Comments
- Extremely informative, very very usefull.
Thank you.
- Al - THANK YOU!!! this an excellent guide and I greatly appreciate any info that will assist in increasing my ph to a level that will create an intolerable living environment for the cancer cells.
Thank you again and have a very merry Christmas. Dave Wheelwright
- Dave Wheelwright - Michael I really like your style and generosity!
I have followed your suggestions for quite some time now.
When I wake in the morning and I feel stiff I go straight back to scanning my diet from the day before and find acid food in abundance among the intake.
Thank you.
- liesl - This is what my mother taught me bless her heart. She was so right!
- Madi Creekmore - thanks this will really help me.
- peggy white - Thank you for the beautiful akaline acid chart. I wish it was something I could down load and put in my kitchen. The way it would print out would be about 15 pages so that is the only negative thing I would have to say about it. I will try to put it into a file but it would be great to be able to print it out in a shorter version.
Sincerely appreciative though, Susanna
- Susanna McGrath - Wow, I didn’t see the printable version. Thanks I can now download it. Wheee.
- Susanna McGrath - Certainly an easy color coded system and excellent to share with others who want to steer away from an acidic diet.
- dee - This chart is wonderful. My doctor had told me to avoid tomato with my acid reflux, but if they are alkaline I don’t think that is necessary. Thank you for a good start in trying to avoid acidic choices and perhaps I will sign up after the holidays.
- Marilyn Lofaro - I would like for my friends to try the alkaline foods & alkaline diet – the complete resource I think this will be the best diet guide they will ever try.

Nita Thornton
Mansfield, Ohio.
- Juanita Thornton - Wow, I see why I gained weight again. I tried the alkaline diet regime a couple of years ago and the weight just peeled off. As the new year approaches I am going to get back on tract.
- Barbara Webb - I am sure you have had this question posed before. Why does each site I visit have conflicting Alkaline list. Some state that it is the end product after digestion that counts. How do you respond to this?
- Jaye - @Jaye Often there are conflicts on alkaline lists because of the resulting “alkaline ash” after digestion is what counts. An example: lemons are obviously acidic, but after digestion they are actually alkalizing to the body.
- admin - It’s free! Thank you for your generosity, anyone else would have charged $$$ for it.
This is very very helpful. Thank you again.
- Jocelyn - Thank you soooo much! Iv’e been looking for something like this for a long time! Excellant. Can’t wait to get started.
- Linda - So amazing thankyou so much
- Bernard browne. - Thank you so much for making possible decisions of what to eat for osteopenia so much easier. Comparing this list with the migraine triggers will make it safe to eat again.
- Mary - Are you saying that my diet should be 70% alkaline foods and 30% acidic foods?
- Portia Whale - @Portia Yes, 70% alkaline to 30% acidic foods is ideal.
- admin - Uhhh…could you please move coffee to the more-alkaline side of the spectrum?
I’d like not to cut it out of my diet, and I’d feel better if you lied to me about it.
Much appreciated. Thank you.
;>(
- HillRunner - Thanks!! This is awesome information. Great Job
- Deepak Kumar BS - A timely gift! I’m predominately visual/kinesethic so ‘photo carts’ speak to me. I know these images will be a great ally when shopping and choosing food.
Wall charts would be an asset. Advertising promotions work because after repeated exposure we buy products ‘automatically.’
I trust your vision is to have this information presented in schools, hospitals and age care homes.
Are you making a ‘fun’ doco promotion? It would be good material for in-house TV programmes used in doctor/dentist/day surgery and outpatient rooms.
CONGRATULATIONS! You are a man who understands the wisdom of knowledge and abundance.

- Kenny yuen - What are the x for in the colored food chart? Thank you.
- carol - I use a dehydrator to dry excess vegetables to use for soups like onion, celery, carrot, greenbeans, spinach and butternut squash. I also dry fruits for use in winter. Are these better for you in the way of alkalinity than if I were to can them?
- Donalyn - I have just been diagnosed with acid reflux, and while doing some research I heard about alkaline foods. I’m hoping it will help me feel better. Thank you for the chart, I will print it and put it to good use.
- Ray M - Thanks a lot !
I was interested for alkaline food because I read that is so important for gender selection.
Most important in this world is to be healthy.
When you are healthy you have everything!
But I am interesting to have healthy and both gender of children .
I love them so much.
All the best ,
Vjollca
- Vjollca - I wish I had heard about this about 50 years ago! But, it’s never too late to give it a try…even at 82! Thanks for the very valuable info.
