Causes of Kidney Stones:-



💧 Dehydration from low fluid intake is a major kidney stone cause.

🔹A high dietary intake of animal protein, pickles, salt, refined sugars, and colas and a diet rich in oxalates also increases your body's risk of kidney stone formation. Foods high in oxalate, such as spinach, rhubarb, nuts, and chocolate, can increase the risk of kidney stones. Diets high in salt and animal protein can also contribute to their formation.

🫥 A person with a family history of kidney stones may be more likely to develop stones. Urinary tract infections, kidney disorders such as cystic kidney diseases, and certain metabolic disorders such as hyperparathyroidism are also linked to stone formation.

Kidney stones are more common in people with Crohn's disease. A person with recurrent kidney stones may be screened for such disorders.
