0:00 – intro
1:12 – overview of endogenous vs. exogenous oxalates
5:46 – how much oxalate comes from endogenous production vs. diet
9:14 – when endogenous oxalate production matters more than dietary oxalate
15:03 – rare genetic disorders that cause excessive oxalate production: primary hyperoxaluria
22:36 – the pathways in the liver that lead to oxalate production
32:41 – other biochemical pathways involved in endogenous oxalate production
41:19 – deranged metabolic function as a primary driver of glyoxal production and lipid peroxidation
45:14 – the extent to which glycine and vitamin C contribute to endogenous oxalate formation
48:00 – how much does hydroxyproline contribute to oxalate production?
52:06 – the primary precursor to oxalate that’s often ignored (glyoxal)
55:08 – how oxidative stress drives oxalate production and how antioxidants help
1:01:20 – what causes the high oxalate levels seen in type 2 diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)?
1:11:16 – the protective effects of glycine in states of excess oxalate production
1:15:54 – elevated stress hormones and gluconeogenesis increase oxalate production
1:22:43 – nutrient deficiencies that contribute to oxalate issues (vitamin B1, vitamin B6, and zinc)
