The plant-based trend isn’t driven by nutrition—it’s marketing. Consumers are misled into fearing animal foods and embracing sugar-loaded fruits, oxalate-rich veggies, and inflammatory plant products. Enter lab-made meats like Impossible Foods, falsely sold as eco-friendly. 💩 The truth? Real health comes from ethically raised animal foods. Don’t fall for the greenwashed hype—follow the money. 💸👀

Oxalates are natural compounds in some plant foods that can bind to calcium in the body. Excess oxalates may form calcium oxalate kidney stones—8 in 10 stones are this type. High-oxalate foods include spinach, beets, rhubarb, and black tea. To reduce risk, stay hydrated, limit salt and protein, avoid high-dose vitamin C, and eat calcium-rich foods like broccoli and kale with meals. Proper cooking can reduce oxalate content in plant foods.

Spinach may not be as healthy as you think. It's extremely high in oxalates—1,510 mg per cup cooked—which can contribute to kidney stones and conditions like vulvodynia in women. Oxalates bind with calcium, forming harmful crystals. To reduce risk, avoid high-oxalate greens like spinach and choose low-oxalate options like romaine, arugula, and cabbage instead. Talk to your doctor if you have symptoms or kidney stone history.
