==>No, adding baking soda wouldn't be necessary since you are buffering

it with cal/mag powder. Taking ascorbic acid straight is hard on the

teeth and the stomach, so buffering it is necessary.

Is there any other reason for taking baking soda by mouth other than buffering

the ascorbic acid? Is it completely safe? I ask this because my mother keeps

telling me that she read someplace recently that baking soda is not good to

ingest. She can't remember why or where she read this. I've been taking it

anyways, and it is just on the back of my mind. I like to see some place that

verifies its ok and has been reccomended. Val

==>Yes, with warm water it can settle an upset stomach. Your own

body makes baking soda to alkalize foods coming out of the stomach.

You can also rinse your eyes with it, and brush your teeth with it.

==Yes.

==>In Nourishing Traditions cookbook by Sally Fallon she recommends

taking baking soda in warm water to settle your stomach.

Thanks Bee. You're my mentor, and I admire you for what you do here. And another

thing, lots of my friends and family know all about you, from me. I'm teaching

them a few things on healthy eating from what I've learned here. Val P.S. I

love the sally fallon cookbook and have been making her recipes before I found

this support group. I make her saurkraut and eat it everyday.
