Alkaline is GOOD

What do you think is Alkaline?
Remember in high school, those boring classes in chemistry about Ph, yes that is the one, same meaning, Alkaline simply means something with a Ph higher then 7. Anything below 7 will be acidic and 7 is neutral.
Our body's Ph is normally at 7,385, bellow that our body becomes acidic that is when we start getting sick and hosting all kinds of diseases. To have and keep our body healthy our Ph has to be alkaline, optimum functionality is achieved when alkaline.
The trick here is how do we get our body to maintain it's healthy alkaline Ph?
Simple, EATING HEALTHY FOOD is the key.
I found online a list of food and how they affect our Ph.
