EATING HEALTHY WITH ALKALINE FOODS

 A diet high in alkaline foods would well to improve the health of most of the people in North America. If people would only switch over to a diet of 50 - 80% veggies and fruits, we could greatly decrease the cases of diabetes, heart disease and many cancers. Today's popular diet of high meat, dairy and refined wheat consumption is not even close to being called healthy by any medical expert. Yet nearly all doctors will say more veggies and fruit should be added to your daily diet to improve overall health.


 Eating a diet high in alkaline plant food will give lots of the nourishment you need without the unneeded calories. A high nutrient/restricted calorie diet has been linked to antiaging. A great deal of these unwanted calories are found in processed foods such as refined wheat flour and refined sugar. Increasing your consumption of 100% whole grain foods will give you fiber that you need and help to efficiently deal with extra calories. Avoid refined sugar by eating more whole fruits everyday.


 A great deal of the meat and dairy that the western world consumes everyday is unnecessary as it really contributes very little to our nutritional needs. These acid foods contribute heavily to our consumption of saturated fat, which may be the main cause of heart disease. The fats that should be consumed the most are the ones that contain Omega-3 fatty acids. Animal products should be limited as the human body works best when fed a high plant food diet.

BEAT DIABETES WITH A PH BALANCED DIET

 You can be in much better health if you ate a high alkaline foods diet. Balancing your PH can be easy as simply adding more veggies and fruits to your diet. I seem to get a lot of emails that argue the point of PH balancing and if it leads to better health. Well, these people are just looking for someone to debate with and i don't give them much thought. They are looking for reasons to indulge in their favorite acidic foods. I never said that you cannot eat acidic foods, just that the majority of your daily food intake should be alkaline foods.
 How can someone not want to take part in an eating style that maximizes your health? Eating a diet high in veggies, fruits, nuts and seeds is recommended by doctors all over the world and has been proven to lower the risk of diseases such as diabetes, heart disease and many cancers. If you can make these foods 50-75% of your daily diet, you will lose drop pounds and give your body the nutrition that it needs to keep your immune system strong.

This does not mean you can't eat your favorites everyday! You can still eat about 30% of your diet as acid foods. That leaves you room for some of the meat, grains and dairy products that you grew up eating. Just keep your diet high in alkaline foods and you will achieve optimal health.
