✓ Medically Reviewed Content reviewed by OxalateWatch Editorial Team. Based on Harvard T.H. Chan SPH oxalate data (2024) and NKF/AUA dietary guidelines.

Peaches are a quiet achiever in the kidney stone fruit world: about 1 mg oxalate per medium peach. They're sweet, juicy, require no preparation beyond washing, and are in season throughout the summer when stone risk peaks due to dehydration. The high water content (89%) contributes to your hydration goals. Canned peaches in juice are a decent off-season alternative — just avoid the heavy syrup versions. Fresh is always better, and at 1 mg per fruit, you can eat them freely without adding anything meaningful to your daily oxalate total.
