Acidity questions

HOW in the HECK are BLUEBERRIES acidic?!?! I thought they were supposed to be one of the better berries for you, very antioxidizing, etc.? [www.essense-of-life.com] How?! Why?! Do the benefits outweigh the acidity? Mmm... and the chart also says sprouts are alkalizing, but lentils are acidic. So, what about sprouted lentils? O.o It was very nice to see a chart like this, anyway. Edit: tahini was also acidic, wonder if raw is the same? Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 02/16/2008 08:06PM by phantom. Re: Acidity questions

If you tried, they would start tasting horrible and give your stomach an upset. It's easier to get more of your calories from something more neutral like banana and many raw foodists do exactly that.
