Prof. Dr. Boryana Delijska on Gout, Uric Acid, and Kidney Health
What Do The Good Soldier Švejk and Gout Have in Common?
At first glance — nothing. Yet this curious reference became the starting point of an engaging radio conversation in which Prof. Dr. Boryana Deliyska drew attention to an often underestimated health issue: elevated uric acid and the risk of developing gout.
During her interview on Darik Radio, Prof. Deliyska discussed the important connection between nutrition, lifestyle habits and kidney health. She emphasized that the kidneys are sensitive to unhealthy dietary patterns and that high uric acid levels should not be ignored.
Elevated Uric Acid Should Not Be Underestimated
One of the key points in the conversation was that around 30% of people with elevated uric acid levels may develop gout. Timely prevention, regular laboratory tests and consultation with a specialist can support early detection and help reduce the risk of complications.
