The video is an interview with Sally K. Norton, an expert on oxalates and their impact on health. Norton discusses the basics of oxalates, their sources, and the potential health issues they can cause, including kidney stones, arthritis, and mitochondrial damage. She highlights high-oxalate foods like spinach, nuts, and sweet potatoes, and explains that a low-oxalate diet can help alleviate symptoms. Norton also addresses common misconceptions, such as the belief that certain bacteria can heal the gut and eliminate oxalate issues.

    Then drink, too much salt and calcium but not enough water are nothing new. In the interview she either doesn’t seem to understand, or she enjoys misrepresenting things. The recommended daily dosis aren’t difficult to find. Around 2.1 grams. But this lady is calling 0.073 grams a “massive spike”.

      kidney stones are calcium oxalates (typically). I’m glad you have solved kidney stones! Just drink more water.

        Bruh, this is not news. And with the exception of a rare genetic mutation where your body makes a heck of a lot of the stuff, you won’t be experiencing toxicity either.

        And hey, I’ve also solved obesity! Just eat less!

        Really tho, this woman is misrepresenting the issue
