How Much Oxalate Is in Juice?
mg oxalate
per serving
Serving: 1 cup (250 g)
Verdict: 🟡 Caution
Per 100g: 11 mg
Data: Harvard T.H. Chan SPH (2024)
What this means: Juice is rated Caution (🟡). At 27 mg oxalate per serving, Juice is in the moderate zone (25-99 mg). It's manageable with portion awareness — try smaller servings, less frequent consumption, and pairing with calcium-rich foods. Track total daily oxalate to stay under ~100 mg.
Among beverages, Juice sits below the category average of 40 mg. For context, 82 out of 92 beverages (89%) are rated 🟢 Safe (under 25 mg oxalate/serving). The average beverages in our database has 40 mg oxalate per serving — which means Juice is 32% below the category norm. Within its specific category, Juice ranks among the lower-oxalate options. This context matters because two 'Safe' foods can have very different oxalate levels — one might have 5 mg while another has 24 mg. Both are Safe, but the first gives you more dietary flexibility. Browse all beverages rated Caution to compare within the same verdict level.
Why does oxalate per 100g matter?
The per-100g number lets you compare foods on an equal-weight basis, regardless of serving size. It's useful when two foods have very different typical serving sizes, or when you eat more or less than a standard serving.
How accurate is the oxalate measurement?
Harvard's 2024 analysis used ion chromatography — the gold standard for oxalate measurement. These are direct lab values, not estimates or database calculations. Variability exists between samples, but this is the most reliable reference available.
How does this compare to other foods?
Foods under 25 mg per serving are rated Safe. Foods between 25-99 mg are Caution. 100+ mg is Avoid. Check the food's category page on OxalateWatch to see how it compares to similar foods.
