Oxalicum Acidum is an acid that is found in vegetables. Parsley and soya contain it, but in small quantities. On the other hand, its presence is more important in sorrel or rhubarb where it exists in the form of calcium oxalate or potassium. The latter is an insoluble salt that cannot be absorbed by the intestinal mucosa. As a result, its existence in the body can cause kidney stones.
