This study confirms that taro leaves should be included in the
high oxalate food group and should be avoided by people who have
an increased risk of calcium oxalate stone formation, or low
calcium intake. Baked taro leaves will supply a significant amount
of oxalate in the diet if they are eaten regularly. Baking taro leaves
effectively concentrates the oxalate content of the cooked dish.
Another option for at risk groups could be to consume cooked taro
leaves with cows milk or coconut milk as this decreases the
amount of soluble oxalates that would be available for absorption
in the small intestine but this option does not completely eliminate
the soluble oxalate content of the mixtures.
