This document categorizes foods and other substances as either acidifying or alkalizing based on their effect on the body's pH levels after digestion. It lists various vegetables, fruits, grains, proteins, fats, spices, and other foods, noting whether they are acidifying and alkaline. It also explains that while the pH of a food itself may be acidic or alkaline, its end products after digestion and assimilation could have the opposite effect on the body's pH levels.
