The Acid-Alkaline Food Guide: A Quick Reference to Foods & Their Effect on pH Levels Overview

Over the last five years, there has been an explosion of bestselling acid/alkaline based diets. These have ranged from weight loss to diabetes management. While hundreds of thousands of people have gone on this diet that balances the pH level of your body, they have had to put up with the limited food guides contained in each book. Now, health experts Dr. Susan Brown and Larry Trivieri have created a complete resource for people wanting to widen their food choices. The Acid/Alkaline Food Guide offers dieters an easy-to-follow guide to the most common foods that influence your body’s pH levels.

The book begins by explaining what the acid/alkaline of your body has to do with the acid/alkaline influence of foods. It then explains how the pH of foods, once eaten, may change in your body—as citric acid fruits, once digested, become alkaline. As complicated as this process is, the authors provide the guidelines for the analysis of the foods covered in the book. This section is then followed by a listing of thousands of foods and their acid/alkaline ranges. Included are insets and groups that can help the reader better direct their food searches.

This is the first complete acid/alkaline food guide to include today’s modern diet. It will quickly become the first resource to turn to when preparing meals or ordering food.

Customer Reviews

If you learn about the acid-base balance in a hurry, and if you want to search for the effect of certain foods on the body, this book is for you. It explains the theory very briefly but completely. References to works of the pioneers and how the authors results are reported in table food, he won. The table of food is very complete.

I have two caveats with this book:

- First, pH measurements recommendation. They recommendBefore testing the morning after he went into the bathroom for a certain number of hours. I do not think this is the best method because your urine is then all the acids have accumulated from the night. Rather, the method recommended by Christopher Vasey go.

- Secondly, the food table. It is likely, as I realize that some discrepancies with results that are presented by other authors, or that you can find on the Internet. This does not mean that the table iswrong, but be careful: Not all foods have the same effect on everyone, depending on their metabolism. Christopher Vasey explains very well in his book "The acid-alkaline diet for optimum health," that I, in conjunction with this to read (and recommends that, I think, was his mistake, but the two books read together a good basis or not).
