• Health Diet for Kidney stones
• Small masses of minerals and salt that accumulate
  inside your kidneys are known as kidney stones.
  Sometimes they also move down the urinary tract
  and can be in the size of small tiny dots to as
  big as a ping pong ball. Patients suffering with
  kidney stones usually complain of pain in the
  abdomen or groin and at times they may also have
  blood in urine.
• Patients with kidney stones need to follow a
  different diet. A change in your diet will help
  in stopping of further formation of kidney
  stones. Depending on the type of stone the diet
  would be different. A good dietician will tell
  you what diet should be followed for which stone.
• Calcium Oxalate Stones
• Calcium Phosphate Stones
• Cysteine Stones
• Uric Acid Stones
• Calcium Oxalate Stones
• This is the most common type of kidney stones
  that are found in patients. People with this type
  of kidney stone need to reduce oxalate, sodium
  and limit animal protein. They would have to draw
  as much calcium from foods. Oxalate would be
  found in nuts and their products, spinach,
  rhubarb, wheat bran and peanuts. Sodium is
  usually high in all packaged, canned, seasonings
  and fast food. Animal protein is chicken, fish,
  beef, pork, shellfish etc. Even milk and dairy
  products come under it.

• Calcium Phosphate Stones
• Like the calcium oxalate stone a patient with
  calcium phosphate stone would also have to reduce
  sodium and animal protein intake. Plant based
  animal protein are good and they can be consumed
  soy milk and its products, legumes like lentils
  including peanuts or dried peas or beans,
  sunflower seeds, nuts and its products are good
  proteins which can be consumed. However the
  dietician should confirm the quantity per intake.
  Calcium should be consumed in the form of
  cereals, breads, beans and fortified juices.
• Cysteine Stones
• A cysteine stone is a type of kidney stone which
  is formed from amino acid cysteine. When a
  patient has this type of stone they should drink
  a lot of water. A health care professional would
  be able to advise you on how much liquid intake
  is required.
• Uric Acid Stones
• Such stones are quite common in children. These
  are caused by purines which is a chemical
  compound found in organ meats, red meats and
  shellfish. Animal protein needs to be limited for
  patients with this type of stone. Plant based
  protein is always good and should be had in a
  limited way.
