If you are interested in the pH of the food itself, you can find
that here:
http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~comm/lacf-phs.html
and if you are interested in the net endogenous acid production
(NEAP) of a type of food, you can find that here:
http://www.ajcn.org/cgi/content/full/76/6/1308
where the authors define NEAP as the sum of sulfuric and
organic acids minus bicarbonate.
NEAP alkalinity in descending order by this definition:
leafy greens
fruity vegetables
roots
sweet fruit
tubers
beans
nuts
eggs
dairy
grains
meats
So eat more leaves, non leafy veggies, and fruit, and eat
less dairy, egg, grain, and animal flesh.
