STRIKE A BALANCE
In this gastronomy-driven culture, we are often guilty of consuming too much meat, rice, bread, pasta, coffee, alcoholic drinks and sugary stuff . In the long run, these foods can cause metabolic acids to accumulate in the body, which may negatively impact physiologic function. To counter the effects of acidic food, it’s important to load up on alkalising grub like fruits and vegetables. You can also add alkaline water to your diet. With a pH of 8.5, Yeo’s pH Infinity Alkaline Artesian Water ($1.60) can help to regulate the body’s acidity, while meeting daily fluid needs. Available at major supermarkets and convenience stores.
