responsible for causing symptoms of gouts. It can also lead to severe painful inflammation or arthritis in later stages of the disease. Body system is hardly hampered by the increased level of uric acid but this definitely hampers the function of the kidney. The condition is further associated with increased risk of hypertension, mainly in black people.
If the condition is not treated, the solid crystals or gout get accumulated within the joints to form hard lumpy deposits known as tophi. It can also cause kidney stones or kidney failure. The best thing you can do to treat high levels of uric acid is eat an alkaline diet. Restrict or cut down your intake of red meats as this may worsen the condition. Avoid alcohol and any non-alkaline medium because these products often crystallize in the joints and result in painful inflammation. An ayurvedic tablet called Rasna Ghana is also a beneficial cure for reducing the level of uric acid.
