Acid and Alkaline-Forming Foods - Home Based NOW: at inOVERyourHead.com
A Free CHART for your refrigerator to stay healthy thoughout the week.
A basic rule of thumb to follow to achieve and maintain pH balance is to eat 80% alkaline-forming foods and drinks and 20% acid-forming foods an drinks each day. Have acid reflux disease?
If a pH test indicates that your body is too acidic, you should eat more alkaline-forming foods and omit acid-forming foods from your diet until another pH test shows you have returned to normal. Conversely, if your body is too alkaline, eat more acid-forming foods and omit alkaline-forming foods.
Use the list below as a guide to which foods are acid-forming
and which are alkaline-forming. Low level acid-forming and
low-level alkaline-forming foods are alomst neutral.
pH test strips, litmus paper may also be called nitrazine paper. It can be purchased at most local pharmacies. If your local pharmacy does not carry it or urine strips for pH, check on the internet or with a medical  supply company (listed under Medical Equipment, Supplies and Repair, etc., in the yellow pages) or even a hospital pharmacy.
