Eating Patterns, Uric Acid, ElderlyAbstract
The elderly as a population are at risk of having problems with decreasing body physiology, one of which is uric acid metabolism. One of the factors that influence an increase in uric acid levels is poor diet, namely foods with excessive purine content. The aim of this research is to determine the relationship between diet and uric acid levels in the elderly. The research design used is descriptive analytical research using a cross-sectional research approach. The population in this study were elderly posyandu participants in the working area of the Kedundung Community Health Center, Mojokerto City. Sampling used the "accidental sampling" technique. The results of bivariate correlation analysis using the Spearman's rho test showed that the p value = 0.000. This means that there is a relationship between diet and uric acid levels in the elderly. A bad diet that can cause high uric acid levels is food with a high purine content.
