“One of the greatest...cures I’ve found happens to be one of the

easiest!... It’s [in] that little gold box of baking soda you use to keep

your

refrigerator smelling fresh.... I...use it as a ‘little miracle remedy’ for

allergies, anxiety, colds, fatigue, infections, memory loss, osteoporosis,

weight

gain, and much more,†writes Susan Lark, M.D., in The Doctor’s Treasury of

New

Healing Choices.

 

Why does baking soda work such magic?

Lark says because it reverses over-acidic conditions in the body by

balancing pH. Our bodies, says Lark, become too stressed and, with toxic foods

and

environments and emotions contributing to acid-causing processes, we need to

reverse the acid overload. One way is to reduce stress and another is to

include alkaline-forming foods (primarily vegetables and fruits) in a ratio of

70-80% in the diet (and reduce acid-forming foods such as meats, refined sugars

and grains). Also as a medicine to balance pH in the body, mix 1/4 to 1/2

teaspoon baking soda in a glass of pure mineral or spring water twice a day,

either in the morning or in the evening at bedtime (notice which dose makes you

feel best). Lark maintains that you will ward off colds, flu and allergies

because these illnesses grow in acidic conditions in the body (for example, in

the respiratory tissues), but not in alkaline pH bodies! Also, your bones

will become stronger because over-acidic conditions pull alkaline minerals such

as calcium from your bones. You will have increased energy, more stamina,

better digestion, sharper thinking and better sleep and reduce your risk of

other diseases such as cancer simply by balancing your body pH. So, de-stress,

balance your diet with 80% alkaline foods and use baking soda as a medicine to

help balance an over-acidic body.

That little gold box is loaded with Aluminum and I see enough heavy metals in my

practice that I help people detox from. Baking Soda is great but it needs to be

Aluminum FREE.......always!!

There is NO aluminum in baking soda.

 

ALL baking soda is aluminum free (even though it may not say so on the box).

 

Please stop repeating this mis-information. Baking POWDER may contain

alumninum....but not baking soda.

The  confusion arises because there are products sold in the market which are

labeled as aluminum-free baking soda. It seems there is no aluminum in the Arm

and Hammer brand. Follow the link for more discussion.
