104 Oxalate Fear: Trendy Health Traps

These days, the health and wellness industry really isn’t much
better than it was years ago, especially when it comes to the
chronically ill getting the help they need for healing. Some
aspects have improved, but for the most part it’s still the same
old sea of confusion out there. Carb-free diets, milk cleanses,
meat only diets, extreme water fasting, bone broth cleanses,
intermittent fasting, eat-what-you-want diets, trendy supplements
filled with natural flavors, or supplements that are just toxic in
general...the list goes on and on. It’s a wonder how the
chronically ill can find their way through it all. And then there’s
the good ole Oxalate Theory that peaks its ugly head out every five
years and torments the people who are already tormented by what
ails them. There are a few reasons why oxalate fear is still here
and it’s the same reasons so many other fads and trends of health
are still here: it’s marketing, PR campaigns, shock and awe
strategies based on fear, and to this day, no one really knows why
people are really sick. Just say oxalates are the cause and the
fear takes over; it’s an easy sell, but it’s not the reality. It’s
still a world of guessing games out there. The health movement
keeps reigniting and spreading oxalates over and over again. An
unfounded theory that holds people with chronic illness back and
places them in a fear-based mentality with food...this is a
nightmare. And as far as the influencers and health professionals
that keep talking up and spreading oxalate fear, let’s just say
it’s truly sad in so many ways. The truth is almost every food has
oxalates in it, including animal protein. The people screaming
their heads off about oxalates are picking on a small list of
fruits and veggies, and spinach takes the biggest hit. Meanwhile,
spinach is a powerful healing leafy green for the chronically ill.
In this episode… Discover why oxalate fear is a recycled health
trend trap that diverts chronically ill people from effective
healing paths. Learn how testing for oxalates is unreliable and
lacks accuracy. Find out why the fear of oxalate-rich foods is
unnecessary and harmful, and why foods like spinach, celery, and
potatoes are demonized. Learn how kidney stones are not caused by
oxalates and why that’s a flawed theory. Discover the truth about
viral infections and how they are the real cause of many chronic
illnesses, not oxalates. Find out why the oxalate theory is
recycled misinformation and how it resurfaces periodically,
misleading new generations of health seekers. Learn how mainstream
and alternative health practitioners can unintentionally spread
misleading oxalate fears. Even well-meaning doctors and health
coaches may unknowingly promote harmful ideas due to lack of
experience with chronic illness. Discover how Medical Medium tools
(like celery juice and zinc) are real solutions and effective
treatments for chronic conditions, as opposed to avoiding oxalates.
