depends on the type of stone. Uric acid stones are caused by dehydration. 80% of stones are calcium oxalate though so make sure you get plenty of calcium (I know that sounds weird but it makes sense physiologically, trust me) and avoid oxalates. Coffee, tea, chocolate, spinach, potatoes, almonds

>What kind of foods and drinks should I avoid to not get kidney stones?
Calcium supplements are great for bone health, but an excess ends up in the kidneys. Same goes for chomping on antacids that are calcium based.
There is some carbonated soda/water association in some studies as well as their link to benign breast lumps in both sexes and bone mineral loss. There are multiple explanations. Don't consume it to excess or be one of those people that only drink seltzer.
There are foods high in oxalates, like spinach and they also grab that calcium while in the presence of uric acid in the kidneys. Don't avoid the list of high oxalate veggies, but you should also know about them, and realize you should eat a variety of foods, not the same things day after day.

Drinks lot of water throughout the day, not just at once. This will let you kidneys get all the liquid they want as they do their job, so impurities aren't in there in concentrated form maybe doing some magical bonding with each other, as elements and molecules like to do.

I’ve had kidney stones before, worst pain I’ve ever felt in my life.

My stones were caused by stress. I actually have a full record of every single thing that I ate leading up to the stones via Chronometer. But yeah, drink water, avoid high fat and high protein (no meat) and don’t eat too much spinach, don’t listen to that other retarded anon, too much calcium WILL cause stones, drink plenty of water but not too much. You should not be thirsty when you wake up in the morning, that is a good tell.

But if you want to report it fine. It's just stupid because that's not what SFW was ever for and if you're browsing 4chan at work for anything other than research you should be fired anyways.

alot of shitters in this thread. Kidney stones are simply calcium build up that have hardened and turned to "stones" in the kidney. the number 1 cause of this is drinking too much milk (i know because ive had them twice as a kid from drinking GALLONS of chocolate milk in a day or 2)

you can usually pass them via enema or pills that cause diarrhea. to avoid them simply dont over intake on foods/drinks that are high in calcium.

there is no foods that "reduce risk" of getting kidney stones... you have to actually TRY very hard to get that many stones into your body or just be a lazy fat fuck that doesnt watch what he is eating. guy in OPs pic is more than likely dead if he had that many stones in him.

any liquid that is high in minerals or mineral forming ingredients (such as calcium) is going to give you stones. thats not a meme, its just common sense.

Believe it or not, it’s not the calcium that causes the stones, per se.
high oxalate foods can cause calcium oxalate stones when eaten in large amounts IF you don’t bind the oxalates with calcium, which prevents it from being absorbed into the bloodstream and passed through the kidneys.

So drink milk with your spinach, almonds, chocolate. Use that calcium to bind those oxalates.

Also.., drink water. At least half your body weight (in ounces) per day. Keep those kidneys running clean.
