That’s because milk is a great hydrator and you probably drink enough water on top, try doing straight calcium and not enough water

I drink so much milk constantly throughout the days, almost never anything else, and haven’t had this issue. I think you’ve gotta be predisposed to it as well.

Imagine you replace half your milk with a TUMS or other antacid, that’s basically what they mean. Plenty of water in milk

Dietary calcium is great for preventing stones, actually. Calcium is bound to a couple different things that cause stones, but the body actually makes those things specifically to bind with calcium. When it happens where it is supposed to, this is a good thing. If you are low on calcium, these things get flushed, and may get trapped in the kidney. Then any calcium that passes through may bind to it. Having higher calcium intake helps prevent them from building up in the kidneys to begin with. Though extremely high amounts of calcium from vitamin supplements etc can increase the risk of getting stones, but high calcium diet is one of the best defenses against them.

Holy crap this is both so seemingly counter-intuitive, and awesome at the same time.
