Food for thought - is Almond flour worth it?

As I continue to conduct the experiment that is N=1 with myself, I am learning that almond flour has a negative effect on my digestive system.

So, what is a girl to do? A couple questions needed to be asked:

Do I really need to eat anything other than animal products? Answer - NO
Why am I cooking "treats"? Answer - trying to show people an alternative if they are just hell bent on eating ingredients other than cow, chicken, fish, or pig.
Do I want to use store bought flour instead of almond flour? Answer - NO
Am I concerned with the oxalate level in Almonds? Answer - YES, even though the process of making almond flour reduces the oxalate level, it is still there.
Is this something that is consumed daily? - NO, once every couple of weeks, at most.

Almond flour nutrition facts - 1/2 cup = 12g carbs, 2g sugar. 100g of almond flour contains ~ 34mg of oxalate.

Solutions?

Use coconut flour. Not a huge fan of coconut. (1/2 cup = 36g carbs, 12g sugar)
Use Kamut flour instead of almond flour. Add carbohydrates (1/2 cup cooked Kamut = 23.8 g carbs, 2.7g sugar) in an attempt to limit oxalate intake and having an upset stomach.

QUESTION - What will you decide to do to combat oxalates? Or do you accept it?
