Is lentil soup high in oxalate?

D

Yes. High, 32 mg per 1 bowl

Range 24 to 50 mg across the studies behind each ingredient

One serving of lentil soup (1 bowl) has about 32 mg of oxalate, 64% of the 50 mg a day many stone clinics aim for. Celery carries 38% of it.

If your doctor has put you on a low-oxalate diet, have it with something high in calcium, like milk, yogurt or cheese. Calcium in the same meal binds oxalate in the gut, so less of it reaches your urine.
