Abstract

Diet has a key role in determining urinary chemistry and can influence the risk of stone formation. The nutritional risk factors include an inadequate intake of fluids or excessive intake of foods rich in oxalates, sodium, calcium or animal protein. Diet influences urinary constituents and pH, which may affect stone nucleation and growth.
