You may have heard somewhere that milk helps in the development of kidney stones. However, it is a myth, and scientific research does not confirm that correlation. In fact, the milk reduces the risk of stones! Diet with a lot of calcium reduces absorption of oxalates, substances present in some types of vegetables (spinach), but also in other food (tea and chocolate). Oxalates bounds with calcium and the calcium-oxalates are formed, that makes kidney stone.
