Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of blueberries on uric acid in patients with hyperuricemia that are not receiving uric acid pharmacotherapy. The central hypothesis the investigators propose is that daily blueberries added to a pre-existing diet will promote uric acid lowering and improve quality of life without detriment to vital signs.
