Alkalize or Die
TweetHas anyone read this book or looked into balancing your acid/alkaline ratio? The book has some new age overtones but overall a good read. I think we all know the dangers associated with processed foods but even eating clean we run the risk of becoming too acidic and running into an onslaught of medical problems as a result. The medical conditions resulting from becoming too acidic range from IBS to cancer.
Some examples of alkaline foods are:
Highly alkaline:
cucumber, kale, kelp, spinach, broccoli, parsley, sprouts, almonds
Moderately alkaline:
avacodo, cabbage, celery, green beans, lettuce, raddish, tomato, lemons, limes, quinoa
Mildly alkaline:
carrots, peas, grapefruit, tofu, flax oil
Mildly acidic:
cantaloup, watermelon, rice, sunflower oil
Moderately acidic:
ketchup, mayo, apple, banana, pineapple
Highly acidic:
alcohol, fruit juice, dairy, beef, pork
The general reccomendation is to try and keep alkalizing foods around 60-70% of your diet.

TweetYou can take dark green supplements that will keep you alkaline. Stuff like chlorella and Perfect Food.

TweetI use the MetRX greens - I guess Im big on their products my gymowner powerliftin coach has a deal with them and have the whole line. I think they make the best supps on the planet. I use the protienrev3 - whey creatine combo with Waxy Maize, the greens that I mix , the joint fuel all taste incredible as well.

Re: Alkalize or Die
Tweetspirullina and chlorella work very well. As mentioned above, a good green drink can really help. I use a red drink now, mostly fruits, and then add some spirullina and chlorella tabs in small doses.
