First off, the Alkaline Diet is an eating plan that claims to help you drop pounds, while avoiding health problems such as cancer and arthritis. When followed correctly, your bloodâs pH should remain steady or balanced. It calls for the avoidance of processed foods, caffeine, wheat, dairy, meat and eggs. The foods you can eat include legumes, tofu, soybeans, seeds, nuts and most fruits and vegetables. The Alkaline Diet dates back to the 19th century and has changed to some degree to suit different needs.
Most fruits and vegetables, soybeans and tofu, and some nuts, seeds, and legumes are alkaline-promoting foods, so they're fair game. Dairy, eggs, meat, most grains, and processed foods, like canned and packaged snacks and convenience foods, fall on the acid side and are not allowed. Most books that tout the alkaline diet say you shouldn't have alcohol or caffeine, either.
