Re: Baking soda

June 5, 2005

Janice,

As far as I know only use of baking powder is to bake with. Check

the can to see if other uses. It won't help you with mold or

anything.

Baking soda is that Arm and Hammer stuff and can be used for a wide

variety of cleaning jobs. It scours very well without leaving

scratches. I use to get bird dirt off of my car finish without

leaving a scratch for example. I use it in bath, laundry. Since it

is a 'sodium', it softens water and makes it 'wetter', helps to get

things much cleaner IF you otherwise have hard water. I have hard

water so makes big difference. If you have water supply that has

water softener in it already, probably not needed.

I used baking soda to wash with along with borax. Then I use

vinegar in rinse water. No use using them together since I think

acidity of vinegar would cancel out alkalinity/saltiness added with

baking soda = cancel the water softener affects of baking soda I

think.

Thank you, . I am very much into raw organic fruits and vegetable and I get them from an excellent online source. My problem is that most water measures 5.5 pH and frankly, I don't see how one can get their pH up when they saturated their body with acidic water. Even the spring water and others are 5.5 pH. I am thinking of getting a Kangen water machine. I am not sick in any way. I don't take any drugs. It probably helps that I take the many supplements I take.

Helen,

Did you look into the Jupiter brand? That is the one we we had and when we purchased it -, as I recall, it was the most cost effective. It may be different today as that was a few years ago.

Hi What was your experience with the Jupiter? Are you not using any longer? I do wonder what the difference is between the different brands. I want one that makes very strong alkaline water so I can put it in my bath, too. Helen susan <ssiegel5@...> wrote: Helen, Did you look into the Jupiter brand?

The Jupiter worked great. You can set it to level of alkalinity that you want. We stopped using it because I was concerned about the flouride in the water that cannot be filtered out. So we bought a countertop distiller and use that instead.

I do not think you could take a bath with it. It comes out very slow to fill a bath unless you are talking about a whole different kind of machine. The one we had sat on the counter next to the sink and you could turn a knob and switch it from the sink water to the ionized water. You are better off just taking magnesium baths or h2o2 baths. Or you could use the miracle II products.
