@mistea - Although my memory isn't the best, I recall my Kaiser dietician recommending taking high calcium foods/supplements along with high oxalate foods to reduce the oxalate effect.
Any further comments about this issue welcome.

I'm now reading the latest Pizzorno book , "Healthy Bones, Health You!" to further confuse myself.

Thank you for your thoughts! It's enough to make your head spin. I feel like we are all a bunch of guinea pigs. I do remember reading about staggering calcium with oxylates, but don't know if I could get my hands on it anymore. Perhaps if you take enough calcium with oxylates, some will not be bound to the oxylates and flushed out of your system so it can be absorbed. Makes you wonder about spinach and other green leafies that have calcium and oxylates.

I know my GI Dr.'s practice has a nutritionist on staff - for GI, not for osteoporosis, but I'm thinking of setting up a consult. I'll let you know if I find out anything more.
