Armed with a nutrition degree from Cornell and a Master's degree in Public Health, Sally has dedicated her life to unraveling the mysteries of plant-based oxalic compounds.

We dive into the alarming deficiency of essential vitamins and minerals in the American diet and the impact of consumer demand for so-called superfoods. We also uncover the fascinating connections between genetics, lifestyle, and symptoms and get into how to address the consequences of consuming oxalate-laden foods.
