For each food I’ve given an intro, nutritional content per 1 cup, a number of free alkaline recipes that I’ve created for this blog or the Alkaline Diet Recipe Book and also a handful of research papers that have been published to validate the benefits stated.

This is an alkalising quinoa salad with avocado, which is not only healthy but also highly delicious.
Quinoa is an ancient “grain” from South America, which was once called “the gold of the Incas”, who believed that due to its nutritional benefits it increases the stamina of their warriors.
Quinoa is very high in “complete” protein, which means that it includes all nine essential amino acids. In addition to protein, it is also packed with other valuable nutrients like manganese, iron, magnesium, copper and phosphorus.

This is a delicious and ultra healthy green juice recipe from Gareth Edwards, our Dr Young trained blood analyst and highly qualified nutritionist.
The best vegetables to juice are the low glaecemic, greens. Cucumber and celery yield high quantities of liquid, while chard, kale, watercress, spring greens and spinach are more concentrated.
In case this sounds challenging in the flavour department, adding lemon juice makes it all highly palatable (usually!).
Gareth’s Green Juice
Ingredients
15-20 cm organic cucumber
3 sticks organic celery
6 leaves of organic chard
½ squeezed organic (un-waxed) lemon – juiced separately on a citrus squeezer and added afterwards.
