My father recently had kidney stones, and the doctor advised him on certain foods to avoid. I'm a bit worried because I really like broccoli, but someone told me it might be bad for kidney stones. Is this true, or can I still eat it safely?

Suno boss, broccoli mein oxalates hote hain par palak jitne nahi hote. Agar tumhein calcium oxalate kidney stones ki problem hai, toh limit mein khao. Par sabse zaroori cheez hai ki pani dba ke piyo taaki pathri bane hi na.
