The High Alkaline Smoothie Cleanse: Balance Your pH in 7 Days

by Stephan Domenig Dr.

Overview

Reboot your health in 7 days with this juice-based alkaline diet

Alkaline diets—that is, eating foods low in acid in order to keep your pH reading neutral or alkaline—have a growing legion of celebrity fans: Kelly Ripa, Victoria Beckham, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Jennifer Aniston reportedly follow it. As you age, your acid levels tend to rise, which can leave you bloated, sluggish, and uncomfortable. High alkaline diets lower inflammation and can help reduce pain and disease. Losing weight is an added plus. This book offers more than 75 recipes for juices, smoothies, soups, and more, including:  

• Green Minestrone Soup
• Coconut, Chia, and Berry Blast
• Passion Fruit Mojito
• Chocolate Nut Whip
• Lemongrass Iced Tea  

With a focus on fruits and vegetables, this science-based plan is a simple start to a lifetime of healthy eating.
