Ummon:
Not enough water....or maybe too much beer. Probably both.

Beer = good.  Flushes the kidneys.  Less buildup.  Still gotta drink water with it, tho, to prevent dehydration (and hangovers.)

So sayeth the urologist I see.  I like him.

Depends on the stone type.  Mine are oxalate.  I'm supposed to avoid tea and dark green veggies.

I can live with no brussels sprouts, but its a tough cross to bear. :)

I would be devastated by instruction to cut either of those from my diet.

Ummon:
As beer has sulfites in it, I would think it might contribute to stones. Also, any kind of buzz equals some form of dehydration. That's why I tend to only drink one in a session...well, and because I drink it for flavor, so's one is all I need. Of course, I do have the added advantage of a session occuring maybe once or twice a month. Tea I can't remember that last time I had - and obviously it wasn't Long Island Ice Tea.
