Baking soda, also known as sodium bicarbonate and baking soda, is primarily used in cooking when baking flour products. Baking soda is completely non-toxic and can be used to solve some health ailments and many household problems cheaply and effectively. Sodium bicarbonate is a white crystalline powder.

Health effects of using baking soda
• Sodium bicarbonate (rather, its aqueous solution) has a weak alkaline effect. It is a good antiseptic for conjunctivitis, laryngitis, stomatitis and rhinitis;
• A teaspoonful of soda dissolved in milk, or even better with a spoonful of honey, is the best remedy for coughs, as it thins the stringy secretions;
• Inhalations with a soda solution (a tablespoon of soda per liter of boiling water) relieve any respiratory problems by killing viruses and microbes that cause inflammatory processes;
• Baking soda is a popular remedy for quick heartburn relief (a quarter spoonful of baking soda to half a glass of water). In this case, soda should be used only when there are no other means at hand. Frequent use has the opposite effect: acid secretion increases;

• Can be used as a scrub, both for the face and the whole body;
• Baking soda is useful for hand, foot or body baths, as it has an antiseptic and antimycotic effect;
• A strong soda solution soothes itching from mosquito bites and relieves pain from bee and wasp bites.
