Guest guest Posted March 15, 2004 Report Share Posted March 15, 2004 I don't think this person knows what they are talking about... here are just 4 articles on the benefits of cranberries.... and there are lots more. I think they are taking things out of context.... (plus they are selling something) Furthermore, note that a food's acid or alkaline-forming tendency in the body has nothing to do with the actual pH of the food itself. For example, lemons are very acidic, however the end-products they produce after digestion and assimilation are very alkaline so lemons are alkaline-forming in the body. Likewise, meat will test alkaline before digestion but it leaves very acidic residue in the body so, like nearly all animal products, meat is very acid-forming. It is what the food does inside that counts.
