How accurate is the oxalate measurement?
The measurements use ion chromatography, the accepted reference method for oxalate. That means real lab values for each food rather than inferred numbers. Some natural variation exists between samples, but this is the strongest published data set. Applied to Rice milk: 2 mg oxalate per 1 cup — Safe per Harvard (2024).
