  This is myth, Ca actually can reduce kidney stones while Na increases the probability they will develop. Ca could have negative cardiac effects above 1200mg per day though. https://www.niddk.nih.gov/health-information/urologic-diseases/kidney-stones/eating-diet-nutrition https://www.niddk.nih.gov/health-information/urologic-diseas...
