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.
The theory is that some foods, like meat, wheat, refined sugar, and processed foods, cause your body to produce acid, which is bad for you. Eating specific foods that make your body more alkaline, on the other hand, can protect against those conditions as well as shed pounds.our stomach is very acidic, with a pH of 3.5 or below, so it can break down food. And your urine changes, depending on what you eat -- that's how your body keeps the level in your blood steady. The alkaline diet claims to help your body maintain its blood pH level.
