I am on a gout diet, and a mildly restrictive cholesterol diet.
Overall it is not too restrictive; I limit meat/fowl/fish,, and in a
relative sense limit whole grains and legumes while accenturating dairy
and eggs. It also is a total calorie restrictive diet, because
with fewer total calories you limit the purines you are trying to
avoid for gout.

Overall it is a success so far.
