Q: If I found out that I have kidney stones, how should I change my lifestyle?
A: First of all, you should always be aware that preventing kidney stones depends on the type of kidney stone in question. In any case, the basic rule is to drink no less than 2 liters of water per day, by following the Mediterranean diet. This diet limits protein intake and salt but strangely enough does not limit calcium absorption (which limits the absorption of oxalate).
