My mum always used it for indigestion ❤

[@Nannyskely]

Yes, I have x

Also, people took it during the Spanish flu. I read a story about a family who drank it daily, they didn’t get infected regardless of the fact they were helpers and visiting those that had it.

Touch wood, and there but for the grace of God, I never got covid 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@funtimefranky]

@@Nannyskely Touch wood! I was hospitalised with the Wuhan strain at the very beginning of the pandemic. I picked it up in Italy. I was in an isolation room with a glass front, just like you see in the movies. Not much was known about it then, such strange times. I’ve since had it 3 times… I use to say I was Covid’s answer to Typhoid Mary. 😂 I use to disinfect everything and am generally a clean freak but it didn’t help.🤷‍♀️ Prior to that, I honestly hadn’t had a cold in 20 years.

My little treasure❤Women tend to get more UTIs than men because the female urethra is shorter than the male urethra. It is also closer to the anus. These two factors mean bacteria have less distance to travel from the anus to the bladder in women than in men. As we get older our bladders are weaker so we cant fight infections like we used to. Drinking loads of water a day keeps water infections at bay to flush em out. Connie is so funny bless her😂 Love you ❤❤❤❤❤

I use it for cystitis. A teaspoon in a glass of water takes the sting way! Of course you need to see a GP if it persists but it takes the burn away the next time you pee.

PLEASE READ!!! Actually, here in the U.S., the ingredient on my box of Baking Soda, says Soda Bicarbonate - so I’m thinking Baking Soda & Sodium Bicarbonate - are the same thing or very similar 🤷‍♀️ Anyway, as you were thinking of different uses… I have something crazy to share with you. Last year, I stumbled across a video of some gentleman who said he had prostate cancer … but that he’s now cancer free b/c he started drinking 1/4-1/2 tsp of Bicarbonate Of Soda in a glass of water 3x’s a day. Then, b/c of algorithms, another video popped up of a woman claiming her stage 4 breast cancer went away & she too mentioned drinking water with baking soda. Now, I’m no dr & I don’t know these people personally… but they both heard that drinking the bicarbonate of soda creates an alkaline environment & that cancer cells cannot survive in an alkaline environment 🤷‍♀️ But, anyway… you might want to look into it … & I’m going to do more research as well PS: (plus it softens your water in your washing machine & dishwasher & is lovely to soak your feet in) 🤍🕊️🤍

[@Nannyskely]

Oh! I'm going to tell John, but your right the cancer survive on sweet things and jihn has had a very very sweet tooth all the time I have known him. Pkt. Of 6 chock bars, always in his fridge, he's cut back now. He's learnt this x

😂🎉 Connie's comment is too funny!! Great tips Cath. 👍 You mentioned that while Connie sleeps she doesn't have an issue. I would think that's great news. My train of thought is inside or outside of the mind n body. Meaning the CAUSE of the problem. Since she's fine while sleeping, I'm wondering if there is a trigger that makes it come on. Especially when you say that it happens when she gets upset. That's very important to tell the Dr. My niece has it but never needed surgery, just medication thank God. 🙏 She's actually grown out of 99% of it. GOD BLESS SWEET CONNIE! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@rhianevans7189]

Hi Cathy I have been advised by my gp not to use that. I drink plenty of water that way as it dilutes the water in the bladder. They used to use potassium citrate to change the acid from the urine to alkaline so it doesn’t burn , but I haven’t seen it for yrs. I normally get the cystitis mixture as it’s got the same effect. But gout is fluid in the lower part of the legs and has nothing to do with acid. All the best. Rhian x
