[Non-drug therapeutics of idiopathic hyperuricemia]

Non-drug therapeutics of idiopathic hyperuricemia especially on dietetics and kinesitherapy, and character and therapy of syndrome-X-plus are reviewed. Recently, regulation of total calorie intake is emphasized rather than prohibition of highpurinemic food. Kinesitherapy is not always recommended: Exercises beyond anaerobic threshold aggravate hyperuricemia. Syndrome-X-Plus is a newly suggested condition causes myocardial ischemia in which hyperuricemia is found to be a critical factor, and therefore, improvement of hyperuricemia may prevent the disease.
