Alkaline food can protect you from many diseases and can increase the immune response of the body. There are many reasons for the virus attacks such as a weak immune system, unhealthy lifestyle, lower levels of oxygen inside the body, acidity (pH below 7), etc. Alkalinity of the body should be maintained at any cost because acidity will make your body susceptible to diseases. A balanced diet which contains acidic and alkaline food is best for the body.

Acidic foods are also useful to avoid certain kinds of diseases but anything more than the normal can play havoc. Fruits and vegetables should be your ideal choice. Vegetables and fruits which contain vitamins, enzymes, minerals, water, fiber, importantly antioxidants, etc should be consumed.
