Can you please elaborate? I am 33, still getting those, precisely 12-18 months apart. Left and right kidneys. My father has them too. I changed my lifestyle a bit - gettnig mode vitamin d3 + vitamin k2 - supposedly that way you get the calcium where it is supposed to be - in the bones and not in the kidneys. I am pretty clean now, maybe for the first time in my life - regular check did not show any stones. But interested in finding what exactly do you mean by over-efficient. edits: Changed my age. Can't believe I was thinking 32, when I am 33 in fact. Duh.

Someone I know swears by rowatinex https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/1431192

I pray that I won’t ever need to consider taking it though (passed one stone last year)

I take this one as well. Makes you pee more often and has a good effect on me in general! Thanks for sharing.
Sorry, I missed this - Quite simply my kidneys filter more than they're meant to, it's hereditary, as you've discovered. I've found that a cup of stone breaker tea once or twice a week keeps them at bay so that's well worth looking into. Look it up on Amazon.
