In our episode we dive into how Sally began her journey to becoming an expert in the world of Oxalates and their role in human health. We touch on why in the medical world, aside from kidney stones, there is very little discussion and awareness to the extent that oxalates impact and are the cause of a variety of symptoms. Unfortunately, for many they never become aware that oxalates are the cause of their symptoms are often are given treatment to reduce the symptoms of a bigger problem. From gut issues, joint issues, fibromyalgia, fatigue...oxalates can be playing a huge factor behind some very common conditions.
We discuss the sources of oxalates and where they come from and how due to changes in dietary trends how we may be increasing our exposure and consumption that is ultimately leading to more and more problems with oxalates.
We share some information on our current patients and their stories and how improving their oxalate overload has improved their chronic pain, fibromyalgia, arthritis like pain, stubborn weight gain and much more.
Lastly, we discuss the other impacts to oxalate issues aside from dietary consumption that can lead to accumulation and ultimately health issues.
We hope you enjoy our interview and discussion with @sknorton as much as we did and look forward to having her on our show again to further discuss the world of oxalates and their impact on human health and chronic disease.
We encourage you to like, share and help us spread this valuable information if you know someone struggling with chronic health issues.
