Are oxalates really the villain in your diet that they’re made out to be?

If you’ve dealt with kidney stones or spiraled down a health forum rabbit hole, you’ve probably heard that a high oxalate diet is responsible for joint pain, leaky gut + chronic skin problems. But does cutting out high oxalate foods truly fix the problem—or is it just part of the story?

In this episode, we’re unpacking what oxalates really are, why your levels might be high (spoiler: it’s not always your diet), best tests for oxalates, strategies to lower oxalates (beyond just eating low oxalate foods), and the deeper root causes of high oxalates that most people miss—like candida overgrowth, gut imbalances, and even heavy metals.

Confused by the oxalate fear-mongering? You won’t be after this.
