Strawberries are actually high in oxalates...they are one of the highest oxalate fruits.
Oxalates are naturally occurring in all plant foods (vegetables, fruits), as well as dark beers, soy and other foods.
Did your doctor give you a list of high, medium and low oxalate foods, with the amount of oxalates per serving that you should be consuming?
If there is ever a doubt with conflicting information...always follow your doctors recommendations, or better yet...ask your doctor for clarification if you repeatedly see information (from credible sources) that provide contrary information. Speaking of misinformation: where did you see on the EmpowHER site that strawberries were a good food in a low-oxalate diet?
Do you have any other questions? Did your doctor provide you with written resources, or a referral to a Registered Dietitian (R.D.)?
