Brief Summary

Hyperuricemia is a major risk factor for many chronic diseases. Recently, dysbiosis of gut microbiota has been reported to play an important role in the pathogenesis of Hyperuricemia. Animal studies have demonstrated that administration of prebiotics help delay the progression of Hyperuricemia through several mechanisms. This trial aims to examine its protective effect in humans.