- phyllis cherault - 55 year old male severe sleep apnea 6’3″ 230lbs wish to lose 30lbs to see if I can get rid of the sleep apnea
- Bob - need to shed excess weight….n looking forward for a baby boy
- natasha - I want to know how to effectively alkalize my diet( I.e. Make my diet alkaline)
- Khushbu - Mind-boggling. You deserve all praise. Thank you very much.
- P Veera Reddy - I have already been eating most of these foods. I was just curious to see if there were some I am missing. The book Fit For Life has some of these same recipes. I am curious about grape fruit as I eat a lot of it. Also does drinking lemon water aid in removing some acidity. I appreciate your input and thank-you for the chart.
- Luise Thompson - I found your website chart very useful.I am a very lean person and want to put on weight. I am suffering from chronic osteoporosis and acute migraine problem. Can you suggest a dietary chart to overcome these problems. Thanks once again.
Monica
- monica - Hi-Your website was very informative and interesting. Would you recommend to have fruits like apple, grapes, oranges,bananas before OR after meals? Thanks so much
- Oscar - Thank you for allowing me to have this Alkaline Food Chart for free. It is lovely to know that there are still generous people around who want everyone to feel as healthy as possible without it costing them big bucks.
Glen
- Glenys Little - Thank you for the food chart. And will keep it real
- johnny mason - About 2 years ago, I had gout and really suffered with it and found that my diet was too acidic and I really need to try this diet. I am on a diet now to help my blood pressure to come down and it sounds like this would help that also!
Thanks,
Jackie
- Jackie - I would have never guessed that Lemon and Lime are Alkaline. Thanks for the chart.
- Dave - In January I was on anti-biotics, now tummy aches and trying to heal through food, alkaline, hopefully this chart will help me choose the right foods, like what do I eat for breakfast? Thank you.
- Diane Shaw - Thank you so very much,have so many problems w/ joint and muscle pain and migrains since childhood and very much tired of Drs. wanting to give pills for everything or sending you to other Drs. Believe me, could rant and rave right along with you about doctors…
Have a wonderful day
- Faye Collier - I’m looking forward to starting this “new way” of healthy energizing; I’ll give it a chance when I get your chart. Thanks so much for sharing your gift! Jane
- jane - I’m excited to get my old body back. I started exercising- lost about 35 pounds- went thru my most stressful year of my life and have developed extremely DRY DRY DRY skin and hair, painful consistent rashes and endlessly recurrent eczema. It’s been 3 years of hell- trying everything under the sun! high Acid definitely explains the timing and why the rashes keep coming back after “eliminating the potential allergens” etc. Has anyone else had dryness, rashes or eczema as a result of being too acidic? how long did it take to recover?
Hopeful in Indy!
- Cat - Many thanks for th excellent chart I am most appreciative! God bless you
- Mercedes - Thanks for this easy to use chart (7 page colored printable version too). Watching your acid/alkaline balance is pretty simple and a powerful way to impact ones health. I had an experience with gout(ow!) and self corrected it with this method and proper water consumption.
There are ion water machines available that produce alkaline water (used as medical devices in Japan) for those who have serious health problems or just want to avoid them.
I visited a kibbutz in Israel years ago and they fed us cucumbers 3 meals a day (for breakfast?), but it took me years to realize just how smart they were. Dr Tim
- Dr Timothy Heaps - The Alkaline diet appears to be something I can benefit from following. I need to lose 30 pounds and want to increase my energy level.
- Cornelius - I found your chart very interesting. I start using it the same day I found it which is about a week ago. I can actually feel the difference already. I guess this might be mind over matter as a week is too soon to see any result, but I sure hope to use it to the fullest. I wan wondering, what about some of the food that is not listed; Should I assume they are OK?
- Winston - OMG! No wonder i suffer from GERD and IBS. Not only is my refrigerator filled with acidic foods, I eat them everyday all day. This chart is not only resourceful and very helpful, it will help me to choose my foods more wisely and make a diet change. It’s gonna be hard with all the temptation of fast food and fast cooking processed foods. What has this world come to, there killing us thru our food.
- Clueless - I’m confused. Tomatoes are not alkaline. They are actually very acidic. And I thought lemons were acidic as well.
- M13 - Thanks a lot for such useful information.if I’m allowed to ask questions,I would like to know that is it good to use amaranth flakes for making flat bread?.I bought it last night & used it with whole wheat flour.
- alia - Thank you for such a comprehensive list.
Thanks a million.
