Is spinach salad with strawberries and almonds high in oxalate?
Yes. Very high, 670 mg per 1 bowl
Range 235 to 878 mg across the studies behind each ingredient
Lower-oxalate swap: use kale instead of spinach and the dish drops by about 631 mg.
One serving of spinach salad with strawberries and almonds (1 bowl) has about 670 mg of oxalate, 1340% of the 50 mg a day many stone clinics aim for. Spinach carries 94% 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.
