You may be wondering whether cherries are acid forming or alkaline forming, and some nutritionists claim that your diet should be slightly alkaline for optimal health.
So are cherries acidic or alkaline?
Cherries are actually slightly alkaline, but are very close to neutral on the pH scale.
While a 7.0 on the pH scale would be completely neutral, cherries tend to fall between 7.0 and 8.0, which makes them slightly alkaline.
