An Acid VS Alkaline Diet
Our body’s internal system needs a PH of just above 7.0; our immunologic, enzymatic and repair mechanisms all function at their best in this alkaline range.
If our body becomes over acidic, i.e. under a PH of 7, you may start to experience a combination of these symptoms:
- Low energy, fatigue
- Nasal congestion
- Hives
- Muscle Pain
- Weak nails, dry skin, dry hair
- Frequent colds, flu and infection
- Headaches
If you have these symptoms and eat foods which create acid in the body, you may need to balance it with an alkaline diet.
There is a whole list of foods that cause the body to be over-acidic: dairy and dairy substitutes, animal meat, most grains, chickpeas, condiments, aspartame, prunes, chocolate, peanuts, alcohol and quite a few other types of foods.
To balance your PH, the remedy is simple and logical; eat more alkaline causing foods, like watermelon, lime, mango, most vegetables, vegetable juices, almonds, sprouts, avocados and green tea.
The benefits of an alkaline diet include:
- Rapid weight loss
- Increased energy
- The need for less sleep
- Improved skin and hair condition
- Better mental attitude

Great post, it’s interesting because different areas of our bodies have different PH levels… Our skin for example is more acidic as well as our stomach because it’s more acidic to digest food… Most people though are too acidic overall and need to eat and drink more alkaline things and get more alkaline through making sure to include the vitamins, minerals and herbs in their diet somehow whether through food or supplementation.
Great post!
Keep it up!
