    Today we’re going to look at the interesting similarities between gout and kidney stones and natural alternatives for these concerns.
    Oxalates are involved in both kidney stones and gout. People who have high oxalates in their urine tend to have a worsening gout situation, and the most common type of kidney stones are calcium oxalate stones.
    Top foods high in oxalates:
    • Spinach
    • Rhubarb
    • Almonds
    • Chocolate
    • Cacao
    • Buckwheat
    • Wheat
    • Beans
    • Soy
    • Tofu
    • Miso
    • Potato chips
    • French fries
    • Beet tops
    • Swiss chard
    • Star fruit
    • Raspberries
    • Black pepper
    • Black tea
    Nuts high in oxalates:
    • Almonds
    • Brazil nuts
    • Hazelnuts
    • Cashews
    • Pine nuts
    Nuts low in oxalates:
    • Coconuts
    • Peanuts
    • Pistachios
    • Macadamia nuts
    • Walnuts
    Something else that can increase oxalates is consuming excess ascorbic acid or glycine. Fat malabsorption due to a bile deficiency can also cause an increase in oxalates. If you’re prone to kidney stones or gout, you may also want to avoid consuming xylitol.
    Some people develop gout as they age due to an increase in iron and inflammation. If you’re in this situation, you might want to try reducing the amount of iron you consume and work on lowering your inflammation.
    How to neutralize oxalates:
    1. Drink two and a half liters of fluid per day
    2. Consume calcium-rich foods
    3. Take vitamin D3
    4. Consume citrates (lemon juice in water)
    5. Get plenty of vitamin B6
    6. Get plenty of vitamin B1
    7. Consume a moderate amount of protein on Healthy Keto®
    8. Lower your sodium
    9. Consume more potassium
    10. Consume foods low in oxalates

      Doctor Berg, I had multiple incidents where I prepared a favorite Ground Beef recipe that uses a lot of Garlic and Onion salt.... and had what seemed to be needle like gravel collect in my bladder... which felt like the worst conceivable bladder infection... but no bacteria.. per test. Curious if those high doses of Garlic and Onion Salt might have triggered a dumping of Oxylates. It took several days to pass the "needles". But I can't think of another explanation.

Couldn’t pass it bc of the size, had two stents, and ureteroscopy. Someone told me about drinking lemon water every day to prevent stones. Drink plenty of water and take Vit D and K together. Never had another one! 🙏🏼✝️

    How did I miss this 11 months ago? In January I went carnivore and experienced an oxalate dump. Took a couple of weeks to figure it out. The little buggers were coming out my ears, eyes, skin and diarrhea. Painful! So I got Sally K Nortons book and listened to her and a few others. Now I'm low oxalate and taking some of the supplements as you suggest. But yours is the best, most informative and concise video on the subject that I've seen. And i watch you almost every day. I wish I wouldn't have skipped over this one 11 months ago. Thanks for all your super informative and concise videos. You're a great educator.

    Cabbage chelates iron, takes it out of the body tissue. Good for hemochromatosis, better than bloodletting or blood donation. Substitute coleslaw for French fries. Growing up I was anemic and had to take iron pills, someone told me to stay away from cabbage because it depletes iron. Getting my bachelor's degree in fine arts, I needed a science class so I took nutrition and learned about chelation.

    So now that I told you about what I do for oxalates what happened with gout is I had it for six weeks didn’t know what it was. This was back in 2005. I went to the doctor. She gave me some medication. I did some research on the side effects and I wasn’t happy so I did a research on natural ways. And I found a level teaspoon of baking soda in the morning, a level teaspoon of baking soda mixed in water at night, and in three days six weeks of hell was over. Fast forward 15 years later, my fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue I was in so much pain for weeks. My doctor said this is your new normal. I was like there’s no way in hell. What happened? Well I decided the pain is so excruciating in every joint. It actually felt like out in every joint. You can imagine how painful that was so I did baking soda and water in the morning and at night and it took 10 days but 10 days after weeks of hell it was completely gone so baking soda is my savior.!!

