Abstract

A number of environmental factors are under discussion as possibly implicated in the etiology of RCU. On the basis of data in the literature and our own results, we attempted a critical weighting up of the possible contributions of climate, pollution, stress, nutrition in general and especially oxalate and minerals in the nutrition. It was concluded that there is a need for more in-depth research into the response of the body to challenges from the environment, in particular nutrition.
