People at high risk of having calcium-oxalate kidney stones are encouraged to eat a low oxalate diet. After numerous comments about my August 2019 High Oxalate Foods Facts & Myths video having outdated information, I resisted the subject. Not only is the information in the previous video still relevant, there has been no new developments.
Fad low oxalate diets for the masses are designed to increase meat and fat consumption, increase dietary supplement sales, and reduce plant food consumption. Ironically, there is significant data high plant food diets, including high oxalate foods, are linked to long, healthy lives.