    Happy you made this video. I started the keto diet because of you and I got so sick. Not keto flu sick, but like my eyes constantly burned and were red with a roach around them, I had insane amounts of inflammation and fatigue as well as insomnia, I developed full body peripheral neuropathy for several days, l was having so many kidney issues and signs of diabetes. I am a 22 year old, healthy and extremely active girl. I weight train, do lots of cardio, yoga, meditate, and only eat organic Whole Foods. I literally can’t remember the last time I ate out or ate something processed with refined sugars, etc etc. when I started keto I was eating a whole lot of almond butter, spinach salads with salmon, dark chocolate with my almond butter, sweet potatoes as my one carb a day, or beets in my salad, etc etc. after this is when it all started and I stopped keto because I was like this is clearly not for me. After extensive research about what could be happening to me, I learned about oxalates. I’ve been gradually minimizing them to avoid dumping and WOW!!! All those symptoms are gone and I’m starting to feel like myself again. I will attempt a mostly keto diet again without those foods. Please start mentioning this is your keto videos because it may be a huge reason why so many struggle to stick with keto. Oxalates caused me to have ravenous cravings on keto, and it wasn’t even carb cravings, I just felt soooo hungry. I no longer feel that at all and my appetite has diminished SO much. I’m 5’0 105 pounds so I’m not trying to lose a lot of weight, but I gained 10 pounds in the last several months and now I’m finally down 5 pounds after making these changes.

      Interesting !
      I lost about 30 pounds after 3 week keto and OMAD, skin and bone, I think keto is not for me because I don’t want to lose weight just for my pre diabetes and autophagy. Since I added back carbs on my diet, I have gained back almost all my weight in a short period of time. It makes me think that keto is best for overweighted ppl, but might not for thin people 🤔

    • @Alexandrianoelleallen
      @Alexandrianoelleallen Рік тому +2

      @@recuerdos2457 I think keto can have a lot of benefits for everyone as an excessive amount of carbs (especially the kind most people consume today) are not good for us and I find I feel a lot better eating mostly fat and protein with moderate carbs. Not as low as the standard keto ratio but much lower than I used to eat. Most of the initial weight loss people have from keto is water weight and carbs retain more water so I bet a lot of your weight loss consisted of that as well! If you ever did want to try it again it’d probably be best to eat more food than you usually would which I consider a blessing because I love food lol. A lot of carbs always makes me feel bleh

    I watch family members go down with diabetes and I wasn't feeling good, I was bound and determined not to go down like that. In my 40s, I'm much lighter and my numbers are good, never diabetic.

    Once again, highly impressed with your work Eric.
    My take on stones is a diet high on acid forming foods and low on alkaline foods causing low PH in the blood. As alkaline minerals come in without the presence of Vit D, calcium (all forms of alkaline minerals to a degree, but Calcium is the big one) free flows of Calcium in the blood in high amounts because there isn't enough Vitamin D to take it to storage, leads to Calcium buffering acids in the blood like Oxalates, UA etc. and start to solidify into stones as these acids become partially uncoupled from alkaline minerals when removed from the kidneys into the Urine.
    I'm of the opinion that the blood is acidified "before" alkaline minerals are introduced from meal digestion. Combine it with deficiencies relating to the body not being able to store alkaline minerals as they come in, or deal with buildup of purines (compromised Folate cycle from B deficiencies), some dehydration etc, and we've got conditions ripe for stones. I like your take on Iron bonding to Oxalates, did I read that right? Or iron used as a buffer in general with acids that build up as a probable cause of gout, makes sense with the meat connection to gout and gravity pulling these toxins into area's like the big toe, I'll have to take a deeper dive into it for the nuances.
    Appreciate your videos as usual, Eric.

    "Glycine can also increase your risk of oxalates as well" (2'55"). Glycine itself does not increase the risk of oxalates. In fact, glycine is not associated with oxalate metabolism in a way that would lead to an increased risk of oxalate-related issues, such as kidney stone formation.

I might as well have been shooting up pure oxalate. Cocoa in my coffee every morning, greens with every meal, nuts as a snack. Changed all that around and crossing my fingers so that I don't have to go through that nightmare again.

    For kidney stones the main symptom is severe sharp pain that starts suddenly, usually in your belly or one side of your back, and it may go away just as quickly. Other symptoms can include abnormal urine color, blood in your urine, fever, chills, nausea, and vomiting.

      Warchild, refugee and legal immigrant here. kina virus released to fk up the elections...millions dead, billion+ with heart/organ issues...evil know no bounds, 100% intentionally released...just to get one man out of office, one man they could not buy/control. I have seen what communism will do to stay in or get in power. Anything! Chinese killed 30+ million of their own for power less than a century ago. It was a crazy conspiracy theory that FBI smoked Kennedy and now we know it is true.
      It was a conspiracy theory that kina virus was manmade but now we know it is true. MSM/Big Tech working overtime to censor/ban. This was intentionally released to fk up US election and for the Chinese to get protesters of Hong Kong streets because if Hong Kong goes so do commies in China. Win-win for commies and US dems....millions dead, billion+ with heart/organ issues. Godless people will always create hell.

