| Evidence Level | limited |
Oxalis pes‑caprae, also known as beach spinach, is a low‑growth, herbaceous perennial with heart‑shaped green leaves and small pale yellow flowers. Its leaves and stems are commonly used to make a mild tea that helps relieve constipation, soothe sore throats, and act as a natural cooling tonic. Because the plant contains oxalic acid, large amounts can irritate the gut and may contribute to kidney stones, so those with kidney issues or a history of oxalate stones should consume it sparingly.
