Hi,
Please avoid beet, spinach, celery, chard, okra and parsley.
In addition you should avoid chocolates, bran, peanuts, soy products, almond, strawberries and fiber containing cereals. Taking calcium citrate and/or magnesium oxide along with meals helps to bind excess oxalate in food and reduce its absorption.
Please consult the website of oxalosis and hyperoxaluria foundation for a list of food with low,medium and high oxalate content: http://www.ohf.org/docs/Oxalate2008.pdf
I am available to answer any more queries you may have,
Wish you good health,
Dr. Raguram.
