My 16-month old daughter was just diagnosed as having calcium oxalate crystals in her urine (and trace blood) (no infection). We're going to see a pediatric urologist as the pediatricial is concerned about kidney stones, but in the meantime I'm trying to research the issue. I would welcome any suggestions/ideas for how to treat this. She eats a very healthy diet - breast milk, lots of good fats, meats, fish, some veggies and fruit, nut butters, lots of bone stock, raw milk & yogurt, little bit of grains (whole/soaked). Some sources seem to say that too much protein can cause kidney stones, other sources blame it on oxalate in foods. I'm wondering if a dietary change would help her.  Also, are there any herbs that would be safe for her to drink to remove/dissolve the crystals?
