the science suggests that you can only handle about 50 milligrams a day for the whole day long coming out of the kidneys Now 50 milligrams coming out of the kidneys would translate into eating 10 times that in food if your gut is not leaky so if you have normal gut absorption level because your the Junctions between the cells in your gut are normal because it just floats in between the cells between these tight junctions which I describe as like velcro that holds the cells together you can pour liquid through velcro even when it's closed right because there's lots of air gaps that's what's happening you're absorbing fluids that have these dissolved ions of oxalic acid and minerals and nutrients so 10 times 50 well wait a minute half is coming from your endogenous production so you only get 10 times 25 or 10 times 12 you know depending on what your kidney health is so 10 times 25 that's only 250 milligrams of oxalate in your diet
now reading your book it sounds like we know pretty clearly that the kidneys of the human body can handle 12 milligrams of oxalate and get rid of that per day
