Dr. Sebi Food List

Dr. Sebi believed that certain plant foods — naturally alkaline, mineral-rich, non-hybrid — support the body's ability to cleanse and function well. Foods that produce acid waste in the body (meat, dairy, processed starches) work against that.

This food list is based directly on the official Dr. Sebi nutritional guide. We have not added foods or removed any; the only expansion is where the guide names an umbrella category, such as lettuce, mushrooms, or melons, and we list the specific approved varieties for easier day-to-day use.
