16. Hydration and oxalate excretion

Drinking water can help prevent kidney stones because it dilutes the urine, helping to flush out the substances that lead to stones. Generally, you should try to drink two to three liters of water a day or whatever you need to pass two liters of urine every day. The easiest way to determine if you are drinking enough water is to look at your urine. It should be clear and pale yellow.
