Browse meat and poultry products. Based on Harvard T.H. Chan SPH oxalate data (2024).
76 foods in this collection
Meat and poultry are effectively oxalate-free — most items measure under 5 mg per serving — which puts them on the safe side of the oxalate table. The stone-relevant consideration is different: animal protein raises uric acid, can increase calcium excretion, and lowers protective urinary citrate. The AUA guidance is about portion, not elimination: roughly a palm-sized 3-ounce serving per meal, with non-dairy animal protein balanced against plant sources and dairy. Meat is not the oxalate problem in a stone diet; it is one dial among several.
