Tomatoes are not the culprit for getting kidney stones!

Most often, I heard it; tomatoes are not good for those people who are suffering kidney stone. Even I had an impression that tomatoes can create kidney stone. Some people says that the seeds in the tomatoes form as stones in kidney. So it is good to remove the seeds before eating tomatoes. So far I have no such problem but whenever I cut tomatoes I always get a feelings that whether eating this will cause kidney stone. However, I just ignore that feeling and make my curry. Today I watched a video which is posted by a doctor. He explained people are used to believe tomatoes are the reason for kidney stone. He said, that is not right, some oxalate crystals are contained in tomatoes but this is found in leafy vegetables and other vegetables as well. Usually this content will get rejected by our body itself. When it troubles, if you do not drink enough water then it (this crystals) will form as a stone in kidney then create troubles. (If it forms then it will be sharp and cause much pain) So we have to make sure that drink enough water for our body. Then how much water we must drink on daily basis, according to this doctor, we have to pass out 2.5 Liters of urine per day. So we must drink water accordingly. To be very frank tomatoes are part of my daily food. It contains many vitamins and good for us actually. The only think we have to drink sufficient water every day. Do you like tomatoes?
