*The body needs to be in balance, not just eating 100% alkaline foods. For a healthy body you will need to eat 60% alkaline and 40% acidic foods. For a body in need of repair, eat 80% alkaline and 20% acidic as would be the case for cancer and other life threatening diseases.
There are three different types of alkaline foods: high alkaline, alkaline and low alkaline. The high alkaline is the food with the least sugar and the lowest glycemic level. Although all three are alkaline, the low alkaline is borderline on being acidic and should be limited.
