Bell Peppers

Not all peppers are created the same on the pH scale. While mildly spicy peppers like jalapenos are slightly acidic, bell peppers are beautiful and alkaline. Not only that, they are full of vitamin C and antioxidants which are amazing for your body. 

Leafy Greens

Everyone knows they should eat more leafy greens. Things like chard, spinach, kale, and other leafy greens are all alkaline foods, full of iron, calcium, and so many other important nutrients.
