Kelly Ripa is revealing why she stopped drinking alcohol.
The TV host has been drink free for the past three years. She follows a plant-based, alkaline diet and has been for the past five years.
The diet focuses on foods low in acidity, primarily vegetables like beets, broccoli, cucumber and kale and she found that it “changed” her life.
Kelly said: “I believe inflammation is one of the great killers of people, in different ways. Whether it’s digestive problems, or heart health, or brain inflammation. Inflammation really affects your body in totality, so I try to maintain a really alkaline diet.”
Ripa says it started with a short agreement with friends for three months.
However, she says afterward she felt great, so she decided to stop drinking alcohol.
