Pretty sure if your choice comes down to weighing the secondary effects of spinach vs viagra, you'd still want to choose the spinach.
The identified and unidentified side effects of most pharmaceuticals, and viagra in particular, are far more concerning than whatever may shake out of a plausibly realistic increase in dietary oxalates.
That's not to say one can't or shouldn't make a reasonable choice to take viagra, but the oxalates in spinach shouldn't be a very relevant factor in one's decision-making.
- cableshaft 3y agoI'm only arguing against going hard into eating Spinach without being aware of the possible risks. A lot of times people make an assumption that because something is a natural it can't really hurt them and they don't have to be careful how much of it they consume (like the Grapefruit diet or whatever) and go overboard with it. Personally I eat a decent amount of spinach myself, although I don't go super crazy with it, but someone with a history of kidney stones or low calcium or magnesium might not want to, or might want to at least take some steps to reduce the oxalates before eating it.
