Baking Soda Remedies and Natural Cures

Baking Soda Remedies and Natural Cures
A variety of health aids, personal hygiene products and household cleaners on the market today are laced with toxic cleaners and other concerning substances. Baking soda, on the other hand, is a natural chemical compound that restores health, cleanses the body and eradicates toxic substances. From its use as a medicinal substitute to a household cleaning product, baking soda is effective at restoring balance in the body and the home without harsh chemicals or toxins.



What Is Baking Soda?



Baking soda, otherwise known as sodium bicarbonate, is a natural substance that helps regulate pH. This regulation keeps a substance from becoming too acidic or too alkaline, which is important in maintaining health. As baking soda contacts another substance, it naturally neutralizes the pH of the substance and prevents further imbalance or buffers the pH. With this effect, baking soda is able to neutralize odors, remove stains, detox the body and eliminate infection.



While baking soda is a particularly effective health treatment, it should also be noted that the substance can deplete the body of essential vitamins and minerals, particularly B vitamins, folic acid and chromium. Baking soda is best used for short periods of time in conjunction with other nutritional supports to prevent nutritional imbalances.



Health Benefits of Sodium Bicarbonate



With its natural pH neutralizing effects, baking soda serves a variety of purposes. The compound is effective for reducing pain, eliminating infection and treating inflammation.



As such, sodium bicarbonate is used to treat a variety of conditions. Acne, allergies, canker sores and bacterial infections can successfully be treated using a baking soda regimen. Burns, bee stings, and cysts also respond well to treatment with the compound. Other conditions including fatigue, cough, congestion, flatulence, gout, gum disease and others can also be treated using baking soda.



While baking soda is a readily available product in most households, few individuals are aware of how many different ways the product can be used. Baking soda is an effective treatment for a variety of health conditions and can be used to detox the body and eliminate infection safely.
