Before You Consume Baking Soda: WATCH THIS

Well I'm not convinced. My parents have used it almost everyday of their life and they are 92 and I have as well. Have zero symptoms on your list But I believe everyone is DIFFERENT and need to listen to your body. Thanks for posting.

[@shakibzz]

I learned this in uni class 2 weeks ago - there are types of people with different types of genes. Like there's 4 types of genes, and we get a combination of each so there's 4*2= 8 types of ways to be. They're kinda categorized into 3 groups: the very lucky healthy genes (rare), the gotta-be-careful genes (most common), the very at risk genes. Generally my prof said we can't get advice from the 110 year old who smoked a pack every day of their life and say "ah! So smokings not bad for you!"; They might have marvelous genes, so we gotta look at the research and the averages and see that smoking leads to cancers and so many other diseases. I'm not sure how two different human beings can both be lucky with genes and get married, that would be wild, and I don't know if this is the explanation at all! Just letting you know of some more info that I recently learned :)

I have read after two weeks of taking sodium bicarbonate it forces the stomach to make more acid. Idk but I do know many people have taken it for years and are healthy.

I’m a firm believer in using sodium bicarbonate for its many benefits. I drink it, brush my teeth with it and I have a small bowl of Sodium bicarbonate and water (saturated)for hand and nail cleaning to kill fungus and germs. I also use that SB saturated water for itching areas on my skin. Works great all the time for many of my conditions. It will expel cancer. I know that because I did it. I would not condemn Sodium Bicarbonate because of this video. That’s a statement from own experience and research.

[@terencef9424]

I agree Madeline. I have it in the morning on an empty stomach. Those who use it after a meal would have digestion issues. The stomach has another valve at the exit of the stomach and entry to the small intestine. This valve is open when one wakes up in the morning. The soda bicarbonate sort of passes through and gets an entry into the intestines where its supposed to be. I would suggest waiting an hour before eating anything solid. When your sense of smell gets a whiff of your bacon and eggs the exit valve of the stomach shuts letting the acids build up for digestion. The soda bicarbonate by now is on its way doing its job and flushing out the kidneys. The key to consuming soda bicarbonate is early morning... Not to calm acid reflux after a meal. Other than that everything's good...lol!

Since taking baking soda, probiotics, vit c and other supplements as well as changing my diet a bit - I maybe need one antibiotic here and there (I maybe take 2- 3 pills a month opposed to everyday, it’s been life changing).

It is more effective and the infection cure more rapidly, I do not know exactly why is that, but I was told to do so. The reflux I have sometimes is linked to hemorroides...😁yeah I find it funny too .The digestive system act like 1 organ

[@candyalexander2196]

How do u take it for UTI what amounts how many days and how much water thanks

[@avocadomasher1390]

Sooo I was using baking soda to clean my salad and than I was asking myself why my insulin spiked. I looked up and found baking powder = glycemic index which was 92. I had so many pains and tiredness. I’m so happy I spot it. Thanks Berg!

[@giselleiman6212]

You used baking powder that’s different

[@valentinhomerescuyos4344]

baking soda is not carbohydrate its a chemical no sugar spike

[@ashils6019]

But, why are you not talking about the benefits of baking soda?? I learned that there are a couple health benefits associated with consuming a bit of baking soda..??

[@TanjaPaetau]

When I wake up, I have a glass of hot water with lemon and a pinch of baking soda and wait 2 hours for breakfast. And at night before going to sleep I have a glass of hot water with a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar. It's okay like that Dr. Berg?

[@eduardoelizondo3487]

It's perfect like that, nice routine.

[@2jsplace]

Au contraire! I read baking soda is used intravenously for virus and cancers in alternative clinics where mainstream protocol is not the rule. For over a year I put a fat pinch in my coffee and it de-acidifies it according to the PH strips I test with. I have Interstitial cystitus that most mds don't acknowledge, but is acid burning bladder; for some reason my natural balance of acid/alkaline is off. I sometimes use up to a teaspoon of baking soda a day, not all at once ever, to alkalize bladder. Never after food because it interrupts digestion, but I read that it is safe to take up to 1/2 t. twice a day according to more than one health source online. Brushing teeth with it cuts out cavities because it counters the acid in the mouth which it is believed also in alternative clinics to be cause of rotting teeth. Also keeps teeth white. The American diet is highly acidic, which is the cause of a lot of disease if not most according to Macrobiotics and other related alternative sources.

[@melvinbrown2520]

Baking soda works!!!

