1:35 The most important thing to do for kidney stones 

This video is for people who are prone to kidney stones. The most common type of kidney stone is the calcium oxalate stone. It just so happens that the foods that are high in oxalates are also high in other things that protect you against the accumulation of oxalates and calcium. 

For example, fiber reduces the excretion of calcium and oxalates throughout the kidneys. High fiber foods like spinach, Swiss chard, beet tops, and rhubarb are high in oxalates, but they are also loaded with magnesium, potassium, and phytates. These foods could potentially reduce the risk of kidney stones. I don’t recommend that you consume these specific foods, but other high fiber vegetables.  

The most important thing to do for kidney stones:
• Make sure your fluids are at least 2.5 liters every day
• Consume at least 7 cups of vegetables every day
