And we were on the phone and he goes, holy shit.

I go, yeah, man, that's why it tastes good.

But my doctor told me I had oxalates in my diet, in my blood test.

He said, your oxalates are kind of high.

He goes, are you eating almonds?

And I said, yeah, I eat almonds all the time.

He's like, yeah, cut back.

He goes, that's where it's from.

And also, it's a lot of like...

A lot of that gluten-free flour stuff, if you buy a lot of that stuff, it's like almond flour a lot of the times.

Right.

Almonds are a high oxalate food.

Eating them can raise oxalate levels that circulate, get filtered by the kidneys, and appear in urine, which may increase kidney stone risk in susceptible people.

Almonds contain about 296 milligrams of oxalate per 100 grams, roughly 4 milligrams per nut, putting them in the high oxalate category.
