But the fact is that the body performs a clever bit of chemical engineering and the final effect on the blood is alkaline. it Homemaker's Responsibility A balanced diet must Include foods to sufficient neutralize and counter-balanc- e the effects of the acids formed in metabolism. That is one reason why it is so important for the homemaker to provide her family with plenty of milk, fruits and vegetables, in addition to the necessary meat, fish, eggs and cereals. In general, one is likely to feel g better when foods predominate, at least slightly, in foods. the diet over Some authorities believe that this may be due not so much to their e effect on the balance as to the fact that they provide such splendid amounts of vitamins, minerals and fiber. However, one must not make the mistake of becoming so enthusiastic over building a highly alkaline diet that one overlooks good foods necessary to round out a balanced diet. To those homemakers who take seriously the important job of feeding a family, and wish to be correctly informed, I shall gladly send a chart showing which foods are alkaline and which acid. It can be used as a helpful guide in planning a balanced diet. Send for this chart and increase your food knowledge.
