❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Can I eat Trout with kidney stones?

What's the oxalate content of Trout?
0 mg — that's the oxalate in a standard 3 oz of Trout. For the 100g comparison freaks: 0 mg. Source is Harvard's 2024 food analysis project.
Is Trout low or high oxalate?
Nope. Trout is a low-oxalate food — just 0 mg per 3 oz. Well under the 25 mg cutoff. You're in the clear with this one.
What can I eat instead of Trout?
Don't give up the whole category — just pick a safer member of it. The green foods in the related section all work as substitutes for Trout with a fraction of the oxalate.
Does Trout have a lot of animal protein?

The 0 mg oxalate figure is direct from Harvard's lab — measured, not estimated. The sodium/protein/calcium numbers aren't fully matched yet. When they are, we'll update.
