It's something that's in everyone's blood. Urate (or Uric Acid) is generally produced by the liver and excreted by the kidneys in urine. If this is out of balance, then either there is too much in your body, your kidneys aren;t dealing with it effectively or both.

In pregnancy, increased urates, can be an indicator of pre eclampsia.
