Soy sauce is negligible in oxalate. The concern with soy sauce is entirely sodium โ€” 900-1,000 mg per tablespoon, nearly half the daily recommended limit. For kidney stone patients watching sodium (which increases urinary calcium), soy sauce is one of the biggest hidden sodium sources in restaurant food. Low-sodium soy sauce cuts that roughly in half. Tamari and coconut aminos are alternatives with slightly different flavor profiles. From an oxalate perspective, soy sauce is fine. From a sodium perspective, use it like salt โ€” sparingly.
