Sup Flex.
I started learning about years ago when I developed a kidney stone. It was a calcium oxalate type. Learned ways to manage these and knock on wood - I haven’t had any return. That was 15 years ago.That said, who the heck why. Could also be from the kidney stone supps I take (chanca piedra).
When I was learning about oxalates, they sounded pretty problematic in other ways too and these were just more reasons to be mindful of and strategize in a way to keep these low - in addition to the painful stones.
From the link below.
“ Soluble oxalates have many bad effects on body tissues: damaging membranes and mitochondria, creating fatigue and energy issues that cause cell death, triggering nerve cell damage that causes functional problems throughout the nervous system, depleting the antioxidant glutathione (that helps the liver detoxify chemicals and that preserves brain health), and creating autoimmune symptoms by stressing and confusing the immune system”
The oxalic acid in the plants we eat can cause generalized health problems such as poor concentration and joint stiffness - even carpel tunnel syndrome.
