Your pH balance is inextricably tied to one factor – your choices. Everything hinges on this balance including your health, longevity, and even propensity for disease. Easy ways to make better choices every day include:
Choose white meat, seafood, or a meat substitute over red meat.
Rather than rolls or fries, choose yeast-free bread or wild rice.
Rather than cow’s milk, drink soy or almond milk.
Create meals around vegetables, rather than meat or starches.
Exchange alcoholic beverages for sparkling water.
Fill your plate with plant foods first, leaving little room for acid-forming options.
Choose veggies with dip or grilled fruit over prepackaged snacks.
Cook with cold-pressed olive oil, not saturated fats or butter.
Avoid hidden acids by requesting dressings, condiments, and sauces on the side.
Choose a 30-minute walk over a 30-minute TV sitcom.
Reduce stress. Take up meditation, yoga, or some other relaxing method to restore peace.
