Yes, identifying the most authoritative list can be quite challenging. But I would probably go with what Sally K. Norton, she seems to have done the most research into it.
Squashes like butternut, acorn, delicata, kabocha and spaghetti squash are technically fruits and low in oxalate as well. So are tomatoes and cucumbers. Acorn and Butternut squash are a good alternative to sweet potatoes if you ever crave them but are trying to be low oxalate.
They can be divvied to a high vs low glycemic list, so papaya low vs banana high. I had to do this during pregnancies when at risk of gestational diabetes, before learning of oxylates this week.
The measurements are confusing. Pineapple at 4 mg of oxalate per cup "barely makes the list" while blackberries at 2 mg per half cup (i.e. 4 mg per cup) are a good choice. Consistency would be helpful when giving dietary advice.
it's even worse, because measurements are not only confusing but probably in some parts completely wrong. Blackberries are listed from Sally K. Norton (Toxic Superfood) with 25mg in 85g and this is six times more than blueberries. 🙄 And apricots shoudn't be on this list with 30mg in 82g, which is a lot .. about 10 times more than an apple.
Blueberries blackberries strawberries are low sugar low oxalate a diabetic put all these into his low sugar list.blueberries are slightly highee. Sea buckthorn low sugar but no idea what oxalate they have
Sally k Norton is the best in this field if you really suffer from oxalate food. I would not gambling with my health and eat things not approved to be low in oxalates.
I planted a fruit garden last year with a peach tree , 6 blackberry bushes and 3 fig trees , I was happy to see that the blackberries and peaches made it on the list ! I am curious about he figs though ?
So you replace foods like raspberries low in fructose and high in antioxidants for bananas, pears, apples, pineapples… plenty of high fructose fruits. Sounds pretty bad if you’re dealing with insulin resistance. 😮
I definitely have no plans to consume toxins, especially since the carnivore diet doesn't include plants. Plus, I actually appreciate saturated fats given the numerous benefits and essential functions they provide to the human body.
@@user-nj6pp9gf1d obviously you don't understand how a ketogenic or carnivore diet works, this low fat or no fat dieting is a myth. It just makes people faster and sicker. People have lost 50 to a 100 lbs of body fat on the carnivore diet. Carnivore has also cured autoimmune disorders, do some research. This high carb high processed food diet is killing people not eating red meat and fat.
Grass fed meats, meats with low soy and corn fed, is one of the better routes. So far in my browsing, I've learned that many fillers in the veggie and fruits category, do tend to be high in oxylate, and can increase carb cravings, so we go back and rely on processed carbs. From this list last year I had to look up low glycemic fruits and veggies too.
I've juicing for many many years and never had any issues. The key is to change up your fruits not having the same thing consistently. The exception are lemons, grapefruit and water mellon. I use both juicer and blender. Certain foods like carrot, ginger or beets I use juicer then add them to a cup with the lemon, grapefruit, protein powder, heart miracle liquid cucumber from blender. The heart miracle I've used for 15 years is the dense essential nutrients that feed the heart, brain and cardiovascular system. This has changed my life but of course everyone else's body is different with different issues so I can only speak grom my experience. I take no medications.
A lot of the fruits presented here are high in salicylates. If you have a problem with eczema, you may have a salicylate sensitivity. Best to avoid both oxalates and salicylates.
Thank you very much very interesting informations as i am on low oxalate diet I don't know what to eat anymore..... I have phobia eating fruits and vegetables....
