Dr. William Shaw, founder of Great Plains Labs, teaches us what oxalates are, their effects on your health and what you can do to reduce oxalate levels in your body.
Most medical doctors don’t have oxalates on their radar. They are more prevalent than you think and they contribute to many health conditions, ranging from Chronic Fatigue to Autism. Oxalates can contribute to pain and discomfort and prevent detox. They even are a culprit in preventing heavy metals from eliminating on a hair mineral analysis.
Oxalates are caused by eating a high oxalate diet and produced by gut infections. Anyone with a long term gut infection should get check for oxalates. I provide oxalate testing and interpretation with an Organic Acids Test from Great Plains Lab.
If you’re having health issues or problems detoxing, ridding your body of oxalates can solve a lot of health problems. You also have to rid your body of oxalates before you have any hopes of getting rid of gut or systemic candida infections.
