Oxalate Toxicity: A Comprehensive Discussion 

I've already listened to a few of Elliots interviews on oxalates and still found all 3.5hrs of this discussion extremely interesting. The best is when he gives an encyclopaedic in depth answer simplifying something as complex as nutrition and human physiology in a way that accelerates everyone's knowledge on a topic and finishes with 'did that answer the question?' Yes Elliot, you just made anyone who can listen an expert in the field 😁 Elliot is going places, we're going to be seeing a lot more of him. Won't be long before Unkas will be telling everyone about the chat he once had with Overton before mentioning Saladino. Elliot is much more balanced with no bias or agenda.

The debate is over for me. Now age 60, low carb for two years, meat based for a year and half. Fixed everything. See no reaason to eat plants at all. A cup of coffee/day is the only plant matter I consume.

Two time calcium oxylate kidney stone sufferer. Used to drink large amounts of iced tea, ate large spinach salads, kale, almonds. Went LCHF 14 months ago with the last 6 months primarily carnivore - aside from ALL of the other health benefits and weight loss; I now have minimal chance of developing stones again! Win-Win!

Oxalates have wrecked my body. I thought I was being healthy by eating lots of plants, wholegrains, beans, nuts, dark chocolate, cocoa powder and turmeric and black pepper in extreme quantities etc. Over the years, it built up and because I was young doctors couldn't explain why I had joint pain, nerve pain and tingling, fatigue and weakness, peeling skin, ulcers in my mouth, heart palpitations, blocked sweat glands and blocked eyelash pores, and numerous other problems. I put it down to "ageing" despite being in my late 20s. I suffered from so many inexplicable health problems for years. I then suffered from diarrhoea every day for nearly two years, and doctors also couldn't explain that. Since cutting out most plant foods and high oxalate foods, my leaky gut has healed, I don't have diarrhoea, and all of my pain and other symptoms have disappeared. If I eat a lot of dark chocolate, the symptoms come back with a 2-3 day delay, because I'm still in the process of getting rid of the oxalates. I can't believe how all the advice of governments and doctors led to me harming myself, and they are even pushing plant foods harder and discouraging meat! The opposite of what we should be doing! Ironically, if I had never cared about my health, I probably would have been better off. It was eating too much of so-called healthy plant foods that damaged my body.

This is great. Carnivore 20 months. I am definitely oxalate sensitive. Most helpful line, "We need to stop thinking of food as entertainment." Yes!!

My grandpa was right all along: ate lots of meaty meals, eggs, bacon and some coffee in the morning, cooked with bacon fat and lard...lived to 97 and died peacefully in his sleep. That is how I want to leave this world, not stuffed full of tubes and butchers (aka doctors) with clipboards standing next to my gurney. I have found that going raw carnivore has been very beneficial, but I do include cooked meats.

Remember, the weaker, sicker and more confused we are, the easier we can be controlled.

Oh my. I am so thankful for you and your videos. I believe that you are doing God's work. I went on Carnivore and had Oxalate dump after 6 months. It was extreme. I have had chronic hives and a floater broke loose in my left eye on Easter. Let me tell you SIR. After watching your videos....adding B!, Calcium, C, Mg, K, P, and MSM I have discovered that I can get back on track, I was B1 depleted from the Oxalate dump, Very traumatic and you are correct that Oxalate dump without calcium can leak into the gut and out through eyes or other places. Thanks for your videos.

I have been on the lox oxalate diet for about 8 months. My joint pain and weakness has improved tremendously, unmistakely. I am motivated to stay on this diet for the rest of my life. It is a life-style change, but worthwhile. So glad for this video. The word needs to get out!

This is so fascinating. I don't mind the length at all and appreciate how comprehensive it is. I'm 63 and have been both vegetarian and carnivore, and I know that eating meat agrees with me. I do love salads, however, and wonder why they remain so appealing. Thank you for the talk.

Really indepth interview. Elliot has such a huge amount of knowledge but always remains open (and considers individual biochemistry) and not dogmatic which is crucial in a healer I think.

My neighborhood rabbits are going to have an expensive feast tomorrow.

