Best Natural Alkaline Drinks

• Water: You can learn more about the different types of water in this blog. Dr. Sebi recommended drinking spring water as a day to day drink. Natural Alkaline water boasts a higher pH level than regular tap water, typically ranging from 8 to 9.5. It helps neutralize acid in the body, promote hydration, and support overall well-being. Natural Alkaline water is hard to find directly from the source.
• Coconut Water: Packed with essential electrolytes such as potassium, magnesium, and calcium, coconut water not only quenches your thirst but also helps restore balance in the body. Opt for organic, pure coconut water without added sugars or artificial flavors for maximum benefits, Dr. Sebi recommended using the young coconut.
• Tea: Certain types of tea can contribute to alkalinity. Herbal teas like chamomile, elderberry, and dandelion are known for their alkaline-forming effects on the body. Alkaline teas contain powerful antioxidants that support overall health. Choose organic, loose-leaf teas when possible.
• Alternative Milk: “Milk” made from walnuts, young coconut, or hemp are naturally alkaline and provide essential. Look for unsweetened varieties to avoid added sugars and preservatives, or better yet, make your own at home. 
• Natural, Unsweetened Fruit or Fruit-and-Vegetable Juice: Opt for natural, unsweetened varieties to avoid excessive sugar content. Incorporate alkaline-rich options such as key lime, tamarind, cucumber, watermelon, and leafy greens like kale for a vibrant and healthful boost.