[@weswelk6014]

if you add lemon juice to 1/4 tsp of baking soda and 8 oz water > do you see a problem with this right before bed? Its supposed to be a kidney tonic.

[@Drberg]

I can't seem to find a Dr. Berg video, so you may want to do your own research on this. Dr. Berg's Support Team.

[@johnhasse3995]

Dr. Berg. Please check out Vernon Johnston's story. Baking soda for 'acid reflux': the dose makes the poison. It is probably the best solution if you use the lowest effective dose. (That is AFTER meals,,, not soon before a meal.)

[@russellseah2347]

What about neutralising the acidity of coffee by adding a pinch of baking soda?

[@hananfahed5249]

Thank you very much Dr.Berg you deserve ❤ 💖 a lot of love and respect for information 💐💐⚘⚘💖

[@Drberg]

Very glad to be of help.

[@ManvsTrail]

So if our pancreas uses bicarbonate, but taking bicarbonate by mouth is bad', where is the pancreas getting bicarbonate from? Is this video just focusing on acid reflex effect with sodium bicarbonate? Or Sodium Bicarbonate in general?

[@so505kean5]

Coffee will lower my stomach acid by a lot! I enjoy coffee, but it really effects me.

[@southerncalifornia3155]

I also feel stomachache after drinking coffee (decaf) ...

[@marinfam6]

It's actually increasing your acid

[@so505kean5]

I believe it lowers stomach acid. That’s why it gives you gerd.

[@petermikhail7419]

I think a little bit of baking soda won't have these drastic effects. It is used by doctors to treat acidosis, renal tubular acidosis, acidemia and kidney stone. It is alkalizing agent. If I would take it , I would have a pinch on morning water on empty stomach. I won't take it with food to avoid the reduction of stomach Ph so my food get digested well.

[@--AllGoNoQuit--]

🤣😄😆 "Other than that... Your good!" That's GOLD doc, lol absolute gold!

[@georgetor7642]

Yeh, I was laughing from this ending as well 🤣 it's similar as to say: ...You'll die, but other than that you GOOD 🤣

[@__Paul__]

That cracked me up as well. It is like "Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln... how was the play?"

[@dougswartz3927]

I liked the part where he said youre treating the symptom not the problem. Isn’t that what all the Doctors do when they prescribe you drugs for a lifetime? Come on screwball!

[@bustergoldenrod]

I was told to try it for my gout which I’ve had for 20 years. Of the only two preventive medications available , Allopurinol caused my liver function to drop and Adenuric made me gain 10kgs, generally feel ill and doesn’t work as I’m still getting regular attacks.

[@Drberg]

I will check with Dr. Berg about this!

[@bustergoldenrod]

@@Drberg many thanks 🙏

[@lauracantu159]

I usually like to try things, AFTER I watch knowledgeable videos. What do you think about the sea salt with baking soda in water, that many are advertising as the perfect drink to fight cellulite?

[@daisychain914]

But you highly recommend baking soda for gout in a different video ..?

[@bleulotus]

I had a huge craving for baking soda while pregnant like it was disgusting how much I ate 😩 thanks doc !

[@Sampardhanani]

Our dear doc , always cheerful.

[@oblongowl]

such a great old remedy for occasional acid indigestion. I wont stop taking it - since i take it rarely.

[@canahmetdarama354]

Question : Which parts of an animal can we or should we eat? Lung, Stomach, Gut, Kidney...

[@canahmetdarama354]

@Chandra Minick thanks, i will take a look

[@helenluceyatkins7290]

Thank you Dr Berg. There's no end to your knowledge. Many blessings to you

[@yuiopoli9601]

Haven't you ever wondered why? What makes his understanding more true than others that say the opposite? I don't mean pharma shills. Countless studies show SB helping the kidneys... but it's Eric says otherwise I suppose millions of people are liars? I value him highly as well but that doesn't make him all knowing.

[@tajmeal]

I'm taking baking soda after 4 hrs of a meal. So that it shouldn't mess the digestion of food in the stomach. And it really helps me to digest food in the intestine tract. However, I take small doses maximum of 5 mg or less. And I don't do it frequently. I just do it only after heavy meals. Is that OK or not? I'm curious to know what Dr. Berg would say about it. Thanks.

[@Bonbon-zl4eb]

I use it mixed in water to clean fruits and vegetables. Is this a good method or what else should I use to clean fruits and vegetables? Thanks!