@@FoodHow i was vegan for many years this how am having high oxalate pain in my kidney inflammation gut inflammation eyes pain lots of health issues...now my problem can't eat meat or eggs i don't like them.... just very little
You really need to limit or completely eliminate oxalate foods, but you don't eat any meat, so that leaves you with very minimal options; I would certainly struggle. I do eat meat, but it still seems difficult.
you are misleading people pears are high (20mg per 100g), blackberries (51mg per 100g) are very high, apricots very high 35mg per 100g, nectarine is medium 5.5mg per 100g, and cherries (2.9 per 100g) are twice lower than blueberries (5.3 per 100g), yellow plum 1.4mg per 100g very low
@@Soapgirl64 I guess this is where you go by how your body reacts then? This is how I gauge it. Pineapple and/or melons serving causes me to binge eat on the whole thing which shows me I still react highly to sweets so I do avoid it. Apples give me some joint symptoms so also avoided.
The video was actually about fruits, but you did give me a good idea to make one about vegetables also. Probably not about meat or dairy as they contain no oxalates.
@@FoodHow It's just that I saw the first video about foods high in oxalates and the A.I. selected for me to watch a second video about which I read as foods low in oxalates. Yes your right ✅, it was fruits and not foods.
The difference between 4 mg of oxalate in a cup of pineapple and 2 mg in a half cup of strawberries boils down to concentration and portion size. Here's a breakdown: Pineapple: At 4 mg of oxalate per cup, pineapple has a lower oxalate concentration compared to strawberries when you adjust for the same volume. This means you get more pineapple with a slightly higher total oxalate intake per cup. Strawberries: With 2 mg of oxalate per half cup, strawberries have a higher oxalate concentration. If you were to consume a full cup of strawberries, you'd ingest 4 mg of oxalates, matching the amount in a cup of pineapple but with potentially a perceived denser concentration of oxalates due to the smaller recommended serving size. In essence, strawberries have a higher oxalate concentration per volume compared to pineapple. However, when consumed in equivalent volumes (like a full cup), the total oxalate intake from both fruits becomes comparable. The key difference is how much of each fruit you're consuming to reach a certain amount of oxalates.
People are out desperately seeking knowledge that will help them get better. This video needs to be taken down. Its really missleading. Following 2 major operations removing kidney stones and kidney stents and months out of work you should not be offering medical advice of this nature to vulnrable people. You could be making people more sick! Anyone viewing this please take advice from a nutrition expert! People prone to kidney stones also need to watch their sugar and salt intake.
You're correct, there are indeed some fruits and vegetables that are low in oxalates, but oxalates aren't the only culprits causing problems. Sugars, fiber, pesticides, and many carcinogens can also contribute to many issues. Therefore, I try to reduce or eliminate most of these from my diet to minimize potential risks.
You are right; I actually got a lot of information from her as well. It makes sense to make a video exclusively on her insights because she is the leading authority on oxalates, and her research tends to be more accurate than many other studies, which can sometimes be inconsistent or contradictory.
That is a good idea, I will put it in my video list but I think some of the good options in the list would be beef, lamb, chicken, turkey, fish, eggs. These proteins are all low in oxalates and carbs. For vegetables, you can go with cauliflower, cabbage, cucumbers, mushrooms, bell peppers, and I think, even zucchini. Dairy products like cheese, yogurt and butter and so on.
You confuse by changing measures from "per cup" for 1 & 2 to "half cup" as you go up your list. Would you like to redo your video & use the same measure all the way through to improve accuracy?
So much conflicting information. Most sources I've seen list blueberries as medium ing oxylate, black berries as high as well as pineapple. I've heard strawberriws and banana as low. I don't know who to trust.
5mg or less is considered low oxalate foods. I think you are being nit picky about 4 or 3mg as borderline. This is according to Sally Norton who is the premier expert on Oxalates.
You are in conflict with Sally K Norton's recent Data Companion to her book--blackberries are NOT low in oxalate! 25mg /3 oz. Pears must be chosen carefully--Bartlett is fine but D'Anjou is HIGH. There are other errors here. You have SOME right but many differ a lot from the latest data.
