What's the recommended proportion of acidic foods to alkaline? The rule to follow is
70/30 or better. There is no need to go to an extreme. However, this is a very simple way to keep track of a few of the things that you may be eating that you may want to cut back. See if you are heading down the acidic road or the alkaline. You definitely want to be on the road of health and be eating at least
30% alkaline and No Less!--
To your health,
Stephen
