The Acid-Alkaline Myth

HomeRael > Rael’s comments

RAEL’S COMMENT:
One of the best sites explaining why the acidic/alkaline diet is a myth .Another problem for vegetarians or vegans.

Many of you have probably heard of the “alkaline diet.” There are a few different versions of the acid-alkaline theory circulating the internet, but the basic claim is that the foods we eat leave behind an “ash” after they are metabolized, and this ash can be acid or alkaline (alkaline meaning more basic on the pH scale).

According to the theory, it is in our best interest to make sure we eat more alkaline foods than acid foods, so that we end up with an overall alkaline load on our body. This will supposedly protect us from the diseases of modern civilization, whereas eating a diet with a net acid load will make us vulnerable to everything from cancer to osteoporosis. To make sure we stay alkaline, they recommend keeping track of urine or saliva pH using pH test strips.

In this two-part series, I will address the main claims made by proponents of the alkaline diet, and will hopefully clear up some confusion about what it all means for your health.
