Does unsweet tea cause kidney stones?

Bro honestly, I used to drink black tea like water thinking it's healthy. Ended up with a tiny stone last year and my doc told me black tea actually has high oxalates. Moderation is key, don't overdo it.

Beta, excess of anything is bad for the body. If you love tea, have one or two small cups, but also drink fresh coconut water and warm water with lemon. It helps flush out the system naturally.

My grandmother always said to add a splash of milk to tea to reduce its heat, and my doctor also agreed that the calcium in milk binds with oxalates. So maybe don't drink purely black unsweetened tea all the time. Better to consult your doctor once if you are prone to stones.

Oh god, I have been drinking 3 cups of unsweetened green tea daily to stay healthy. Now I'm scared, is this really a thing? Has anyone else actually developed stones just from drinking unsweetened tea?

I tried cutting out sugar completely but still got a stone because I was drinking too much strong black tea. Now I balance my tea intake and drink barley water (jau ka paani) regularly. It really helps keep the kidneys clean, practically speaking.
