Are there any other significant health benefits to eating acidic fruits besides receiving vitamin C?

Question: I’ve heard recent information suggesting that acidic fruits might be beneficial as part of an alkaline-based diet. Is there any truth to this?

Best answer:

Answer by Kimmy
There is validity to the reports that acidic fruits, and an alkaline-based diet, can be quite beneficial to your overall health. An alkaline diet is one that focuses on eating fresh fruits and vegetables, legumes, nuts, and roots and tubers. The basic principles of Chinese medicine suggest that the typical Western diet of meat, poultry, fish and shellfish, grains, dairy and salt can produce significant amounts of acid within the body, which can cause it to become toxic. These toxins can build up and cause fatigue, improper digestion, and weight gain. General malaise and lethargy can also occur.

With an alkaline-based diet, one is consuming foods containing a total amount of 75% alkaline and 25% acid. Foods containing the most alkaline are fruits and vegetables, which is why an organic, holistic approach to eating is so effective against most major diseases.

Acidic fruits like oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruits and kumquats offer important health benefits because, besides offering a plethora of vitamins and nutrients, they have an excellent alkaline effect on the body which can ultimately help to control acid reflux. These fruits can also help to maintain the body’s proper ph level.

Do all red fruits and veggies have one vitamin while green ones have another, or at least significantly higher levels of one vitamin? And if so, do you know which vitamin each color signifies?
