Some people consider taking a small amount of baking soda every day for its health benefits because it is alkaline. However, it is important to be careful and consider both the possible benefits and drawbacks of this practice. Here is an explanation of what happens when you consume baking soda every day:
Benefits of Baking Soda
Balances stomach acid.
Baking soda can quickly balance stomach acid, helping to combat heartburn and indigestion. It works as a heartburn medicine, which is why it is often found in antacid products that can be purchased over the counter.
Improves athletic performance.
Some research suggests that baking soda may improve exercise performance. It helps by reducing the buildup of lactic acid in muscles during intense exercise, which can improve endurance and decrease fatigue.
May help improve the health of your kidneys.
People with long-term kidney problems, who frequently experience acidosis (too much acidity in body fluids), may benefit from using baking soda to control the condition and improve kidney function.
May impact bladder infections:
By making the bladder environment less acidic, baking soda could potentially reduce the severity and frequency of UTIs. However, more studies are needed to confirm this.
