It’s my understanding to not take calcium or other bone building supplements at the same time you may eat anything with oxalates. That’s what I’ve been doing as I love nuts, spinach, almond butter. My last dexascan, I didn’t get worse. Test showed no significant changes. I considered that a win and so did my doctor. Hoping next scan will show improvement.

calcium and to a lesser extent magnesium bind with oxalates rendering both impotent. It could be advantageous to take calcium with oxalates to bind the oxalates. Take calcium several hours to ascertain that your body is absorbing enough active calcium. Magnesium needs a 12 hour distance between oxalates. Vitamin D increases the absorption of oxalates. A two hour window before is good for D3.

Congratulations on "no significant changes" on your last dexa. Did you take any pharmaceuticals?
