🔍 Key Insights

1 **Mostly safe territory.** 14 out of 17 foods (82%) in this intersection fall in the safe oxalate range (under 25 mg per serving). That's good news — you have plenty of low-oxalate options here.
2 **Big oxalate range.** The spread is 0 to 74 mg per serving — a 74 mg difference. Best pick: **Corn Syrup** (0 mg). Most caution needed: **Flour** (74 mg).
3 **Low average oxalate.** The mean across all 17 foods is 15.4 mg per serving — solidly in the safe zone. You can build meals around these foods with confidence.
4 **Sodium alert.** 4 foods in this intersection are high in sodium (460+ mg/100g). Excess sodium increases urinary calcium — a known kidney stone risk factor. Check sodium levels alongside oxalate when choosing.
