Does Diet Cause Kidney Stones?
I found it sorta funny that my doctor told me to limit eating green leafy vegetables and eat doughnuts instead. But he may have been on to something. Diet can play a prominent role in those who suffer from kidney stones and since my test came back to show that my kidney stone was made of calcium oxalate, was told to avoid the following foods: * rhubarb * spinach * beets * wheat germ * soybean crackers * peanuts * okra * chocolate * sweet potatoes and to limit foods in the list below: * grits * grapes * celery * green pepper * red raspberries * fruit cake * strawberries * marmalade * liver I was also told to cut down or cut back on caffeine and especially black tea and coffee.
