Because Hollywood celebrities are keen on practicing them, weight loss methods including 5 Factor Diet, Master Cleanse, Zone Diet, etc. became a trend in an instant. The latest and most widely discussed one is the "alkaline food diet", which is a weight loss method practiced by Hollywood actresses Paltrow, Jennifer Aniston and other celebrities who pay attention to health and wellness.

Victoria Beckham, a socialite and designer, publicly stated on Twitter that she "loves" the alkaline food diet. Today I will introduce to you a lot of knowledge about the alkaline food weight loss method.

Why the alkaline food diet?

First, let’s start by talking about the two main categories of food: acidic and alkaline. For example, vegetables and fruits are classified as alkaline foods because they contain minerals such as sodium, potassium, and calcium. In contrast, the minerals contained in meat, fish and rice are converted into phosphoric acid after entering the body, so they are acidic foods.

The basic principle of the alkaline food diet emphasizes that alkaline foods should account for 70% of the food eaten in a day. Because acidic foods will increase the burden on the liver and kidneys. By increasing the proportion of alkaline foods in your diet, you can reduce the burden on your liver and kidneys and transform yourself into a body that is easier to lose weight.

Moreover, consuming more alkaline foods can maintain the body's pH value at an ideal balance of 7.35 to 7.45. In addition to giving the body plenty of energy, it can also prevent symptoms such as headaches, heart disease, muscle and bone aches, and insomnia, and can achieve many effects that are beneficial to physical health.

Natasha Corrett, one of the authors of the book "Honestly Healthy" and the sister of actress Sienna Miller, lost 12.7 kilograms after following this diet.

Alkaline Diet Diet Meal Examples

You must pay attention to the intake of starchy grains, vegetables and fruits. For example: white rice, pasta, potatoes, dairy products (milk, cream, cheese, yogurt, ice cream), meat (beef, pork, lamb, chicken), fish, eggs, shellfish, etc. are all counted. In addition, beverages including black tea, coffee, sweetened drinks, carbonated drinks and alcoholic beverages are all NG.

Conversely, foods that are classified as alkaline are as follows. Including fruits such as apples, avocados, grapefruits, lemons, oranges, and non-starchy vegetables such as asparagus, onions, pumpkins, carrots, broccoli, cabbage, lettuce, as well as almonds, coconut, olive oil, etc. Beverages include water, coconut water, herbal tea, etc.

After looking at the above list, many people may think, "There are too many restrictions. I'm afraid I can't do it." It is worth noting that some nutrients can only be obtained from acidic foods, so it does not require you to completely avoid acidic foods. At best, we hope that you will consider the balanced ratio of acidic and alkaline foods when eating, and aim to consume 70% alkaline foods. This is the most important thing.
