General information, not a substitute for advice from your doctor or dietitian.
Value is per 100g of dried bonito (katsuobushi). It is shaved into thin flakes and used in small amounts as a garnish or to make dashi stock — a few grams per dish — so a normal serving delivers far less than this concentrated per-100g figure.
How much can I eat?
A typical serving is about 85 g, which delivers 419 mg of purines, about 105% of a normal day's purine budget.
Why grade E

Per 100 g (for comparison)
Very high for gout (> 300 mg/100g).
