I tried the file below and got a message that " The requested file or

got the same response. Can anyone help? I'd really like to read it.

*** Do you have Powerpoint? If you don't, you won't be able to open it.

Give me a while, and I'll turn it into a Word document, probably with less

header/footer graphics to save space. It's a pretty big file, and the

graphics that are necessary take up enough room all alone.

Maybe you had truncated or split the entire URL. Anyway, I think

that I may have posted that one way back when, and I had already

abstracted from it to help another person. So, here's some of the

text that Ihad pulled from it:

=============================================

After the DS, increase bile and fat in stool, increases calcium

binding to fat=> less calcium to bind with oxalate in diet=> oxalate

gets absorbed from lumen of the gut in to blood circulation.

It then binds to the calcium present in the blood and form Calcium

Oxalate crystals.

Calcium Oxalate Stone

Specific medical condition which is causing the problem (treatable

metabolic condition.)

These stones are made of calcium and oxalate, so it would seem

sensible to exclude these from the diet to fix the problem.

Calcium restriction - NOT recommended because;

1) Cutting down on calcium increases the risk of stone formation.

Most calcium in the diet remains in the gut where it binds to oxalate

from food and the liver. The bound oxalate cannot be absorbed and is

excreted. This means it never enters the bloodstream or the kidneys

and never causes stones.

2) Calcium is an essential nutrient

A low calcium diet can lead to osteoporosis, a crippling bone disease

Also, you should cut down oxalate intake as much as possible.

Foods High in Oxalate

Chocolate, Tea - including herbal teas,

Raspberries, Strawberries, Soy sauce, Baked beans, Peanuts and

Pecans, Beer, Juices made from berries

Urinary oxalate may play an even more important role than urinary

calcium in the process of stone formation because saturation of urine

with calcium oxalate increases more rapidly with increases in oxalate

concentration than increases in calcium concentration.

Low Calcium Oxalate (Kidney Stone) Diet

Persons prone to forming calcium oxalate stones should cut back on:

Apples, asparagus, beer, beets berries, (e.g., cranberries,

strawberries), black pepper, broccoli, cheese, chocolate, cocoa,

coffee, cola drinks, collards, figs, grapes, ice cream, milk,

oranges, parsley, peanut butter, pineapples, spinach, Swiss chard,

rhubarb, tea, turnips, vitamin C, yogurt.

More importantly should increase Liquid intake (not beer!)

Note the last point: DRINK, drink, drink (water)!!! At least 2

quarts/day. (easier said than done)
