    Sufficient calcium reduces intestinal oxalate absorption and minimizes urinary oxalic acid levels. Some reports suggest that kidney stones occur one-third less after calcium supplementation. The suspicion of "calcium supplementary stones" should be dispelled, as long as there is no hypercalciuria, insist on reasonable calcium supplementation is safe and effective. Food calcium is better than medicine calcium, like milk, beans, nuts, fish and shrimp and dark green vegetables are rich in calcium, the actual eating bone soup is emulsified fat.
