Top 7 Alkalizing Foods
#1 Lemons - Lemons are one of the most alkalizing foods. I start my morning off with a tall glass of warm Lemon, Cayenne, Ginger detox water. This gets the inners moving. 
#2 Leafy Greens - These are the big boys! Swiss Chard, Kale, turnip greens and spinach are great Alkalizing Foods. Prepare a big salad and you are good to go!
#3 Cucumbers and Celery - These are Alkalizing foods that we all have in the fridge. They aid in digestion and are practically calorie free.
#4 Root Vegetables - Rutabaga, radishes, beets, horseradish, carrots and turnips are another group of Alkalizing Foods.
Alkalizing Foods
Not a big salad eater? Make some Skinny Baked Spinach Chips
#5 - Garlic - Another Alkalizing Food that you probably have in the fridge. Garlic is straight up all around good for you as it is.
#6 - Cruciferous Vegetables - Cabbage, Brussel Sprouts and Cauliflower are all highly Alkalizing Foods. These foods neutralize acids and help with digestion. Eat them raw, with some dip or add them into a salad.
#7 - Avocados one of my favorite Alkalizing Foods. Avocados have those good fats that we want in our diet. Lots of good amino acids and essential vitamins.
I love salad, avocados, and most of this list!
I’d like to try those spicy spinach chips. I like salads a lot too!
I never knew there was a good “health” reason to have lemon in your water, I always just assumed people did it to make the water taste better!
Me too, for years. My husband started getting really interested in Alkalizing the water we drink when we were on the farm. That is when we started researching Alkalizing foods, love the lemon water
Lemon surprises me, because it is used as an acid in cooking. I must be pretty alkalized. These are a lot of my fave foods.
Those are all of our favorite veggies … yay for us!
Just knowing that I incorporate so many of these in my diet on a regular basis makes me feel great. I’d like to work on eating even MORE leafy greens though.
I love all these veggies! And I want to try the lemon water with cayenne and ginger.
Very interesting. I love lemon and ginger, but don’t know about the cayenne.
such wonderful tips. What does alkalizing your body do for you. I love lemon water but had no idea bout the other ingredients
When your body is acidic it does not function inside the way it should. Which can breed disease and sickness, not to get technical. When it is Alkaline your body thrives disease can not live here. So when toxins are removed your body can flush fat, gain muscle, beautify your skin and give us energy.
We eat and grow almost all of those veggies! I love lemon water and Kale chips,I’ve never had spinach chips those sound good!
I could eat avocado’s all day long!!
This is a really good list of alkalizing foods to eat. My favorites are kale, lemons, garlic, and avocado.
I would go with lemons and avocados from your list.
I probably don’t get enough of any of these in my diet. Will have to change that.
I’m definitely going to try that detox and adding more leafy vegetables.
I’ve heard of the lemon detox but haven’t tried it personally. I’m also glad to see avocados on the list - love ’em
I love a lot of the foods on this list- time to stock up!
I’m actively trying to get more veggies in my diet.
I love Brad’s Raw Crunchy Kale, but the Baked Spicy Spinach Chips sound more budget-friendly! 😉

I didn’t realize until talking to my mom about this how important including alkalizing foods in our diets was. It is incredible how we can balance our pH through our diet to improve our overall health. Our bodies are wonderful things.
My friend did that Holiday Detox. It worked great for her!
I love most of those items but I’m the only one in the family that does. I need to start serving them more though and hope that my family eats it.
Mmmm a good salad sounds amazing right now. That spicy spinach chips sound good. Never had anything like it!
