Fructose-rich beverages such as sugar-sweetened soda and orange juice can increase serum uric acid levels and thus, the risk of gout, but prospective data on the relation is limited. To examine the relation between intake of fructose-rich beverages and fructose and the risk of incident gout among women. Prospective cohort study over 22 years (1984-2006) The Nurses’ Health Study 78,906 women with no history of gout at baseline who provided information on intake of beverages and fructose through validated food-frequency questionnaires. Incident cases of gout that met the American College of Rheumatology survey criteria for gout. During 22 years of follow-up, we documented 778 confirmed incident cases of gout. Increasing intake of sugar-sweetened soda was independently associated with increasing risk of gout. Compared with consumption of <1 serving/month, the multivariate relative risk of gout was 1.74 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.19 to 2.25) for 1 serving/day and 2.39 (1.34 to 4.26) for ≥ 2 serving/day (P for trend<0.001). The corresponding RRs for orange juice were 1.41 (95% CI, 1.03 to 1.93) and 2.42 (95% CI, 1.27 to 4.63) (P for trend=0.02). The absolute risk differences corresponding to these RRs were 36 and 68 cases per 100,000 person-years for sugar-sweetened soda and 14 and 47 per 100,000 cases person-years for orange juice. Diet soft drinks were not associated with the risk of gout (P for trend=0.27). Compared with the lowest quintile of fructose intake, the multivariate relative risk of gout in the top quintile was 1.62 (95% CI, 1.20 to 2.19) (P for trend=0.004) (risk difference of cases 28 per 100,000 person-years). These prospective data suggest that consumption of fructose-rich beverages increases the risk of incident gout among women, although their contribution to the risk of gout in the population is likely modest given the low incidence rate among women.
