High-oxalate foods

Topic

High-oxalate foods are dietary items that contain elevated levels of oxalate, a naturally occurring organic compound found in many plants. When consumed in large amounts, these foods can bind with calcium in the body to form calcium oxalate, which is the primary component of most kidney stones. Common examples of high-oxalate foods include spinach, rhubarb, beets, nuts, chocolate, and certain grains.
