A member asked:

How would you use baking soda to correct the ph level in your body?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

PH of body: The ph of your body is tightly controlled by the kidneys and even by your breathing rate. It would not be a good idea to try and control the ph with baking soda nor would it be very effective. It could actually cause harm.
