More water please.
Just as with any diet, increased fluid will do wonders. Water is the most recommended. In this diet to prevent kidney stones is an absolute must.

Football - the double-sided sword.
An appropriate amount of calcium is necessary in any diet. This mineral plays a vital role in keeping the body healthy and strong. You can get the correction of calcium from the cheese and dairy products. Dark-green leafy vegetables, on the other hand, are also a source, but not very good giving your body only small amounts of this mineral. There are also pills who can be taken to make sure you meet your daily requirement.
The body does not absorb more calcium than you really need. This is the norm given. However, too much calcium is absorbed and passed kidney stones giving you the chance to form. If this is the case, a thin margin of calcium-will be administered 800 mg per day.
Oxalic acid or oxalate.
