Guest guest Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 All fruits are alkaline in the ash except for prunes, plums and cranberries, which remain an acid ash. All vegetables also are alkaline except for corn, hominy, and lentils which produce an acid ash. Most meats, except for bacon with high sodium, are acid as well as all breads. Fats are neutral in ph and milk and milk products are alkaline except for cheese. You can find this in our chapter on myelomeningocele, a form of spina bifida, page 101 in our book Pediatric Nutrition in Chronic Diseases and Developmental Disorders. You may find the book at a med library, at _www.oup.com/us_ (http://www.oup.com/us) promotion code 24095, or from me. We also have a 35 cr ADA approved self study to go with it. The acid ash diet is used for urinary tract infections. Hope this is helpful to you. See attachment. Contact me if questions _shirley.ekvall@..._ (mailto:shirley.ekvall@...) .