Thanks for this information. I really appreciate how in-depth you went on oxalates. I went on a deep dive for a week on MM + Celery Juice and it went badly. Joint pain, inflammation-even affected eyesight and muscle pains (including cramps). Was up to 16 oz at the end (again, I only did one week), but realized that crap isn’t for me. I am slowly bringing down oxalates level and using a food-tracking app to monitor oxalates intake. Thank you for the great work you are doing to help improve our health.

Watching to the very end and having listened to your incredible knowledge and how well you explain very complex processes I would definitely say that you are FAR more than a health coach!!!

OMG! The pain in foot on the side of foot. 🤷‍♂️I take cacao with almond milk in my coffee every morning and I consume a lot of spinach etc. Bless you!!🙏🏼💕

Outstanding. I think you missed a chance pinpoint the cause of hair loss. (A long standing mystery!) 50:00 Biotin deficiency caused by oxalates. Biotin is long know to be critical for hiar growth. And supplements of biotin seem to help. And this could explain why hair loss is reported by people on ketogenic diets. Why? They increase fat, lower carbs but KEEP eating oxalate plant foods!! Happened to me.

I am glad you guys mentioned Anthony Williams. His advice actually is harming some people for precisely the reason of oxalates. I was one of those. Not just celery juice, he was recommending a lot of blueberry smoothies, which is even worse.

Went Carnivore because of weird symptoms (Intermittent postural hypotension, nerve pain in feet mainly, headache, sleep issues, intermittent brain fog, fatigue, etc). Some good days some bad days on carnivore, likely due to histamine as fermented foods and Avocado totally wipe me out. Now trying carnivore again, making sure my meat is as fresh and frozen ( bough deep freezer and temp is set at -10F, cook meat in Air fryer straight out of freezer) . It is expensive but tired of feeling this way most of the time. Hope it works as this is my last hope. Looking back Oxalate and Histamine may have been the reason why keto didn't work for me. Vegetarian/Vegan was a terrible idea, lol ( Now i know why i reacted so badly to spinach, avoided it since 2018 but didn't know why ) Sweet potato (japanese and Okinawa) and plantain work for me in small quantities. Background : I am an MD. so i had extensive GI investigation done in 2018 with no abnormal result. Sharing this in case some one is out there suffering with no medical reason to explain.

Elliot is fantastic, just a wealth of information presented in a non-dogmatic and unbiased manner. A real pleasure to listen to and learn from.

Very interesting! Elliot is a lovelly guy, very knowledgeable and has a straight forward way of giving the info. Thank you very much.

Great interview! I’ll probably listen to it at least a couple more times. Chock FULL of valuable information! Thanks 🙏 to BOTH of you!

I came here just to learn and I am. I view this subject like a forensic linguist, one was asked once" what system do you use?" And he said "what ever works". So thanks for the info. I'm glad I heard this. I have cured myself of many things because I listen - that's how I learn.

For me no more join pains even after intense gymnastics training ever since i went carnivore. Thanks Elloit a million times. I never really liked leafy greens and most veggies as a kid, I never knew why but now it makes a perfect sense.

My goodness what a knowledgeable man!! I got so ill last year 😩 then took antibiotics and well the poo hit the fan.. im seeing a functional nutrition doctor in London and he's just like elliot. So clever. Im just starting my journey thanks for the info im just learning as much as I can. 3 hours went so fast I so enjoyed it!! Thanks guys!!

Awesome. Thank you. The light bulbs went on with this information. I wish I knew about this before I lost my thyroid.

Let's also please look into Sally Norton's research.

Thank you Elliott, you are so informative and interesting. Very easy to listen to. So much knowledge.

I quit straight away... went full carnivore from high oxalate keto. Im 8 months in now. I didn't know we should go slow. 😬I don't know if I've had dumping but I've had 3 cycles of bad headache/ toothache pain. But haven't noticed any crystals. 🤷‍♀️ very very interesting!

This was a great interview. It's long, but worth every minute.

There's me thinking green smoothies were amazing and would keep me healthy in a time of stress and unable to face food..then BAM!....along comes painful gout like symptoms in one foot. The green smoothie kick has left me sensitive to all packages now

Been down the road with oxalates and not a lot of fun had dumping when I cut it out and went carnivore they were coming out of my eyes ears every joint so I say goodbye to all the veggies thank you.

