Hi, Eunice.
You can join the Trying Low Oxalates Facebook page if you have a Facebook account. That’s also a good way to get information about oxalate values and the LOD. You do need a Yahoo account to join the Yahoo group, but it’s simple to set up. It is not an email account. It’s a free business account with Yahoo that allows you access to their groups and forums. You can tie it to a free yahoo email account if you want (I do), but you don’t have to.
Hope this helps.
Heidi

Can I join the group without creating a yahoo account? I have many of the symptoms mentioned on http://www.vulvarpainfoundation.org and want to try the low oxalate diet but am very confused by all the different things I’m finding on the net. When I went to join to get the list, it wanted me to create a yahoo account and I am not that computer savvy and don’t want another email account, is that what that is? Thank you for any help.

Thanks for your comment, Ghila.
Quinoa, green tea and coriander are all high oxalate. Wild rice is tricky because it depends a lot on the brand and cooking method. If you soak Lundberg organic wild rice for at least 12 hours before cooking, you can drop the oxalate content down to around 5 mg. oxalate per half cup cooked. Otherwise, it ranges from about 9 mg. – 18 mg. oxalate, depending on the brand.

Hi, Jodi. I’m sorry to hear about your pain. I hope you can find some information to help you here also. You might also want to join the Trying Low Oxalates Facebook group. There have been a number of conversations in the last few weeks between women with IC. They might be a good resource for you.
