Alkaline foods are those that have a pH level above 7.0, which means they are less acidic and more basic. Eating alkaline foods can help balance the body's pH levels, which can have a positive impact on overall health.

Alkaline foods

Some examples of alkaline foods include:

  • Leafy greens like kale, spinach, and collard greens
  • Cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, and Brussels sprouts
  • Fruits like apples, bananas, and grapes
  • Nuts and seeds like almonds, chia seeds, and pumpkin seeds
  • Legumes like beans, lentils, and chickpeas

While some of these foods are high in carbohydrates, they are nutrient-dense and can be included as part of a healthy diet in moderation.
