In order to maintain the natural body balance
of 80% alkalinity / 20% acidity (the ratio of planet Earth) we must consume at
least 80% alkaline-ash producing foods.
Foods are listed in diminishing order of their
positive
effect (green borders)
in replacing alkaline reserves based upon a typical serving, i.e. raw spinach
at 556 per 4c is approximately 100 times more effective than green peas at 5
per 3/4c. Negative
numbers (red borders)
denote a depletion effect upon alkaline reserves.
