According to the National Kidney Foundation, if you have had a calcium stone, you may need to cut back on the salt in your diet. Extra sodium causes you to lose more calcium in your urine, putting you at risk for developing another stone. Your doctor will probably advise you to limit your sodium to 2,000 to 3,000 milligrams a day. Your dietitian can help you make sodium changes in your diet.
I also found out that all kidney stones are not the same; some of them are made from calcium, and some from oxalate. If you have oxalate stones, then you might need to avoid foods that are high in oxalate such as peanuts, tea, instant coffee (more than 8 ounces a day), rhubarb, beets, beans, beets, berries (blackberries, raspberries, strawberries, gooseberries, etc. ), chocolate, Concord grapes, dark leafy greens, oranges, tofu, sweet potatoes and draft beer.
