Foods balance the body and are considered either acid or alkaline depending on their reaction to the digestive process.   The acid/alkaline balance is important to health.

Scientists know that disease flourishes in an acid environment. 

We have many food choices in America. Unfortunately, the choices we make contribute to a high rate of acid body chemistry and leads to disease.

We are told to eat lots of fruits and vegetables and to avoid eating processed foods. 

Fruits and vegetables produce an alkaline environment in the body.   

Alkaline foods help maintain a body chemistry which leads to prevention and optimal health.

Acid producing foods lead to many of the diseases plaguing our society.

Cells in the body start to die when the blood becomes  acidic. Cancer cells survive and grow in an acid condition and feed off the waste of normal cells.

A diet providing the best protection from inflammation, early aging and disease should have a ratio of four parts alkaline to 1 part acid.  Eating lots of fruits and veggies is vital.

Here are some of the foods that produce acid: animal products…red meat, dairy products, sugar, white flour, processed, refined and fast foods; deep fried foods, chocolate , artificial sweeteners, alcohol, and food additives.

This is only a partial list.  Here are other considerations that produce an acid environment:  medications, drugs, emotional upsets and stress. 

Foods that produce an alkaline blood chemistry: Most fruits and vegetables, some raw nuts and most seeds. Sprouted grains and sprouted legumes. 

How are you doing?  If you are eating the standard American diet, there is much room for improvement. 

Improve the diet, cut the disease rate and improve the quality of life.
