Are You Eating Enough Alkaline Foods?

This chart shows the contribution of various food substances to the acidifying of body fluids. In general, it is important to eat a diet that contains foods from both sides of the chart. Allergic reactions and other forms of stress tend to produce acids in the body. The presence of high acidity indicates that more of your foods should be selected from the alkalizing group.

We hope you will find this chart helpful on your journey to better health. If total vibrant health is your goal, your best investment is a telephone call to one of our knowledgeable distributors.
