If you are about to begin an alkaline diet, approximately 80 percent of your meals should consist of alkaline foods.
The 20% left can be made up of acidic foods.
A food’s PRAL score, or potential renal acid load, determines whether it’s defined as alkaline or acidic. A positive PRAL indicates a food is acidic.
These include grains, dairy products, meat, poultry and seafood. Foods with a negative PRAL are alkaline and include most plant-based products.
A scientific review published in the “Journal of Environmental and Public Health” in 2012 suggests that a diet based heavily on alkaline foods can benefit your health, but more research is needed.
Your top 10 best choices for highly alkaline foods could be parsley, basil, dill weed, dried apricots, dehydrated bananas, beet greens, Swiss chard, spinach, coffee and wine.
