Guest guest Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 I just bought some " Bob's Red Mill Aluminum-free baking soda " at Whole Foods. I've had lots of luck with the Bob's Red Mill brand for lots of different esoteric products. > > I'm trying to find non-aluminum baking soda to make the Epsom salt > ointment, but I'm not sure where to get non-aluminum baking soda. > What brand(s) should I look for?

Guest guest Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 So, which baking sodas have aluminum? I thought it was the baking Powder that had aluminum not the baking soda? or am i wrong? Because if the baking sodas have aluminum too then i'm switching as well. > > I'm trying to find non-aluminum baking soda to make the Epsom salt > ointment, but I'm not sure where to get non-aluminum baking soda. > What brand(s) should I look for?

Guest guest Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 Hi, I'm in Australia and have one made by a local company that is called " Low allergy baking powder " . It contains potassium bicarbonate, potassium tartrate, tapioca powder. I find it useful to use in gluten free bread mix -- when I turn the whole thing into muffins with ground nuts and stuff. Maybe search for a product with these types of ingredients. na > > > > I'm trying to find non-aluminum baking soda to make the Epsom salt > > ointment, but I'm not sure where to get non-aluminum baking soda. > > What brand(s) should I look for?

Guest guest Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 I think you mean baking powder. Baking soda is different and doesn't contain aluminum anyway. Trader Joe's and other stores carry Rumford brand baking powder. Whole Foods Market and other health food stores often carry Featherlight brand baking powder but it tends to be more expensive. S S I'm trying to find non-aluminum baking soda to make the Epsom salt <br> ointment, but I'm not sure where to get non-aluminum baking soda. <br> What brand(s) should I look for? Would the baking soda you use for <br> cooking be ok?<br> <br> Thanks.<br> _______________________________________________ Join Excite! - http://www.excite.com The most personalized portal on the Web!

Guest guest Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 Baking soda does not contain aluminum. Baking powder does unless it is clearly labeled as aluminum free, and you can find that at most grocery stores next to the regular baking powder. > > > > I'm trying to find non-aluminum baking soda to make the Epsom salt > > ointment, but I'm not sure where to get non-aluminum baking soda. > > What brand(s) should I look for?
