Honey and maple syrup count as added sugar, just like white table sugar. Eating too much sweetener increases calcium in your urine and lowers your urine volume. Both of those changes make kidney stones much more likely to form. Up to sixty percent of stone formers have high urine calcium, and extra sugar makes that problem worse.We break down how different sweeteners affect your body, including their glycemic index numbers. Maple syrup scores fifty-four, honey scores fifty-eight to sixty, and table sugar scores sixty-five. You will learn the daily sugar limits to aim for: twenty-five grams for women and thirty-eight grams for men. We also share why you do not have to give up treats forever.You will walk away with simple ways to cut back on sugar without feeling miserable. Changing your diet takes time and patience, but your cravings will fade as you take baby steps. You do not need perfection to protect your kidneys.

You need to make at least two and a half liters of urine every day to stop kidney stones. It is not just about how much water you drink. It is about how much leaves your body. When you pee enough, you flush out tiny mineral crystals. That keeps them from sticking together into painful stones.Two people can drink the exact same amount and pee very different amounts. Salt and added sugar make your body hold onto water. Sweating, bowel issues, and watery fruits also change your numbers. We explain why your body reacts this way. We also share why other fluids like milk, juice, and smoothies count toward your daily goals.We show you simple ways to track your output at home without daily lab tests. A quick look at your urine color tells you a lot. You can also save a collection jug to check your volume every few months. You will leave with clear steps to keep your kidneys clean and healthy.Get Featured!Leave us a voice message at call.show/kidneystonediet to be featured on the show!Chapters(00:00) - Urine Output Versus Daily Water Intake (01:21) - Digestive Issues and Fluid Loss Factors (03:47) - Target Urine Volume and Crystal Supersaturation (05:43) - Tracking Daily Hydration and Urine Volume ——When you're ready, here's how I can helpSince 1998, I've helped thousands of patients prevent kidney stones.

You cut out spinach and almonds completely, but your urine tests still show high oxalate. It is deeply frustrating when you work hard and still make kidney stones. We walk you through why your oxalate stays high even on a healthy diet.We explain how calcium acts like a magnet for oxalate inside your body. When you eat half a sweet potato with cottage cheese, the calcium binds to the oxalate. Your body flushes them both out in your stool. Without enough calcium, that extra oxalate passes straight into your blood. We also look at how stomach issues or fat absorption problems break this process apart.We also cover how taking extra vitamin C supplements can secretly raise your oxalate levels. You will walk away knowing exactly what your urine test numbers mean. You will get clear, actionable steps to balance your meals and protect your health.Get Featured!Leave us a voice message at call.show/kidneystonediet to be featured on the show!Chapters(00:00) - 24 Hour Urine Collection and Sodium Intake (02:40) - Pairing Calcium with High Oxalate Foods (04:50) - How Fat Malabsorption Increases Urine Oxalate (07:04) - Vitamin C Supplements and High Oxalate ——When you're ready, here's how I can helpSince 1998, I've helped thousands of patients prevent kidney stones.

Up to 60 percent of calcium kidney stone formers have too much calcium in their urine. You will never know this is happening without a 24-hour urine test. We walk you through the top five reasons your body leaks extra calcium into your urine. We also share what you can do to stop it.High urine calcium often comes from eating too much salt or too much meat protein. Taking high doses of vitamin D can also cause it. Sometimes, small glands in your neck pull calcium straight out of your bones. That extra calcium dumps into your kidneys, creating stones and leaving your bones weak.We show you how to spot these causes and talk to your doctor. You will learn simple food changes, like eating less sodium, that keep calcium where it belongs.

Matt and Producer Josh reveal dueling lists of the top ten desserts they love.
Kidney stone patients are cutting way too many foods out of their diet, and it's making their world smaller and joyless. In this episode, Jill breaks down why "high oxalate" doesn't mean "forbidden," using real numbers from the Harvard Oxalate Food List to show that foods like sweet potatoes, kale, avocados, peanut butter, and blueberries can absolutely fit into a low-oxalate lifestyle in the right portions. She walks through her own coaching calls, explains how to use the free oxalate calculator and food list tool at kidneystonediet.com, and shares why building a daily oxalate "budget" (rather than banning foods outright) is the key to long-term compliance, real joy, and better stone prevention.Get Featured!Leave us a voice message at call.show/kidneystonediet to be featured on the show!Chapters(00:00) - Understanding Kidney Stone Patients' Struggles (02:23) - The Importance of Food Choices for Kidney Stone Prevention (05:07) - Navigating Oxalate Levels in Your Diet (08:27) - Moderation and Balance in Eating (14:20) - Bringing Joy Back to Eating for Kidney Stone Patients ——When you're ready, here's how I can helpSince 1998, I've helped thousands of patients prevent kidney stones.
