🔍 Key Insights

1 Watch for high-risk items. 8 foods (10%) are in the avoid category (100+ mg oxalate per serving). These stand out and deserve special attention. Check individual food pages for exact numbers.
2 Big oxalate range. The spread is 0 to 594 mg per serving — a 594 mg difference. Best pick: Seaweed (0 mg). Most caution needed: Swiss Chard (594 mg).
3 Moderate average oxalate. The mean is 44.4 mg per serving across 75 foods. That's above the safe threshold but below high-risk territory. Portion awareness matters here.
4 Sodium alert. 5 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.
5 Calcium benefit. 50 foods (98%) provide 100+ mg calcium per 100g. Dietary calcium binds oxalate in your gut — getting enough calcium from food is actually protective against kidney stones.
