From Diet to Damage – How Oxalates Influence Kidney Function

Are oxalates harming your kidneys, causing kidney stones, or driving hidden inflammation in the body? In this powerful discussion, Dr Grace Liu joins Fiona Chin to unpack the truth about oxalates, chronic kidney disease (CKD), gut health, kidney stones, mould exposure, candida, and the microbiome. Many people are told to follow a low oxalate diet, but is that really the long-term solution?

This video explores why oxalates may build up in the body, how poor gut health can worsen the problem, and why restoring beneficial bacteria may be the missing key. You’ll learn how oxalates may affect the kidneys, bladder, joints, breasts, bones, thyroid, and more.

The conversation also covers probiotics, peptides, fibrosis, kidney recovery, and how to support the body naturally. If you struggle with kidney stones, CKD, bladder pain, mould illness, candida, or chronic inflammation, this is a must-watch.
