What diet to follow for high cholesterol and gout?

What diet to follow for high cholesterol and gout?We try to emphasize the low fat, low protein foods in our menus but low caloric intake seems to trigger gout, along with quite a few dark green vegetables.
One contributing factor to gout is obesity and it is recommended to lose weight.
One recommendation for gout sufferers is not to eliminate fatty foods from your diet because they help metabolize uric acid.
How are you supposed to lose weight?
There is so much information out there, everything I read about the two problems seems to be contradictory.

Not sure about the gout part of it But I keep my cholesterol down by having oats, grapefruits, vegetables and by walking I guess any form of exercise would help

First of all let me point out a thing or two. The health ramifications of obesity are much more serious in the long run. Secondly, the evidence for protective( from gout) effects of fatty diet is very thin. It is also important that dietary modifications in general do rarely lower the level of uric acid sufficiently to prevent future attacks in a person with gout. In short the importance of diet should not be over emphasized as regards gouty arthritis. Importantly, however, alcohol intake should be reduced to prevent future attacks. The bottome line: advice people to lost weight because this is helpful to reduce the risks of developing the many metabolic complications of obesity and heart disease- which are much more serious than gout.
Less meat, less fat and a lot of moderate exercise!!!!

If you are suffering from gout take 5 cherries 2 times
a day. Dark cherries work best. After about 5 days it
should go away, No need for medications. then eat some
cherries in your dayle diet stay lite on starchie foods
try coconut oil also. I promise if you follow this you
will have great results. also limt organ meat. Remember
cherries are the key. BEST OF LUCK!
