Acid-Alkaline Oils & Fats Food Chart
The values for this acid-alkaline oils and fats food chart are explained in my Basic Acid Alkaline Food Chart Introduction.
If you have any questions about this information, or have any suggestions for improvements, please add your comments below. This chart is an introduction to my project to provide you with your free online food diary, but I’ve barely scratched the surface. I have loads of ideas for turning this basic information into an interactive service to help you plan your diet, but I also want your ideas. Your feedback will help me move this project quickly to provide you with better nutrition management tools.
