Use these alkaline-acid food charts as a general guide, and don’t worry if one chart is slightly different from another. The small differences in degree ultimately won’t make a huge difference. What will make the biggest difference is replacing processed foods with fresh foods, and adding more fruits and vegetables to your diet.
