Hmm, I'm not sure that high oxalate foods are a problem. Are you sure it isn't low purines that youu want?

Ellie did well on Dr. Dodds diet but I replaced the fish with egg and her nutritinoist said it wasn't balanced. If you want really low purines, then fish would have to be avoided but that may not be necessary. Homemade recipes for severe liver issues are hard to get right. Depending on the liver problem, extremely low protein may not be needed but the right kind of protein needs to be given.

Why not just stick to the canned L/D or RC LS 14?
