Hi
I feel that I am fairly confident in following a low carb, high protein diet but for the last 18 months I have experienced regular hospital visits due to kidney stones and am now on a low oxalate diet. The problem I now have is that many of the substitutions I have made for a low carb diet are now out of bounds as they are high oxalate, e.g. sweet potatoes, spinach, lots of green veg, beans, nuts, lentils, wholewheat flour, to name but a few! Dark chocolate is included but I am not going to give this up!
I tried speaking to dietitians at my local hospital but they gave me no advice.
Is anyone else trying to deal with this? I got quite stressed about it earlier this year but now trying to eat everything in moderation but could do with more info if there is anything out there.
