I know many of you will say, “Oh my, she has finally gone off the deep end. Sweet potatoes AND sunflower seeds in the same dish?” Why yes, guess what, you can have it.
Notice the oxalate level in one bowl is around 23mg. This is why I scream about portion all the time. You can eat most foods (no, not almond and spinach) if you watch the portion size. Many of you overate the highest oxalate foods without having any calcium in your day, and that (along with perhaps other things) led to your stones.
Much of my day is spent educating patients on safely bringing back MORE foods on a low oxalate diet. It can be done. Here is just an example.
Enjoy!
