The Guide to Foods That Control Your Body's Acidity

Is your diet acidifying? Is your urine pH regularly low? If so, as you age, you are at increased risk of chronic acidosis which can lead to:
– osteoporosis
– muscle loss
- kidney stones
– premature aging
– hypertension
- obesity
The key to restoring acid-base balance: diet

The Acid-Base Balance Guide is the reference for understanding what acid-base balance is, its major consequences on health and how to choose your foods to restore it. For this, you have at your fingertips the acidifying or basifying potential (PRAL index) of nearly 900 foods and prepared dishes. In the blink of an eye you will be able to identify those which are most favorable to your health and those which should be limited.
You will also learn – and this is a first – to compose an almost ideal basifying menu.

New in this revised and expanded edition:
– For each food category, the top 5 most acidifying foods (or failing that the least acidifying foods)
– The food pyramid of acid-base balance that will guide you towards optimal health
– Clear answers to preconceived ideas about acidity and acidosis, and to the questions you ask yourself such as “is lemon acidifying or alkalizing?”
