In my many experiments with meditation i am always on the look our for freeing the body and consciousness from distractions and experiencing that sense of lightness that sometimes occurs during mediation. i have found that the foods i eat determine to some degree the amount of relaxation or tension involved in meditation. A diet high in fruits which is alkaline i find more suitable for meditation. Perhaps others have had different experiences.
'It is important to remember that the method of cooking will also have either an acidic or alkaline reaction. For example, a potato that is baked or boiled in its jacket is alkaline food, whereas a fried potato is acid-forming.'
i found this chart helpful:

A negative PRAL score indicates the food is basic/alkaline.
A positive PRAL score indicates the food is acidic.
A score of 0 indicates the food is neutral.
These are foods high in Alkaline levels;
