10. Parsley
Parsley is rich in zinc, potassium, calcium, folates, and iron. It’s also a good source of vitamin B12, B6, E, C, K, and A. Some of its benefits to the health are the prevention or treatment of nausea, bloating, cramps, indigestion, diabetes, and cancer. The downside is that it is also high in oxalate as it contains 100 milligrams per 3.5 ounces.
Things to Remember
Oxalate is produced in the system and it is present in some foods. Having a small amount is not bad, but it is when the level gets high that it becomes a problem. If you have kidney stones, avoid these foods that are high in oxalate to prevent the problem from getting worse. Some of the symptoms of kidney stones include pain on urination and severe pain below the ribs and on your side and back. Consult your doctor immediately if you experience any of these symptoms.