Another more than excellent discussion. 3 hrs. long and still most interesting. Thanks much.

Eliot, thank you very much for pointed me in the right direction! This valuable information is changing my life already! I will contact you to share my experience and I have one autoimune problem that I think this can solve it! God bless!

God bless you two and this amazing discussion. It seems you left nothing out! Is there a chance that you have a transcript of this? Three minutes into the video, I had already been stopping, starting, rewinding, and taking notes for 20 minutes!

I'm so glad for this....kidney pain...stones are horrible....I'm going to drop my oxalate level...since I eat high and I'm low in calcium...lower oxalates will help me get out of misery . Oxalate binds my calcium runs it into kidney....I' I'm changing..to low oxalate...

Wow thank you for a very good lecture about oxalates. I have slowly start to reduce oxalates from my diet and even that I have noticed some dumping. Rashes on my throath, armpits, between my breast and joint pain. I ate before a lot of chocolate, almonds and other nuts . Spinache was also a Common food for me especially baby spinache . Turmeric , Cinnamon on a daily basis. I have had a kidney Stone for about 10 years Ago but the doctor didnt advice me what to do to prevent it . Luckily I didnt got more but I have other illness like gut problems, bloating, Hard Stool, celiac disease, joint pain, dry and itchy skin, hand ecsema. So I really want to get rid of oxalates and other poison from My body.

The ultimate resource..."achieved for sure". Good work blokes!

Thanks Gentlemen! amazing how hidden oxalates are for most. I learned so much from the comprehensive (perfect word) video. Keep up the good work. It helps me so much to listen to interviews like this! Sarah

I have a Medical Medium experience id like to share! But first these talks are an information trove thank you both! So it’s 2/2021 & my body tanks. I have no energy & I can do nothing. I have been VERY discouraged with ALL types of Drs & I have given up & that’s why I tried MM. I have had fibromyalgia for 35 years. I did very well the first month doing his liver rescue cleanses. He says we can continue on with the veggie fruit diet. I did that along with a low fat meat diet bc I had NAFLD fatty liver. Within 8 months I’m back to being sicker than ever. And here I am doing carnivore & trying not to dump oxalates too fast!

This is such a great talk, learned tons of it!!! Actually carnivore is really the safest way to go. And you mention the fructose-oxalate connection. I used to be a fruitarian and I am sure this has cause many of the issues I am now still trying to resolve - although carnivory has really reversed most issues already, in particular the chronic pain in hip, lower back, joints and muscles - I am still not exactly sure if it was Vit D deficiency of 4 years veganism or oxalate deposits or both??

Thank you Doctor for this extremely important information!! Thank you for all your help!

Show notes with time stamps of subtopics would've been really nice for an interview this long, but the interview is appreciated nonetheless. Thank you.

It's one thing to get rid of a poor diet & feel better on a stricter diet but what happens when you get old enough for those age degenerative issues like macular degeneration, arthritis, Parkinson's, alzheimers, etc...just don't want to put plants into my body

What an amazing interview. This is actually my first time checking out your channel and the guest. Very impressed with the length and granularity delved into in this discussion. These podcasts are so valuable, I just subbed to your channel and look forward to seeing more of your content. Cheers from Canada!

I'm from Germany... And Keto information starts to get more available here. I want to start with Carnivore! But I'm doing it smoothly... Not to hard yesterday low carb and today Carnivore... For me it's better step after step.

Thank you for the lesson, you're a fantastic teacher! This should be mandatory listening to all practicing doctors

I have to give up coffee and dark chocolate??? Ahhhhhhh!!!! Ha! You just said coffee is not that high. Yay!

