Oxalates
Rhubarb contains high levels of soluble oxalates (e.g., potassium oxalate), which can trigger allergic-like reactions or kidney stones in sensitive individuals. Symptoms may include itching, swelling, or gastrointestinal distress. Rare but severe cases may involve systemic effects. Not a true IgE-mediated allergy but often clinically relevant.
