Part two of my blog post on Acidic vs Alkaline foods! Here is an short video that explains acidic vs alkaline foods.
We often hear that we should have an alkaline diet but what does that mean? Our blood has a normal pH of 7.35-7.45, which is slightly alkaline. When our diet is alkaline, it helps our blood stay within a normal pH. When our diet is acidic, it promotes an acidic pH, which in turn promotes to loss of nutrients as our body tries to restore equilibrium. Acidic and alkaline foods are labeled so because of their net effect on our systemic pH.

As a Naturopathic Doctor, I am often educating my patients about their diet. One question I often come across is, why is free range meat better? This video by PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) highlights the unethical treatment of animals that are raised for food. These animals are kept in crowded, unsanitary barns with the corpses of other animals, they are abused physically. Animals kept in such conditions are constantly under stress, and this has a detrimental effect on the quality of food (meat, eggs, milk).