[@jimt9261]

The one scenario you NEVER address Dr Berg, is acid reflux from hiatus hernia. I have spoken to numerous GP's about this and they just shrug and say they don't know what to advise. I had been on Omaprazole for 6-7 years continually, then Ranitidine for about a year until it was withdrawn due to being carcinogenic, and for the past couple of years I've been taking about half to one teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate before bed. It stops the reflux while I sleep, but my digestion is disastrous. It's been getting steadily worse since I got the hiatus hernia. Constant diarrhea, bloating, gas, discomfort. Advice please Dr Berg!

[@daveedwards7366]

Sleep with your upper body elevated, this should stop your reflux mate, works for me perfect

[@jaime1818]

I had that hernia and it gave me a lot of problems. Omeprazol is trouble, using it for a long period of time. I used a similar kind and couldn't use the toilet, joints pain. I feel very sick for years. Then I checked the sides effects for those kids of medicine. Constipation and joints pain. If you don't have enough stomach acid you can't absorb the nutrients and minerals from foods. Be careful. For the last 6 years i haven't taken any medicine thanks God and I feel almost 100%. Warm water with a few drops of lime. No cold water. Every time you drink, drop some lime. Magnesium chloride a God sent mineral, tablets. Apple cider vinegar sometimes, not too much. And baking soda without aluminum organic when things get greasy. I just had a endoscopy and the Doctor didn't even mentioned to me. It might be gone thanks God. Good luck 😊

[@beekerscustoms]

​@daveedwards7366 that was a game changer for me,

[@FLAMENCODELACOSTA]

Love you, Dr. Berg! I found that my acid reflux can be controlled by watching how much I eat and what I eat.

[@fidelcatsro6948]

my cat loves you too!!

[@michellejohnson6207]

It actually isnt controlled, my suggestion is to watch Dr Bergs other videos if you haven't, we need enough acid to make sure that our foods are broken down

[@terryseldon7446]

My acid reflux . Came from stress then the foods what produce the symptom. But once removed the stress. ( another person) have not had it in many yrs. And still eat the food that i thought was producing it daily still... stress shows itself in strange ways

[@samuel_doran]

Yeah thats not entirely true. If you consume before or after, yes it can cause trouble with digestion, by weakening the acid used to digest. However, there is plenty of benefits consuming baking soda with sea salt, and distilled water. I'm actually kind of shocked by your statements, hopefully it is out of ignorance.

[@Avatar7x7]

Which baking soda is best to drink with water !

[@TheOnlyStonemason]

Sodium bicarbonate is good for the kidneys- especially when fasting. Horrible if used for acid reflux!

[@levigonzalez5684]

I took it once and i woke up the next day with HORRIBLE kidney irritation. idk y

[@Joe-xo3xy]

@Dr. Eric Berg DC hope you are well? Thanks for the videos , they are appreciated. Quick Question-is it okay if I wash my lettuce leaves and other veggies in baking soda solution, I feel these veggies have thin leaves and will absorb a good amount of the baking soda. I am not sure if this is a safe practice, your opinion will be appreciated. Regards Joey

[@billiejod6882]

They say soda bicarbonate helps with the emf and heavy metals in the body. What do you suggest for detox for heavy metals.

[@Seek_Him]

Have you found any information on this subject? I heard melatonin helps & colloidal silver & Cbd??

[@lindareed1374]

Thank you, love your videos and my digestive system is doing much better.

[@brucehutchinson9527]

Use milk of magnesia magnesium hydroxide) occasional stomach upset. Magnesium is a needed nutrient.

[@garylhorn]

I've heard it might be okay to take baking soda on a empty stomach. I think the purpose of this was to raise the pH in the digestive tract, and possibly therefore the body's overall pH since there may be some supposed benefits to that regarding cancer, so I hear. What have you heard about that, Dr Berg?

[@whoiszander]

What the doctors don’t want you to know

[@lauraatkocius8127]

What about taking bile salts? Won't that also change stomach acidity?

[@Drberg]

Check out this link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qIjag5KLjsmcq5I Hope it helps answer your question!

[@vaughan2203]

Oh please tell us your thoughts on ivermectin and HCQ as well.

[@HxC_Fragman]

They absolutely work. AVOID REMDEMSIVIR. Its Snake venom enzymes inside of it. HCQ etc block the receptors so this cant bind to you. So does nicotine which is crazy. Stay safe people. Covid has Snake venom enzymes as well. PLA2

[@abraisrael7733]

Another danger of over use of baking soda is baking soda poisoning (more information is available from local poison control center) which can cause dizziness, heart palpitations, and more. Best remedy for this is water...drink lots of water to flush the excess baking soda out the system.

[@liocean9636]

Baking Soda is very good for you. CO help blood, fights cancers, etc.
