Here is the oxalate diet. I actually meant to say black-eyed peas, not black beans:

Black-Eyed Peas and Rice Diet
2/3 cup black-eyed peas, boiled
2 cups brown rice, long-grain, cooked
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 bonemeal tablets
1/4 tablespoon KCl
1 multiple vitamin tablet
1/10 teaspoon table salt
Provides 696 kilocalories, 19.3 grams protein, 17.8 grams fat. Provides calcium at 55%, phosphorus at 102%, sodium at 33%, vitamin D at 63% of requirements

She is also taking Denosyl hepatosupport supplement (SAM-e). The black-eyed peas diet appears to be protein-reduced by percentage of mass . . . since Lacy has no symptoms, I've read she should be given as much vegetable or dairy protein as she tolerates without reducing it. According to a nutrition websites, black-eyed peas have about half the protein content per serving of cottage cheese. Is the protein in this recipe enough, or should we try to combine the two--maybe add a quarter cup of cottage cheese?

I "think" it's supposed to be 2-3 grams of protein per day per kg of body weight but don't quote me. I don't normally go by grams. I go by the guaranteed analysis/protein percentage which isn't posted.

Is she on milk thistle? Maybe Azodyl? Omegas and vitamin e?
