There's hundreds of papers about oxalate poisoning from plants in humans, but we just forgot about it at some point.

The issue is, you know, just ramp down.

You don't just go cold turkey, because if you go cold turkey,

your body's like, yeah, I can let go of oxalates.

Let's go of them all.

And then you get styes in your eyes.

You get deep pimples and you get joint pain and it's just ugly.

Yeah, if you want more styes, just eat a whole bunch of almond butter and watch what happens.

Yes, unless it's a weird genetic condition.

70% of the time, it's because they were having too much oxalate.

The other 30% of the time, it's from uric acid.

OK, raspberries, whole grains, nuts, peanuts, sweet potatoes, regular potato skin, but not the whites and spinach, kale, pineapples, relatively high almonds.

Almonds are excessively high.

Cashews are excessively high.

Any nuts, legumes, black beans are terribly high in it.

So you can go to any AI and be like, how much oxalates in this?

And it'll just tell you your goal is 200 milligrams a day.