lectins can go into your nerves and lodge in your brain, they dont simply all get removed. They can cause Parkinson's.I developed some tinnitus years ago and I freaked out and learned about the ear kidney connection, I read green juicing was a good cleanse, I was going HEAVY on juicing tons of greens, my palms instantly peeled , this has happened through the years, iv never been big on plants, always loved steak but heard steak was bad, so I ate chicken and veggies for months, got ripped, but developed health issues, then started the juicing after the tinnitus, which was partly due to being exposed to loud sounds in the schools I worked in because special needs students were always screaming, but the low fat (basically no fat) diet I had I think compromised my myelin sheath and nerves and also the juicing was bad after. I recently have had to use alot of antibiotics and noticed food reactions and peeling the skin on the palms again, I even had sauerkraut thinking it was safe to rebuild my gut and had my hands peel simply on that, I know it was that because I had nothing else but that late at night. I always related it to my kidneys, yet every doctor claims there is no issue with them, thank God it may be true that I have no kidney issues, however, I think its obvious when I react that way, my kidneys are being taxed at times. At that time I was eating chicken and lots of veggies and oatmeal, I also stopped drinking milk. I did carnivore a few months ago, took a break, im doing it again, and getting raw colostrum and grass fed food from now on. This is insane , iv learned alot over the past few months about many of these toxins, its everywhere, its ridiculous, everyone is being poisoned. I was juicing tons of celery, kale, beets, tons of plants all at once.--- Do lemons have lectins and oxylates? I have a bag but havent touched them lol

Very good interview with loads of good points. The only thing to contemplate is that the sugary or white chocolate replacement for dark chocolate is filled with soya, reportedly 95% of the world's supply is GMO, and even if wasn't normal soya creates estrogen and even without that, those confectionery bars are full of oxidizing inflammatory seed oils. As for eating clay, that's usually to remove the heavy metals, not to make up for a deficient diet.

Damn !!!! WHo to trust ? Who is right ? This guy is incredibly intelligent and what heis saying might be right. Then we have people like Dr. Michael Grager and Dr. Rhonda Patrick basically going the opposite way. I have friends that are vegetarians and are way more healthy than meat eaters. The deeper and the more I read the more confused I am

The reversal of cancer and the healthier feeling people report when switching to a vegan diet is wholly due to limitation of linoleic acid, not the consumption of vegetables. If there is no intake of linoleic acid, inflammation dies down and autophagy can begin it's process faster. The only reason cancer is so prevalent is because autophagy is severely limited when linoleic acid is found in excess.

carnivore for 1 month DAMN i have finally found what works for me,so many problems fixed.try it i tried it 9 years ago, i had trouble with red meat and thought i was the wrong blood type (type A ) i mistakenly thought type "O" was the only type good for the carnivore diet, big mistake, i was so messed up that i did have trouble with red meat, the truth is red meat is the very best, especially the highest quality, i raised my own beef, i raised a holstein for meat(usually they are for milk) but they have excellent meat. and great bones for broth. i finally went back to carnivore after 2 years of clean water. that is really a big thing. most people have no idea what is going on with water, they may have heard of flint michigan but they don't put the pieces together. first lesson, YOU CANT TRUST THE GOVERNMENT buy 6 dollar TDS testor and see the crap you are drinking. bottom line, we need quality meat, salt and animal fat. animal based food .with some fasting on occasion,that is humans diet for eons, and no more poison. we can eat crap but it will hurt us in the long run. we have been lied to by the sources we thought we could trust.

Spinach, beets, nuts (most), chocolate, certain things that could be healthy but shouldn't be consumed every day!!!

This was one big knowledge drop! I would like a copy of the updated and most accurate oxalate foods list, please.

Three years on a carnivore diet and still i’m very tired en have sinds a couple of months arthritis in my hands and knees. I really have my doubts about this theorie!

49 mins in discussing mitochondrial function, very interesting after having me/cfs 6 years!

I surely poisoned myself with oxalates, so many green smoothies and juices, trying to be healthy esp after getting wrecked first from mold then multiple tick diseases. Ugh. Makes me sick just thinking about it. And how these foods are touted as so healthy (spinach, sweet potato, almonds, beet greens, berries, dark chocolate, turmeric, etc.)

Thank you so much for such an explanatory talk, I really appreciate it!!!

