If you live anywhere that’s been cold lately, wouldn’t you love to be in Hawaii right about now? I know for those of us on the East coast, a tropical day is sounding perfect as winter wears on.
While this smoothie won’t magically transport you to a tropical paradise, it’s the next best thing. It has ginger, grapefruit, and coconut flavors, plus 3 different alkaline veggies.
If you ever get tired of the same tropical smoothies, this is a delicious and nutritious way to mix it up a bit.
So give it a try and let me know what you think over on Facebook.
Similar to chia seed pudding or overnight oats, buckwheat and quinoa porridges are also great alkaline breakfast foods. Another meal that can be made for a slow or speedy morning, buckwheat and quinoa porridges are nutrient dense and delicious.
Your best bet is a nice cup of hot tea. Boiled water is alkaline and so are most teas. Plus, tea has a slew of killer health benefits. A glass of warm milk can also do the trick.
Interestingly, even though lemons, limes, and tomatoes are all high-acid fruits, they actually help to make your body more alkaline. So even a cup of warm water with a squeeze of lemon first thing in the morning is an easy but effective way to manage your pH levels.
Some of the pillars of an alkaline diet are foods we know to be solid staples of a healthy diet: Fruits and unsweetened fruit juice. Grains like wild rice, oats and quinoa.
Most fruits and vegetables, soybean, tofu, and some nuts, seeds, and legumes are alkaline-promoting foods, so they're fair game. Dairy, eggs, meat, most grains, and processed foods like canned and packaged snacks and convenience foods fall on the acidic side and are not allowed.
