Is peanut butter and jelly sandwich high in oxalate?
Yes. High, 47 mg per 1 sandwich
Range 47 to 47 mg across the studies behind each ingredient
One serving of peanut butter and jelly sandwich (1 sandwich) has about 47 mg of oxalate, 94% of the 50 mg a day many stone clinics aim for. Peanut butter carries 81% 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.
