@vixstermoves I did. Its junk science. I have a nutritional chemistry background. IF you have a kidney stone problem than rinse and soak your beans. Blanch the spinach. High oxalate does NOT inhibit bioavailability of calcium.
Yes, high-oxalate foods can inhibit calcium absorption by binding to calcium in the intestines, creating an insoluble compound that the body cannot absorb. This effect is most significant within a single food source (e.g., spinach) rather than across a whole meal. However, consuming calcium with oxalates can actually help protect against kidney stones.
Read the research. Its like 1% https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15153567/
Get rid of the oxalates in the foods which carry them (that's what my family does - and most who SOAK and RINSE their beans. Oxalates don't need to be in the foods. I don't know where you guys got this.

You do you! Everybody’s different, everybody’s body is different. People consume different foods. Some studies can be confusing because food and mineral intake is not clarified.
I’ve had two different doctors- an oncologist/longevity medicine expert (40+yrs of experience ) and endocrinologist say get off of high oxalate foods. I have had amazing results by doing such. They have years and years of experience. These Drs go beyond 2 years of nutritional chemistry background.
That said, everybody should look into their own health, to figure out what’s best for them. Everyone is different. However, in this day and age, everybody has to manage their own health. Doctors don’t have time to do such. They are under pressure to move people in and out of their office.