You aren’t using equal measures for each fruit. Pineapple = 4mg per cup. Barely in the list? Banana = 3mg per banana. ??? What size banana? Cherries = 3mg per cup Blackberries = 2mg per 1/2 cup. Doesn’t that equal 4mg per cup? Doesn’t that make it exactly like pineapple? Blueberries have the same oxalate content as blackberries per half cup. Do you see where you are Making this list inconsistent?
This video is kind of stupid. Switching between individual fruit for serving size, to half cup for some fruits to 1 cup for others. Just stick to a consistent serving size (like 1 cup) so you can easily compare the fruits.
You're totally right, and I get where you're coming from. Mixing up serving sizes like that can definitely make it harder to compare apples to apples-or, well, any fruit to any other fruit! Sticking to one standard size, like 1 cup for everything, would make things a lot simpler for everyone. Thanks for calling that out; I'll keep it more straightforward next time. Cheers for the heads-up!
Why is it that blackberries with 2 mg per half cup are better for oxalate than a banana with 3 mg per cup? Playing with idiots minds? That makes blackberries worse because they contain 4 mg per cup.
Which problem do you want to get? Sugar or oxalates. All foods have 95% positive but also 5% negative health effects! So choose the less harmful foods and depends on your specific health
@@FoodHowSome of these fruits have a lot higher oxalate content according to Harvard updated list in 2023: - blueberry = 18.5 mg - banana = 10.5 mg Raspberries are now in the low but it used to be at 48.5 mg. But I'd still be careful with them. You should check their new list. The kidneystonediet site has a pdf of the list instead of the Excel version of the Harvard site.
How about talking also fructose content per « cup » or « half cup » or « ounce » and not only oxalates ! And whilst we are at it how about pulling out of the fifteenths century and start talking « content of oxalates and fructose per 100 grams » ???? In short …. a list of which fruit have a low oxalate AND low fructose content ?
@@FoodHowWell they are both bad. So you should still watch your sugar intake. That can cause you liver problem, diabetes, blood pressure and all sorts of sickness. Eat with moderation and understand which fruits have high GI to not get you in trouble! And avoid fruit juices as they don't have the other nutrients in fruits which kind of somehow couterbalance a bit the sugar in them.
Almost all these fruits are high in sugar and should be avoided except on special occasions. The only exception is berries, which, for some reason, don't have as much sugar as the rest of them.
So pineapple has 4mg per cup and blueberries have 2 mg per half cup which translates to 4mg per cup. Seems like they pack the same punch to me. This is a very misleading video.
Just lost trust in this video… cherries BARELY” made the list with 3 ox per cup, but black berries are “a very good choice” at 2 ox per 1/2 cup which is 4 ox per cup so higher than cherries… 🙄
several of your facts(?) don't agree with other sites - your attempts at poetry or prose would be better off left out - at least your background music is not obnoxious like some other sites
Let me take a look at Cronometer. The tricky thing with oxalates is that information can be quite contradictory, as there isn’t a single, definitive authority on them.
Blackberries are in Sally Norton's Toxic Superfoods "Worst Offenders" table 3.1 too, and well as dried apricots (8.2 mg per wet fruit in Cronometer). Sally says there's a lot of sloppy work in this area.
@@FoodHow I beg to differ: grapes, tropical fruit. The sweeter the fruit, the more fructose. And for a strict keto lifestyle all with very few exceptions fruit have too much sugar. Berries are the least harmful.
There is no reason to avoid oxalates in any food unless you are weird. If you are prone to kidney stones you have other problems that need to be addressed.
If you're dealing with kidney stones, then avoiding oxalates is a good idea. In my experience, cutting out oxalates also helped relieve my joint pain so I continue being weird :)
Bit pointless as this pays zero attention to glycaemic index. Sugar is the biggest issue than oxalates I believe for the majority of people. Low glycaemic low oxalate is what most are looking for.
You are correct; I should create a video featuring foods that are high in protein, low in glycemic index, low in pesticides, low in oxalates, and high in fiber as these are what a lot of people are looking for, Thank you.
