Calcification clusters and diet high in oxalate?

Options

Has anyone with calcification clusters considered a low calcium oxalate diet? I read that calcification clusters are made up of calcium oxalate. Supposedly, ones calcium intake has nothing to do with these calcium deposits in our breast tissue but I wonder if avoiding high oxalate foods would reduce the buildup. Here's a list of foods high in calcium oxalate. I'll be removing these from my diet.

    The calcifications are not the problem. It is the underlying condition of what made them form. The calcifications themselves are entirely benign.

    I agree with Melissa. From all I have read, it has nothing at all to do with dietary calcium (which is what I thought early on when I first heard micro-calcification) but rather to do with the debris from malignant cells.
