In the article of Dr. Gary C. Curhan, published in Archives of Internal Medicine, argues that in women and men of advanced age eating foods rich in calcium and potassium in combination with a sufficient amount of fluid can slow the formation of kidney stones.

While the use of supplements containing calcium, sodium, sucrose and animal proteins increases the risk of stone formation in older women (this phenomenon is not observed in young women).

It has also been established that the phytins of legumes and cereals can inhibit the formation of calcium oxalate crystals in the kidneys and are a useful (and sufficiently safe) addition to conventional measures for the prevention of stone formation in the kidneys.
