OXALATES--A Hidden Cause of Chronic Disease.

OXALATES--A Hidden Cause of Chronic Disease.
Oxalic Acid-A tiny molecule that is naturally occurring and when attached to a mineral it is called Oxalate. Oxalates form crystals like calcium oxalate-Kidney stones. (80%)
Sources:
1. Certain plants make oxalates for mineral management, seed germination and self-defense. High oxalate foods include spinach, rhubarb, beet greens, chard, certain nuts and seeds, cocoa powder, figs, kiwi turmeric and certain teas. (20-40%)
A single green smoothie with 2 cups of spinach contains about 1500 mg of oxalates.
2. Oxalate is a metabolic waste product in mammals with no known function. (60-80%)
Higher amounts of oxalates are made when:
**Deficient in B6
**High doses of vitamin C are taken or injected. Vit C is partially converted to oxalate.
**Some fungi make it, possibly for mineral management, especially in soil.
**Can be made by Aspergillus fungi living in the body.
Oxalates are anti-nutrient by stealing minerals. Soluble oxalates attached to mg, ca, fe, zn, cu etc. which can cause mineral deficiency in growth, reproduction.
Negative impact of Oxalates
· Corrosive to lining of GI, stresses the kidney, deposits into arteries and other tissues.
· Triggers inflammation causing membrane and mitochondria damage, fatigue.
· Nerve damage and brain.
· Depletes antioxidants i.e. glutathione.
· Destroys connective tissue-injury prone and poor recovery.
· Uses vitamin B6 depleting B6 which in turn causes increase bodies production of oxalates. Depletes biotin.
That is why it can create so many symptoms: GI, lung, genitourinary, bone health, brain. Association with mood, fatigue, vulvodynia, autism, gout, joint pain, osteoporosis etc.
IBD, gastric bypass and antibiotic therapy can increase oxalates. Certain bacteria in the GI can break down the oxalates.
Oxalate issues are not sensitivity or allergy, it’s toxicity.
Oxalate dumping
Strategies
**Eat less than 50mg of oxalates per day.
**Increase water consumption.
**Increase calcium citrate, magnesium citrate, potassium citrate intake.
**Boil the high oxalate foods which will decrease it 30-87%.
**Take a B complex with B6(P5P)
**Lactobacillus acidophilus and bifidobacterium lactis have enzymes that degrade oxalates.
**Chondroitin sulfate and biotin
**Lactobacillus Acidophilus
**Bifidobacterium Lactis
**Lemon juice in water
**Epsom salt bath
**genetics
Oxalate are excreted through feces and kidney(40-50mg/day)
No best test for oxalates.
Patients with advanced kidney deposits of oxalates can show very little oxalates in the urine.
Organic acid testing could give us clues to oxalate issues and candida.
Genetic SNP for SULT(Sulfotransferase)-oxalate problems can negatively affect this pathway in the liver.

[@KimChi-iy7jd]

@@jn2400 Did you ever hear, that people have their right to misery? The older I get the more I think this is true. To give advice, unasked, about diet or medical decisions is almost always not appreciated. If someone asks you, then tell them. Even then it is almost never the case, that they will try out your idea. If people do not ask for advice, do not give it. Everyone needs to get insight for themselves, we are different, luckily. Often medication/diet/herbs that help one person is definitively not helpful for another person, so I think it is a just principle, that everybody needs to find out for themselves. If you withhold information when someone is searching and asking you, that is disgusting. Nevertheless to give the precious information to people, who maybe do not have an issue or are totally not open for it, because something else is more important in their lives at the moment is like giving pearls to swine, no sane person would do it. I hope this is helpful. 👋🏼💗

If people want to continue their behavior that causes problems, I really don’t want to keep having conversations about it. One blood test showed elevated oxalates and when I explained that he was at risk for more problems, he obviously couldn’t be bothered to drink fluids.

Exactly - and mostly because not every two "bodies" are made equal. The human body is extremely complex, and genetics play a major factor on how the body responds to the world. It is important to know about oxalates, lectins, etc., but in the end if we don't have issues like kidney stones, we should just live with the awareness of them. If we fine-tune our nutrition based on anything and everything that we find on KZbin we are potentially causing problems somewhere else. Listen to the body. The other consideration is that for every "eat this" video there are many "don't eat this" videos as well.

