  1. Indeed, some foods, in particular, to avoid are those that are high in sugar, artificial sweeteners and fat. Cigarette smoking should also be avoided. Foods to limit, but not do away with entirely, are dairy products, animal proteins, grains, alcohol and coffee. These are the foods that in high quantities can turn the body acidic. Thus it is important that we know what foods are included in the alkaline diet food list.

  2. Indeed Alkaline Diet is important because all bodily functions, including respiration, digestion and metabolism, work best at particular pH levels. The general recommendation for reducing acidity by dietary means includes avoiding white bread, white sugar, refined cereals, meat, fish, canned foods, tea, coffee and condiments, while at the same time increasing the consumption of fruits and vegetables.
