4 limit the intake of whole grains.
5 limit protein to 5 to 7 servings per week.
rationale, strategy, reference, tip

Explanation:

Spinach is high in oxalates which can contribute to kidney - stone formation. High sodium intake can increase calcium excretion in urine, promoting stone formation. Organ meats are high in purines which can increase uric acid levels and contribute to stone formation. Whole grains and a moderate protein intake (5 - 7 servings per week) are not directly related to calcium phosphate kidney - stone prevention.

Answer:

1. Avoid spinach.
2. Decrease sodium intake.
3. Limit the intake of organ meats.
