What disease was historically known as "the disease of kings" or "rich man's disease".

gout
bulimia
anemia
osteoporosis
Gout is a form of inflammatory arthritis characterized by recurrent attacks of a red, tender, hot, and swollen joint. Gout is sometimes referred to as the “disease of kings.” This is because people long have incorrectly linked it to the kind of overindulgence in food and wine only the rich and powerful could afford. In fact, gout can affect anyone, and its risk factors vary.
