There is no agreement on which fruit has the lowest acid content, but the low acid fruits would include apricots, strawberries, peaches, blueberries, huckleberries, raspberries, gooseberries, mangos, nectarines, elderberries, persimmons, olives, sweet apples, cherries, blackberries, sweet plums and fresh figs. These fruits are far less toxifying as compared to acid fruits and are much easier to handle in any amount.
Apricot, plum and peach juices are supposed to be particularly low in acids.
As an alternative you could also try dilute juices to help reduce the acid, but you may need to sweeten them for the right flavor.
Most vegetables are also considered to be low-acid, with tomatoes being the exception. Try not to limit your diet too severely as this will not help much.
Instead of following a severe and restrictive diet, I would strongly urge you to have a varied and well balanced diet that includes as wide a variety of fruits and vegetables as possible. If fruits with a high acid content cause problems like mouth sores and stomach pain, then restrict your intake of such foods for just a month or two after which you can reintroduce them into your diet. Reactions to foods can at times also be linked to stress, illnesses, or the quantities of food you eat.
