Prevent kidney stone: You should see a urologist to see if you have a cause for these stones that can be treated. You may have too much calcium (c) in your urine, you may be making too much uric acid (ua) or the kidneys may not be secreting enough ua. Have a 24 hour urine done to find out its c and ua content. Depending on the results, your urologist may be able to order some medicine to stop new stones from forming.

Kidney stones: There are several types of kidney stones so to a large degree the causative dietary items depend on composition. Most stones are calcium oxalate. Calcium intake is mot really the culprit. Oxylic acid often is though. There is likely a genetic predisposition for many, if not most, stone formers. Drinking enough fluid to make 2 liters of urine per day is the cornerstone of prevention for most.
