Alkaline diets—that is, eating foods low in acid in order to keep your pH reading neutral or alkaline—have a growing legion of celebrity fans: Kelly Ripa, Victoria Beckham, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Jennifer Aniston reportedly follow it. As you age, your acid levels tend to rise, which can leave you bloated, sluggish, and uncomfortable. High alkaline diets lower inflammation and can help reduce pain and disease. Losing weight is an added plus. This book offers more than 75 recipes for juices, smoothies, soups, and more, including:
