That must be why my Indian friends like to drink chai after dinner. There's plenty of spices in chai - cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, cardamom, cloves - with orange pekoe tea and milk. Nice to enjoy chai even more knowing it helps with keeping one healthy.You're welcome! :) If you believe in the theory than sure, including foods from the more alkaline lists could be of benefit. I'm not sure it matters having them at the same time we partake in an acidic food unless we find it reduces negative symptoms we may experience with an acidic food on its own such as heartburn or gas? For example – ginger is often used in meals to prevent indigestion. I think it's a common practice in India to use spices in milk to help digest it better? That sort of thing.