      About 6 yrs ago had my own kidney stone nightmare... Everything you said is absolutely true! Starts with mild back pain and it just gets worse wicked fast! Never endured that much pain ever! Turned out it was calcium deposits? After a couple trips to the E.R. they realized the scripts had no effect and they admitted me and had surgery. I'd say Im durable but that was brutal! Much healthier now days...

All this started when I started eating healthier-I’m starting to think oxolates are wrecking my whole body!

    I had my first gout attack when I was 25, it lasted a week. 6 years later and I'm still battling gout. All it really takes is a dietary change unless your kidneys need to be replaced. I am definitely overweight but come to realize if I hit a certain weight, gout is essentially none existent. I also started to take 300-600mg of allopurinol/day, that may be the biggest game changer - one 300mg in the morning and one at night, an hour or so before I sleep with a full glass of water. Seems to be best taken at night if you only take one pill a day as uric acid forms overnight when your body is resting.

    I had to give up roughly 10% of my vegan lifestyle to cope with the problem of creating too many kidney stones that had me in the hospital for two days two separate times. Between the tofu and soy meat alternatives, half the beans and almost all the nuts, it added up very quickly in my overload of oxalates.
    Fish, poultry, oat milk, lemon and vinegar water put me back on track to recovery.
    Two things I have a problem with, too many oxalates in me and too many oxalis in the yard.

    I was precisely thinking about this oxalate issue about greens and nuts that I consume in high quantity and lead me to a sort of gout after a certain time a few days ago I realized it could be due to this excess of oxalates and I lowered ,in fact the crisis quite vanished immediately ( the next day let's say) as I also was increasing yogurt or fermented milk
    I did it instinctively and your explanation is now confirming that I was right
    I also use different methods to neutralize as much as possible ( fermentation, cooking etc.)

      Same frustration here. I believe every body is different and same in some ways. You can't apply cookie cutter diet to all. On some Carnivore does wonders, on others Vegan does. We should have better testing system, more automated, to see what type someone is and recommend foods and suppliments accordingly and not cookie cutter approach.

    Dr Berg, you are amazing! I love your recent streak of videos about kidney stones. I’m a quadriplegic female, with indwelling catheter. Originally I had proteus, and then crystals appeared.. struvite and apatite.. 2 years later, the UA’s show multi flora only, and crystals due to epithelial cells.. I’ve been trying to take a load of supplements… for the last 2 years, without success. The hard thing I need to get used to is starving the colonized proteus, just my guess, is quit sugar and carbs.. I feel I do need AB, but the ones I’ve had so far for only two weeks .. are not enough to clear my situation. I hope everything will heal after changing my chocolate fries etc loving self…

      I also remember to eat enough of the vegetables I prepare everyday with care. Vegetables stopped most of my cravings. Adding good flavourings, garlic, onion, ginger for example, simple and tasty.

    Thank you for addressing this. I got oxalate overload from dietary maltodextrin. I don’t know if it has oxalates or just caused me to make more oxalates but my pseudo gout went away in 3 days when I quit eating it. Also increase because oxalates accumulate in the body when you get too much.

    Fermented foods will help as well. There's a certain bacteria that consumes oxalates.
    If you have it. Then only a small amount of oxalates should pass through. The rest would be converted to B vitamins.

Even though i personally dont have a large oxalate intake in my diet, i have colitis and it can play a role. Lowering my intake of meats and protein not drinking beer whatsoever. I recommend anyone to treat your kidneys right... pain i would not wish upon anyone. Watch your oxalate intake and drink plenty of water.

    Dr. Berg, I am doing the blood type diet (A) and I also have had a kidney stone (uric acid) removal operation about a year ago. I have noted that there is a low oxalate diet that is beneficial but some of the foods on that diet clash with the blood type diet I am doing. For example, coconut. I do also eat all kinds of nuts (cashews, walnuts, almonds) but I soak them. Is that something that would be okay or does the soaking not make a difference with kidney stones? I am getting better with the urine issue and it is almost clear at times. I am also doing a carrot and raisin concoction that I think is really helping! Always enjoy your videos and learn so much. Thank You.

    For those who might not know, hyperparathyroidism can also cause kidney stones. So please, if you have kidney stones, get your doctor to check your parathyroid glands. My mom had a hole in her heart that she didn’t know about. She had a growth on one of her parathyroid glands that she didn’t know about that caused high calcium levels in her blood and urine. She had kidney stones a few times over 20 years. Finally after all those years she had a stroke due to high calcium levels in blood that formed a clot, that went through the hole in her heart, to her brain. Thankfully she had timely medical intervention and she is fine now. She ended having to have one parathyroid gland removed with the growth and the hole in her heart repaired. She was about 58 years old when all of this occurred.
