Baking soda is known to have a wide range of benefits, which cut across cleanliness, beauty, cooking, and health.

It was first used as medicine in 1924, to treat cold and flu, by Arm & Harm who found that baking soda diluted in water can avert flu and common cold, and also treat cough.

Baking soda also serves as antacid, and hence can relieve ulcer-related pains by neutralizing the stomach pH and soothing the ulcer symptoms.


It also promotes the transportation of oxygen across the body and raises the pH levels if they’re low. Hence, baking soda is very effective when it comes to dealing with complications occasioned by acidity and lack of oxygen.

According to medical experts, you can use baking soda to treat ulcers, diabetes, arthritis, skin complications, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. It can also be used in a foot bath, as well as for making natural aluminum-free baking soda based deodorants.

A combination of baking soda and water may not be an ideal solution since it’s quite alkaline, whereas the stomach needs to be acidic to digest hard food.

Nonetheless, you can add Himalayan salt, which has abundance of electrolytes and contains 84 minerals that uphold cell health, promotes the nervous system, and improves general well-being. As such you’ll have water packed with minerals, hydrogen, and oxygen for the cells, which can balance the pH levels and hydrate the whole body.

This great solution will also improve the function of your kidneys and lungs. While the solution of baking soda and water has a pH of 8.2, that of Himalayan pink salt has a pH of about 6.50. Hence, this water will bring the blood pH close to the optimal levels.

This is how to prepare it:
