Amp probe meters are very easy to use, and you do not need to be an electrician in order to use one correctly. Depending on the type of current and wire you are testing, you will need to set the amp probe to a 0-10 or 0-20 amp scale. A local electrician could advise you about setting your amp probe meter.
However, the basis for an alkaline diet encompasses many healthy eating habits, so it can be a healthy diet change. Cutting out acid-forming foods means cutting out processed foods, like sugars and refined carbs. To increase your alkalinity, add alkaline foods to your diet, such as green vegetables, root vegetables, and almonds. Avoid acid foods, like meat, dairy, and sugar. You should also drink plenty of water and exercise.
Foods that are alkaline are organic greens, healthy fats, whole grains, salads, green smoothies and juices, and raw nuts and seeds. Foods that are acidic are sugar, processed foods, gluten, dairy, meat, carbonated water and caffeine, alcohol, and high-sugar fruits. The alkaline diet is not about deprivation, but moderation. Your goal should be a nice balance of 80 percent alkaline-forming foods and no more than 20 percent acid-forming foods. Fueling your body with alkaline-rich foods and decreasing your acid intake will naturally balance and regulate your pH levels so your body doesn't have to do all the work in regulating it on its own.