From my research people have eaten these foods for decades, the body can cope as long as there is mineral balance, calcium will only bind to oxalates if it's not kept in solution, it needs adequate magnesium for utilisation. Potassium is critical also for calcium metabolism in many enzymes, for eg magnesium phosphate prevents calcification and plaque build up. Also fluoridated water adds to the problem. I'm a celloid therapist also biochemic practitioner too, take note of the following " Magnesium Phosphate balances calcium preventing it precipitating out of solution which can lead to the formation of gall stones, kidney stones, bladder stones, osteoporosis along with Plaque and calcification in the circulatory system" So you can eat oxalate foods as long as your taking in enough of the required minerals. The Bible says all seed bearing foods are edible, it mentions a land flowing with milk and Honey, Jesus gave fish and loaves of bread, it's deficiencies and how food is produced these days which is the problem.

Thank you Elliot, I’ll be in touch soon!

I went through a phase of eating a kiwi or 2 every day and my body became inflamed, the same happened with lemons.

Wow, this is definitely a lot, but so fascinating. Thank you both for sharing your insights! Unkas, I am so with you on the dark chocolate, and I love your daughter’s logic. 😂 I’ve recently switched over to carob powder to help reduce my cocoa intake, but it’s tough because cocoa is also an energy source for me and my treat to myself. I’m starting supplementation with nutrients I don’t get enough of to help my energy levels, so maybe that will help me. I have enjoyed switching it up with white and milk chocolate recently; it’s just tricky to find low-sugar options. Hence my recent experimentation with carob dessert recipes.😊 A couple of questions that came up for me: 1. What’s the difference between oxalate binding with minerals and conjugation? 2. Does the calcium in some almondmilk an and tofu help mitigate the level of oxalate absorbed in the body? I came across this video after viewing videos related to B1 on Elliot’s channel. I had read about oxalate toxicity on a very surface level prior, but what really caught my attention was mention of hypokalemia in connection with oxalate dumping and the level of amount of high oxalate foods in the vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free diets. I was recently diagnosed with Periodic Paralysis (Andersen-Tawil Syndrome is suspect as I have a KCNJ2 mutation) and hEDS which runs in our family. Periodic Paralysis is a group of genetic mutations cause ion channelopathies that can cause hypokalemia. I was also vegetarian for about 5 years, vegan for 3.5 of those years, and gluten free for about 10 years which overlapped with my vegetarian/vegan years. I wonder if the combination of high-oxalate foods were particularly troublesome for me due to the periodic paralysis. I used to eat SO many potatoes, cinnamon to help regulate blood sugar, occasional spinach, focused on nearly all of my grains being whole grains, tofu, almondmilk, cocoa (dark chocolate especially), SO many beans, nuts, etc., exactly for the reasons you describe. I wanted to not only be healthy, but I was also having long-standing health issues and no health insurance, so I figured I could adjust my diet to see if it helped. And it did seem to help initially. I had more energy, clearer skin. But then I started to feel worse and my health took a nose dive. I had panic-attack like episodes, felt on-edge all the time, heart palpitations. I took nutritional yeast to make sure I was getting enough B vitamins and apple cider vinegar to help with my digestion. I started having really severe episodes of muscle weakness, arrhythmias, tachycardia, developed POTS, intense migraines. I know now that B12 and apple cider vinegar likely caused drastic shift in my potassium levels leading to the drastic increase in muscle weakness, on top of the stress I was dealing with in not knowing what was going on with my health. I gradually came out of being vegetarian and gluten free. I had eaten dairy all the time when I was young, but it seemed I could really digest dairy or red meat after being vegan. Nonfat Greek yogurt I could tolerate, so that was my starting point. Non-gluten free oatmeal also became a go-to. Then it was baby steps from there. Under physician guidance, I added magnesium, Vitamin D, and later potassium chloride to my regimen. The potassium chloride helps significantly. I suspect the magnesium and Vitamin D too, but that it’s in a more subtle way. It’s been about 7 years since I started reincorporating dairy and meat back into my diet, and I’m in a MUCH better place than I was though I still have digestive (GI wants to test for SIBO and do an endoscopy and has suggested low FODMAP) and neurological issues I’m hoping I can address. I switched nutrition apps recently and the new one allows me to see where I’m not meeting the RDA for specific vitamins and minerals including B1, B5, folate, copper, zinc, etc.. My current approach is to start supplementing to see if it improves my symptoms. I have noticed that certain high oxalate foods like spinach and quinoa, my body doesn’t seem to do well with. Other foods, like potatoes, tofu, and almondmilk, I seem to do well with but I DO have to combine high-carb foods with protein and/or fats to prevent blood sugar crashes and severe potassium shifts. This seems to be a thing in Periodic Paralysis. I really appreciate the clarification that Elliot provides at the very end that this is not for everyone and how it’s all very hypothetical. If anything I’ve learned there’s a lot of wisdom in “Everything in moderation,” and “Be not extreme in any of your ways,” unless off course there’s an allergy or something similar. There’s so much we don’t know, but it sounds like this is a start into an area that we’ll get much better clarity in the years to come.

