Portulaca oleracea actually grows in rural areas and is a kind of wild vegetable in rural areas. After all, it is not a vegetable that we eat every day, so if we eat purslane in excess, it is likely that oxalic acid will accumulate in the body in a short time. Then, some people will ask, will purslane get stones if you eat too much? What happens when purslane is eaten too much?

We should know that the main cause of stone formation is related to the metabolism and anatomy of urinary system and the shape of fallopian tube, and the formation of stone is caused by many factors, not a certain component or several components, so it does not mean that eating more purslane will lead to the formation of stone, which does not establish an absolute causal relationship. Although one of the main components of calculus is calcium oxalate calculus, we can't generalize purslane just because it has this component and deny its other nutritional value, so we can't generalize whether purslane will get calculus if it eats too much.

Purslane is eaten too much, and people who belong to spleen and stomach deficiency and cold will aggravate the cold in the body. If it is serious, it will cause damage to the spleen and stomach, which will easily stimulate the stomach and cause symptoms such as abdominal pain and diarrhea. In addition, if patients with frequent urination eat purslane too much, it will increase the amount of urination, increase the burden on the kidneys, and even affect the normal water metabolism function of the body.

So here is a warm reminder, purslane is rich in oxalic acid, don't eat too much; Second, blanching purslane before eating can reduce the oxalic acid content; The formation of the third stone is caused by many factors, not to say that eating purslane will lead to stones.
