Summary

This study looked at whether obesity increases the body's production of oxalate, a substance that can lead to kidney stones. 58 adults without a history of kidney stones ate a special low-oxalate diet for 4 days and provided urine samples. Researchers measured oxalate levels to see if they were higher in people with obesity.
