Alkaline diet. Alkaline diet (also known as the alkaline ash diet, alkaline acid diet, acid ash diet, and the acid alkaline diet) describes a group of loosely related diets based on the incorrect belief that certain foods can affect the acidity (pH) of the body and can therefore be used to treat or prevent disease.
However, the basis for an alkaline diet encompasses many healthy eating habits, so it can be a healthy diet change. Cutting out acid-forming foods means cutting out processed foods, like sugars and refined carbs. To increase your alkalinity, add alkaline foods to your diet, such as green vegetables, root vegetables, and almonds. Avoid acid foods, like meat, dairy, and sugar. You should also drink plenty of water and exercise.
