Liam Hemsworth talks about his kidney stone ailment

Men’s Health Magazine interviewed Liam Hemsworth for their May issue cover story. In it, Liam spoke about his kidney stones and the journey of changing his lifestyle to prevent their recurrence.

Australian actor Liam, 32 told the outlet that this illness forced him to re-examine several aspects of his life. Therefore, he made dietetic changes and also altered his lifestyle.

Liam recalled:

“I was vegan for almost four years, and then February of last year I was feeling lethargic. Then I got a kidney stone. It was one of the most painful weeks of my life. I was doing press for Isn’t It Romantic. But I had to go to the hospital and get surgery,”

Liam and his diet changes

Liam was on a vegan diet. On an earlier occasion, he had praised the vegan diet and said:

“He found no negatives to eating like this. I feel nothing but positive, mentally and physically.”

But after he developed kidney stones needing surgery, he had to rebook his diet. He had to cut down on the consumption of vegetables.

Elaborating on the role of diet in kidney stones formation, Liam said:

“Once you get one kidney stone, you have a 50 percent chance of getting another one if you continue eating the way you were eating,”

He added:

“Well, my particular kidney stone was a calciumoxalate kidney stone. It forms from having too much oxalate in your diet. Oxalates are really high in a lot of vegetables, specifically spinach, almonds, beetroot, potatoes. Every morning, I was having five handfuls of spinach and then almond milk, almond butter, and also some vegan protein in a smoothie. And that was what I considered super healthy. So I had to completely rethink what I was putting in my body.”

Liam and his relationship with Miley Cyrus

Singer Miley Cyrus and Liam met on the sets of The Last Song in June 2009. They had an on-off type of relationship for 3 years. Later in June 2012, ultimately Liam proposed to Miley and she said Yes. But by September 2013, they called off their engagement.

But in 2016, they were spotted again and Miley confirmed that they are again engaged. On 23 December 2018, the couple wed in Nashville in Tennessee. But less than a year later on 10 August 2019, Miley announced that they have separated. The court finalized the divorce on 28 January 2020.
