Better health thanks to an alkaline diet?
An alkaline-rich diet promotes consuming fresh, unprocessed foods with abundant fruit and vegetables. This leads to increased intake of essential nutrients and antioxidants, positively affecting health. However, scientific evidence does not support the idea that diseases can be prevented or cured by an alkaline-rich diet alone. The body maintains its pH value regardless of acid or alkaline intake in the diet. Many test subjects have confirmed a positive effect on health thanks to an alkaline diet. It is recommended to include alkaline-rich foods in the diet and to reduce the consumption of acid-forming foods in diets. A good approach is to favour whole grain products, healthy fats, vegetable proteins and various fruits and vegetables. Gently produced wholemeal corn products are gluten-free and preferable to wholemeal at best.