Hi thanks Elliot!you’re very knowledgeable and thank you for sharing valuable information!take care!

I have oxalate crystal affected my skin and feeling really painful, used to drink green tea and almond milk, ate large spinach salads, kale, beets.

Wow great info..no wonder i feel like crap and bones hurts making almond milk with salad and fruit with superfood....carnivore diet saved me ..thank you meat and liver

WooHoo! Who is this guy!! Great Info! Great presentation. I subscribed! Be Well 💫

Wonderful, thanks.

Yup! This might be TMI, but I ate 5 blueberries as a test after 11 months of no fruits or vegetables and the next day I had a really itchy ultimate end of gastrointestinal system. Delicacy forbids more precise (or vulgar) nomenclature 😉

I know this is an OLD YT video but I am deep diving AGAIN my Ketovore lifestyle since 2019 that cured my "arthritis" but now having sporadic knuckle pain and stiffness in hands. From this and Sally Norton, it seems that Oxalate dumping can be a multi years and cyclical process even after eliminating almost all oxalate. You cannot remove all because our body makes a little. I had cycled off of 2-3d of high intensity cycling in 2022 to spend more time with my 15yo son whom is a competitive golfer before he starts driving and High School. Those months of no aerobic exercise and sweating really caught up to me. After just 4 days of 50+ minute zone 2-3 exercising and associated very hot South, I believe I have sweated out oxalate via skin (my eyes have had strange mucous for months without resolve too). Now my knuckles no longer hurt and swelling has reduced, I am having normal tears in eyes, hands are slightly stiff but 75% back to normal. DO NOT skip over the need to sweat oxalate out as the skin, kidney and eyes seem to be common pathways.....and it can occur for YEARS. Just ask Sally.

Just been exposed to this information recently, so insightful and I think this is the cause of my fatigue and brain fog……

Outstanding

He is a cleaver person , as he montioned that we dont need those antioxidants , what actualy we need is the opposite : we need the oxygen , our cells are living from oxygen , the bad pathogens , bacterias , viruses etccc in our body are anaerobic , they meaning is they cant stay in our body as it is full of oxegyn : yhats why i still beleive that mms found by jim humble is the best way (depend on my experience it could break the oxalates and hlyphosates to small parts and makes it easy for the body to throw it away ) together with diet to the healthy life

Please post best most current list of oxalate foods!!!

That is how I've tried to improve my health. I am having to reconsider my daily regime of raw Green drinks.

Seems to me that we are omnivores. Going 100 percent either carnivore or vegan seems unhealthy. I have tried both, and extremes have caused me the problems.

Very interesting. I think his liver eating scurvey patient was actually experiencing vitamin A toxicity though.

Thank you! Very nice information.

Its seems to me that oxalates can explain non-infectionary prostatis in men! Unexplained pain in and around the testicles and scrotum

2:08:51 Vitamin C (ascorbic acid). The Megadose discussion.

