Kidney Stone Diet

A low oxalate diet alone does not prevent kidney stones. It is important to pay attention to other goals of the kidney stone diet, such as getting enough fluids, calcium, and reducing salt and added sugar intake. The order of importance for these goals is: fluids, sodium, added sugar, calcium, meat, and oxalate. Following these goals can help lower the risk of kidney stones. The Kidney Stone Diet website provides resources and information to help individuals follow the diet.
