Are Oxalates Behind Your Chronic Complaints? Featuring: Sally K. Norton, Author of "Toxic Superfoods: How Oxalates are Making You Sick-and How to Get Better"

Podcast Episode Description:

In this episode, we are thrilled to welcome a special guest, Sally K. Norton, MPH, also known as The Ivy-League Nutritionist. Sally is the esteemed author of "Toxic Superfoods: How Oxalate Overload is Making You Sick—and How to Get Better" and "Data Companion to Toxic Superfoods" (visit her at sallyknorton.com).

Join us as we delve into Sally's journey to becoming an expert in the world of oxalates and their significant role in human health. Despite the limited discussion in the medical world—beyond kidney stones—oxalates can be a hidden cause of various symptoms. Unfortunately, many individuals remain unaware that oxalates are at the root of their health issues and are often treated only for the symptoms.

In our conversation, we explore how oxalates can contribute to gut issues, joint pain, fibromyalgia, fatigue, and more. We discuss the dietary sources of oxalates, the impact of changing dietary trends on oxalate exposure, and the resulting health problems.

We share real-life stories from our patients, illustrating how addressing oxalate overload has alleviated chronic pain, fibromyalgia, arthritis-like symptoms, and stubborn weight gain. Additionally, we cover other factors contributing to oxalate accumulation and the subsequent health issues.

We hope you enjoy our enlightening discussion with @sknorton as much as we did and look forward to having her back to further explore the fascinating world of oxalates and their impact on human health and chronic disease.
