@vixstermoves that is fine. You probably had conditions that made them say that specifically to you. But for the vast amount of people who prepare their food properly and remove the oxalate from their food and don’t have kidney or cancer, it’s not a problem. By the way, I took nutritional chemistry in college and I know just as good as any doctor (my UCSD doctors are amazed and impressed!) it is true that we are all different but it’s also true that we are mostly the same as evidenced by nutritional chemistry and the way the human body regulates itself. After all that, that’s why we have education to learn about how our bodies work. Doctors wouldn’t be able to do surgeries and expect healing if our bodies were so very different.
There is a lot of junk science out there which have been fads over the years how things like eggs, cause like cholesterol, how legumes cause intestinal holes, and many other things that are extrapolated to become a general concern to everyone, but are indeed only meant for the individual. In this case for people who have other underlying issues like you have.
I also say this because many people come here and are prayed upon by people who take advantage of that popular junk science and grift their money. So my comment isn’t to you to stop what your doctors are recommending because you obviously have the body chemistry that needs to be cautious of high oxalate just like my body needs to eat a low purine diet - just like MANY need to eat low purine diet when they have gout. But for the rest of the human population, they do not. So please don’t be offended. Please don’t take my comment out of context.