That is right, I'm from Brazil and rice and beans are a staple food for everyone every day 24/7 for most people. My dad is almost in his 90s and never had big health issues, other then high blood pressure ( off course is caused by his very sweety many cups of coffee a day and too much carbs) he never really eat vegetables other then potatoes, cassava and pampkim. His diet is mainly rice,beans,meats,pampkim, potatoes and cassava...bread,cake, and orange and one banana every day,that's it, and he doesn't drink not even one liter of water per day,,the most couple glasses a day. Now I ask, is it the 2 little water a day really necessary for everyone?? Maybe not. He goes to bed around 8 PM and up by 6 AM ,have a few short naps during the day. His muscles are hard as rocks, doesn't have many gray hair,not too many wrinkles, ( maybe because he used to eat a lot of pig skin, tons of collagen into it) he smoked until close to his 70s, used to drink hard alcohol until close to 65s and yet very healthy. Has more health then many of us who excercises, eat "healthy " avoid sugar,avoid too much fat,avoid too much carbs,avoid too much salt,eat organic, avoid too much pollution, practice meditate,yoga, positive affirmation, detox this, detox that,cleansing parasites, etc.....yet we are not so healthy.

this is just part of it, the plants have many things that cause trouble, we know a few, lectins, polyphenols,tannins,arsenic and more. the bottom line is what works for you. how hard is it to try carnivore for 2 months,you will be able to fast easily too, because meat makes you full .it really works, i am making my meat cookies, i buy the cheapest hamburger ,add a strip of bacon and cheese on that. i eat them whenever i get hungry which is not very often, the only time i really get hungry is when i cheat and eat some carb or sugar. if i stay away from carbs i can go a long time without getting hungry ,AMAZING i never thought i was addicted to sugar, I WAS ! every problem is fixed now. meat and salt (clean water ) saved my life !! 60 yr old guy ! huge libido WOW

How shall I avoid oxalates? Shall I not eat those fruits/veggies/nuts ? Beet greens Rhubarb Spinach Beets Swiss chard Endive Cocoa powder Sweet potatoes Peanuts Turnip greens Star fruit

Citrusfruits and applecider vinigear should be good to dissolve kidneystones? As I understand it, oxolates can turn to kidneystones?

I think Sally Norton has mentioned that some plants can shoot/spit oxalates at people and touching some plants can poison you with oxalates. Any info on houseplants which may cause oxalate problems for us?

Still waiting for the adrenal fatigue follow up video and thiamine follow up videos lol

Elliot = good knowledgeable guy.

are there oxylates or lectins in maraijuana oil? Iv noticed I tent to twitch when I consume it. I also get phlegm . I also feel like I get bloated ,But I havent found information on this.Wiz kalifa, the rapper, mentioned on the Joe Rogan podcast, he is allergic to certain weed, and makes and only smokes his own. EDIT- yes there are oxylates in marijuana, I wonder if smoking instead of oils removes the issue.

Hello and thank you for this very interesting interview! Oxalate is an exciting sujet, but i don't speak very well english, do you know where can I find an interview like this in french language please? Thank you from Belgium! :D

I feel like not eatiing anything 😕 at all....we were taught to eat our vegetables, salads 🥗 juicing, 🥔 🍠 rice, beans, meat, 🐔 🍖 🥓 🧀 and now at 60 got bacteria pyloris" but all my symptoms are 💯 % what 😳 you guys are talking oxalates... Thnk you

I don't live to eat... I eat to live. That's my moto :3

I didn’t know oxalates could cause fatigue . Good to know.

Thank you 😊

3 hours? Holy shit I guess I will give it a go when I'm driving all day tomorrow. THREE HOURS on oxylates?

I'm very curious about all these oxalate plants and herbs etc....in India people are mainly vegetarian consume high amounts of cinamon, turmeric etc and they must be doing something we are not,and they dont seam to have oxalates problems. Why is that? What are we missing??

Great listen!

would love to hear your take on deuterium at some point

kiwi has an proteolytic enzyme called actinidine, and that's what causing the abrasive sensation, same with pineapple, espacially when it's not ripe enough

Very good interview.

Been CARNIVORE for eight months. Plantar fasciitis for almost 2 years. I think they're linked.. I developed the PF when I was in México staying at a place that had a star fruit tree in the back yard. Ate one a day for weeks and then mysteriously develiped WICKED PF... It stayed for 1.5 years and then left but shifted to the other foot! So now I am pretty sure that years of green smoothies have probably caused all this pain. Since no one knows the reason for PF, like many ailments, I'm going to hasten to guess it's oxalates. My issue is that I dunt know how to get rid of them slowly

I think Elliot must have got good grades in Science.
