Detailed explanation-1: -Salt and sugar In addition to causing weight gain, your diet may also involve taking in chemicals that directly contribute to kidney stone formation. Common culprits include fructose, found in table sugar and high fructose corn syrup, as well as salt, which increases the amount of calcium in your kidneys.
Detailed explanation-2: -A diet low in calcium actually increases your chances of developing kidney stones. Don’t reduce the calcium in your diet. Work to cut back on the sodium in your diet and to pair calcium-rich foods with oxalate-rich foods.
Detailed explanation-3: -Reduce dietary sodium: The risk of kidney stones increases with increased daily sodium consumption. A low-sodium diet is recommended for people who form calcium stones. Excess sodium is excreted by the kidneys, which also increases the calcium in your urine, increasing stone formation.
Detailed explanation-4: -Fructose intake, mainly as table sugar or high fructose corn syrup, has increased in recent decades and is associated with increased risk for kidney stones.