I do ok with a plant based nutritional regiment I have found to be safe. I have read that blood type can affect being able to eat meat. I'm A. Omega fatty acids seem to help me purge oxalates also. The common denominator between all of my allergies is oxalates. My mom presented as neuro divergent and my grandmother. I get super aggressive when I get oxalate overload. I always thought I was a sociopath because of these issues. Now I know better. Thank you though. I'd just been thinking last night that I needed to figure out how to get them out of my system faster. The mg of the vitamins was something I needed. For anyone who may need help this is my daily nutritional intake. I do about 6-8 servings of Orgain organic protein powder, a couple of cups of the organic morning blend from CostCo with about a cup of the organic 4 berry blend, a liter of their organic coconut water. A can of salmon (usually. I haven't lately) with lemon pepper and some basil. My vitamins are magnesium glycinate 100mg, vitamin D3 2-4k IU, B12 5k mcg, b1 300-500pmg a day, 35mg of zinc, about 150mcg of a potassium iodine/iodide supplement and up to 10mg of boron.

I was already taking multi B. I took just B6 and Biotin after exercise. No muscle pain. I thought, no just coincidence. I took the next day, and the next day. No pain. I don't get pain anymore in my muscles. I don't take on weekends when I don't do exercise. Why no one mentioned this before everyone giving the same info including my GP, take magnesium.

My joints love me for it!! Look it up, it does lots of good things! I just sip it instead of downing it all at once. With the honey it makes it easy to drink. I sip on it like you would a glass of wine.😊

Thanks for the solutions. I healed so many issues by going plant free for a few months. ❤ Ate grassfed meats, fish, eggs and butter... got rid of all auto-immune, I don't think it was from the meat only diet but from taking out my beloved green plants, nightshades, and fruit chemicals etc.

Thanks for the information Dr. Sung!

[@deva190]

Thank you. Last year around this time I was slowly removing oxalates from my diet, or so I thought. I think it was the eventual dumping that resulted in my chronic illness. Prior to that I was a regular consumer of green smoothies, nuts , BIG TIME black tea drinker, loved peanuts and vegetables thinking it was healthy. Meanwhile my friends were eating mostly processed foods. When I was diagnosed they were shocked.

Spinach, rhubarb and black pepper are all very high in oxalates. On a low oxalate diet it seems one has to avoid so much of what is supposed to be good- most green leafy veggies, nuts, legumes etc. it’s very hard to follow but thanks for the reminders

High oxalates are also found in herbs and spices such as Cinnamon, Tumeric, black pepper, fennel seed, cumin seed, all spice. I like all these spices and used them but in limited quantities. Drink lots of lemon water, apple cider vinegar and supplement with magnesium, zinc and a probiotic. That would be my recommendation. It works for me.

[@danielploy9143]

How can you measure/weigh 50 milligrams of oxalates? How can anyone tell a certain vegetable has a given amount of oxalates? These health videos are getting really goofy. People say eat your vegetables don’t eat meat another says completely the opposite. People say never supplement with calcium others say the opposite. What good is any of this information. If you watch a video they will say your misinformed, if you miss a video they will say your uninformed.

[@andonthebrightside8593]

What we really need to do is listen to our bodies. The body tells the truth of our experience and the people making these videos only know the truth of their experience. Not to say that there aren't golden nuggets here and there, but I'm learning to trust and listen to my own body and intuition.

[@davevarga]

There are lists of oxalate content of veggies, nuts, fruit that you can find from reputable sources on the internet. Usually they list the oxalate content per 1/2 cup or 100 grams. Yeah Spinach is CRAZY high in oxalates. Sweet potatoes have some in them but if you boil them, the oxalates reduce somewhat. Right at this very moment my skin itches in back of my knees from oxalates. Best...

[@lilyrosesoul0077]

I think it about customisation. There is no such thing of a diet that will suit everybody. So every person is unique & we need to study what is good for us.

[@johnp7739]

If this was an attempt at sarcasm, chiropractors generally know a lot more about nutrition than MDs, who barely study it in Big Pharma school (I mean med school). Most of them I know are healthier than most MDs and even hospital dieticians that I know. I actually know a dietician who sells homemade pastries and desserts as a side business.

[@bassamal-kaaki3253]

Just add lemon juice to your water and never worry about oxalates :)

[@rcristy]

Have you ever seen one under an electron microscope? The science on using lemon juice to prevent reformation is inconclusive. The fact that you feel the need to do something to combat oxalate content in your food should tell you, you know they're no good for you. Incredibly painful urination from the stones is another sign. Your body uses up calcium to get rid of the oxalate. And, you can't get rid of the deposits of oxalate throughout your body with lemon juice. So many reasons to avoid them.
