If you want to know latest trends in the diet and nutrition world, then you must be aware of the alkaline diet for weight loss. A number of global and national celebrities have claimed that following an alkaline diet is better for staying in shape as well as for overall health. The diet is based on the fact that the foods we eat can affect the acidity of our body, which means that it can effectively bring about a change in the levels of pH of our body.
The diet doesn't allow the consumption of alcohol and caffeinated drinks, and also bans processed cereals, sodium-rich foods, processed meats, as well as unhealthy carbs like pasta, rice, white bread and other processed grain products. It is said that an alkaline pH is good for the immunity and may help prevent the onset of illnesses. It is also said to detoxify the body and prevent acidity and other digestive troubles. The diet involves eating a number of healthy foods, including raw foods, plant-based proteins, and fresh fruits and vegetables.
Celebrity nutritionist, Rashi Chowdhary recently posted a recipe that people following the alkaline diet will love. The recipe includes easily available, all-natural ingredients like cucumber, celery, mint, ginger and lemon. Talking about the green juice, Chowdhary wrote on Instagram, "The most alkaline but also the most nasty juice I recommend to a lot of my clients."
Rashi adds, "DO NOT add any fruit unless it's pre or post workout! If you need to add a fruit...then few slices of pineapple or an orange or a green apple go really well." Well this is a recipe that perhaps all of us can try, whether we are following the alkaline diet or not.
