Question 1

what is baking soda good for?

Accepted Answer

Leavening: Leavening in baking.  Absorbs odors.  Mild cleaning agent.  A not very effective dentifrice.

Question 2

does baking soda show up on a drug test?

Accepted Answer

No: Not surprising, as baking soda is not a drug that people abuse recreationally.  However, eating a lot of baking soda (as an antacid, say) is not good for you, as it contains a lot of sodium.

Question 3

baking soda is safe for have a high creatinine?

Accepted Answer

Not as treatment: Muscular men tend to have high creatinine and with today's laboratory fads tend to become instant kidney patients. If your creatinine is up because of actual illness, see whether you can't get it treated -- baking soda won't even deal with the acidosis of kidney failure as you simply turn it to carbon dioxide and breathe it out.

Question 4

it's it safe too douch with baking soda and why ?

Accepted Answer

No need to douche: The vagina is an amazing organ- it keeps itself clean without the help of any soaps or douches. There are "good" bacteria in the vagina that help keep out the "bad" bacteria, and douching too much can lead to a change in the bacterial flora of the vagina. This can predispose to infections such as bacterial vaginosis. You can clean with water and gentle soap around the outside of the vagina.

Question 5

can i take baking soda in water for overall health?

Accepted Answer

You can....: ..but I can't tell you it is absolutely beneficial. Proponents suggest it works as an antacid and antiseptic, which may ease stomach and digestive troubles. Some say the increased alkalinity may combat some diseases including kidney stones and gout. But baking soda can interact with other medicines and supplements, and also contains sodium. Most would only use for heartburn. Discuss with your doc

Question 7

what can cause dandruff and why is baking soda + acv not working?

Accepted Answer

Use real Rx: If you insist on a "natural" remedy, then your options still include coal tar, selenium, ketoconazole, and the common blue stuff with zinc. Forget the baking soda stuff, it's an Internet claim that will disappoint you.

Question 8

Question 10

sir please help me.. my uncle has high creatinine level, is baking soda is a good home dremedy for it?thank you sir

Accepted Answer

Kidney disease: This requires knowledge of the cause of the kidney failure and the value of serum electrolytes. Even if acidosis is present you can't home remedy it by given quantities of baking soda without knowing the precise amount of sodium bicarbonate you're administering and daily measuring of electrolytes. The physician or nephrologist who knows the case is best qualified to render proper care and followup
