Raw Chef Elaina Love discusses alkaline vs acidic foods. feralfoods.org nuts digest better with greens! try this: something i do to reduce nut consumption and increase greens is with this snack –i’ll get some baby spinach and nuts, rolling each nut into one baby spinach leaf like a burrito. of course, soak the nuts (over night) and let them dry or dehydrate them (2-3 days). to make the nuts more spicy, add some nama shoyu or raw tamari to the soaking water, like 25-30% shoyu to 75-80% water usually works, but of course, spice to taste. enjoy! chris, feralfoods.org

Eating for your bloodtype is true.
I drank tons of milk when I was young and no prob I was thin and muscular. I stopped drinking milk and ate burgers. The buns gave me diabetes. For me… milk is the perfect food. For you.. maybe not.
I have abbreviated but I’ve been thru every diet. Every person has different foods that are best for them. If your pancreas has to constantly adjust your PH then it may get overworked. I should probably stick to alkaline food because my body is acidic.

I have a deviated septum. I tend not to breathe enough. I have become very capable in an anaerobic environment.
My body adapted. I make more ATP then most in an anaerobic enviro.
Going from a heavy carb diet to a heavy protein diet and vice versa hurts temporarily. We are omnivores. Sometimes ppl 4get.

@BellaaMarlene From what I understand, acid fruits do not necessarily mean they will make your body acid. They have an alkalizing effect on the body, despite being acidic fruits. Take care and best of health to you.

your retarded. even fruit is acidic (most of them). so they must be thrown out the trash too right? i wonder whats left to eat. dirt i suppose, or better yet…BREATHARIANSIM. did you never hear of “alkalosis”—if your optimal alkaline foods even have to power to do that?

@ScaryCannibalTrout1 lmao!!!
August 1st, 2010 at 2:07 pm
did you guys know that milk is actually alkalizing
August 1st, 2010 at 2:39 pm
One of the ways our body compensates for acidic blood is to breath more air. The opposite is also true. If the blood is too alkaline, our breathing will slow down, retaining the carbon dioxide. How we breath during various quantities of exercise will have an effect on our blood balance because of its relationship to carbon dioxide. Though I wouldn’t be want to breath smog, so I get your point.

Breathing air is not acid forming.

Wow this girl has found the cure for the common cold..She will surly be awarded the Nobel Prize!
Its nice we have a Pancreas that regulates our ph. So we don’t have to worry about it.
Greens are good for you ofcourse.

Good thing we have a ” pancreas” that regulates our ph ;
So it doesn’t mater if we eat alkaline or acidic foods.

Not all obese eat more
· Not all vegetarians look youthful
· Not all sick eat nonsense
· Not all alcoholics are diseased
· Not all smokers are affected by cancer
· Not all bad eaters suffer from ageing
Do you still think “We are what we eat”?

Please watch my videos also

I like the frogs singing in the background. Don’t eat a raw frog though. You’ll get sick.

when you say eat green do you mean green or greens as greens can be greenier than green in a greeny kind of way, i wonder if its worth moving to Greenland,i could listen to Greenday on the way, very informitive vid, greenbye.5stars (green ones)

shouldnt a regular diet be around 7.4 then in ph and not just pure alkaline.
August 1st, 2010 at 6:34 pm
I started an alkaline diet 3 days ago, its about 50% alkaline diet so its a gradual change. I feel better already, especially in the mornings. The problem is i think i’m gonna lose weight if i keep up this diet too much and i’m already thin.
August 1st, 2010 at 6:48 pm
I need to alkaline myself right now, It’s an emergency, I need quinoa and millet and avocado right now!!!!!! ah!!!!!!
August 1st, 2010 at 7:27 pm
word!
August 1st, 2010 at 8:02 pm
WORD
August 1st, 2010 at 8:25 pm
quinoa may be THE hesalthiest food as well…..you cant go raw without eating grains, and they have to be DIGESTABLE to be absorbed , right?
only makes sense! Yup
August 1st, 2010 at 8:31 pm
You can sprout grains… as she said in the video quiona and millet are alkaline when sprouted.
August 1st, 2010 at 9:00 pm
she specifically says which grains, and gives the reasons that they are basic (alkaline) and that the quinoa and buckwheat can be sprouted and eaten raw. what is weird about a raw chef promoting healthy raw, sprouted grains?
