The dietitians recommendation, based on a study published in the
Journal of American Nutrition and
Diet, recommends a high calcium and oxalate
diet on the theory that such a diet will have the calcium and oxalate combine in the digestive track before they get to the kidney. An additional concern is that the urologist recommended diet cuts out many food groups that I have come to believe are good for you: whole wheat bread and pasta, beans, leafy green vegetables, nuts, green tea, chocolate.
