- #Vitamin A deficiency has been shown to reduce urinary #Citrate and pH, and to increase the presence of urinary calculi. - Supplementation with high amounts of #Vitamin A (retinol) in a calcium oxalate stone rat model enhanced urinary #Citrate levels, increased urinary pH, and lowered the concentration of calcium and oxalate in renal tissues - [#Oxalobacter formigenes] - O. formigenes reduced urinary #oxalate levels and could provide a protective effect against calcium #oxalate stone formation

- #Oxalobacter formigenes, consume #oxalate in the gut and limit kidney stone formation.
