Oxalate Content (Kidney Stone Risk)<br \/>\nCashews are moderately high in oxalates, which can contribute to calcium-oxalate kidney stones in susceptible people.<br \/>\nIf you\u2019ve had oxalate stones before, limit intake and drink plenty of water.<br \/>\nFor most people, this is not a concern.<br \/>\n4.
