		<description>Excellent advice.  I did not mention this in my recipe but yes, soaked oats are creamy and wonderful.

		<description>Hi Erin,

My lid on my first one was plastic.  I fashioned one out of clay in pottery class that fit and works nicely.

Thanks.

		<description>Thanks for your question and I do apologize for not keeping up with the site as we have been swamped with projects but have worked on freeing up some time to reply regularly.  The devices do not produce for whole house use but the company does make them for hotels, customized installations, and hospitals and clinics.  It&#039;s hard for your body to become too alkaline because the natural stresses of life and cellular activity produce acids but you should always maintain a balance between alkaline and acidity with the level being more alkaline than acid.  Some acid is actually needed by the body.  As for a list of true alkaline forming foods, there isn&#039;t one that I know of, all of my knowledge is what I&#039;ve learned through the years but I do list some on this site.  With meals, again there is not a specific list of menu suggestions.  If you focus on not eating sugar and cutting out flour and focus on some protein foods like fish and poultry and lots of green leafy vegetables, your balance should achieve alkaline levels.  PH of 7 is neutral so that is fine but you want to move it up higher, 8-9 PH is ideal.

		<description>Hi Everyone!! 
  

 A FAbulous way to prepare your steel oats and retain all or most of the nutrients,, is to SOAK em overnight or until there soft enough for your preference. I add soaked oats to my smoothies, or make a oatmeal by blending  and adding, whatever you feel, this morning i have bannana, raw caoca, and a tiny cinnamon and agave, but you can make it how ever you like, and its RAW supper alkaline!</description>

		<description>Hi,

I was wondering if the lid on your little dipper was plastic or ceramic?  Thanks.

		<description>I am also interested in the alkaline water system from Japan and am very happy I found this website, before I purchased an expensive water filtration system for my home. I have a few questions listed below:
1. Does this alkaline system from Japan create water for the entire home, so the water we shower with and drink would be alkaline? 2. Is there any danger of our bodies becoming too alkaline, if we are bathing, showering ,cooking , and drinking large amounts of alkaline water on a daily basis? 3. Does this system produce &quot;soft water&quot;? 4. Where can I find a true reliable list of alkaline forming foods that specifically tells just how alkaline or acidic each food is.(Food ranking lists vary or are non specific) 4. Is there a website that gives specific alkaline balanced Breakfast , Lunch and Dinner menu suggestions with specific cooking instructions, if necessary? 5. My current water in my refrigerater&#039;s ph is in the 7 range, is this OK, neutral? ( My ph strips only give colors for each whole number 5-9) .John G. Kyles Inc. is the company that makes them.
 
Thank you for addressing each of my questions. I am just learning about alkaline foods etc. and from what I understand balance is the key.</description>

		<description>Mary, I see this website and your question are from some time ago, but perhaps I can share a little knowledge about why your oral pH is acidic.  I am a dental hygienist.  Our oral cavity is acidic because of the bacteria that resides in our mouth.   The plaque bacteria produce a by-product of acid.  If you are consuming at alkaline diet, their production will be less, but the acidity will still be present.  The bacteria consume sugars &amp; carbohydrates.  I am not very educated on pH diets, but I assume you still consume complex carbs and fruits?  These would feed the plaque bacteria resulting in the acidic environment.  
Another note, everyone has a different saliva make-up.  Perhaps your saliva make-up was particularily acidic prior to diet change.  Where you cavity-prone?  Have a mouth full of fillings?  This could be an indication of a very acidic oral cavity.

Hope this helps!  I&#039;d imagine your questions have already been answered by now, but for anyone else wondering...     -Amy, RDH</description>

		<description>I understand that pure maple syrup contains healthy, nutritional ingredients.  Can alkaline diet folks use this on buckwheat pancakes at least once in a while?

Also, is Almond milk acceptable in your diet?

Thank you.</description>

		<description>Mary,

I am also new to the alkaline diet world.  From the little that I understand so far, testing your saliva and urine are not accurate measures for determining our PH balance.  In fact, several parts of our bodies, both inside and out, have different PH values and systems designed to maintain the PH to that vital part of the body.  Our mouths for example are designed to be very acidic.  In fact, our digestive system starts in the mouth.  Our mouths have a system to maintain a specific acidity level and this is vital.  I believe the important factor that we try to control with an alkaline diet is the PH of the blood.</description>
