In fact sodium bicarbonate can help with food intolerances and allergies. We have obtained references to a doctor who claims to do exactly this with Bicarbonate and I believe its included in the Bicarbonate book. However , bicarbonate should not be taken with meals, its best to wait 1-2 hours after a meal….bedtime should be ok.

But please understand the bicarbonate may not be a good long term solution…it won’t allow you to continue on a diet that is problematic without concern. It is meant to “jump start” your body toward alkalinization, but not to maintain it except in special or extreme circumstances. You should still stay away from the offending foods and gear your diet to the more alkaline condition.

I wondered if sodium bicarbonate could help with food intolerances (i.e. wheat, corn, dairy, eggs) and if it could be taken along with an offending food or perhaps at night on an empty stomach. Thanks for any ideas you may have.

Sodium bicarbonate would absolutely help your friend. Read about sodium bicarbonat’s use in cancer in the e-book available here: http://publications.imva.info/index.php/e-books/sodium-bicarbonate-rich-man-s-poor-man-s-cancer-treatment-e-book.html

Your friend would also benefit from using magnesium oil and the other supplements Dr. Sircus recommends for cancer treatment.

Its best to be very honest with your husband and not “sneak” substances on him. Try to educate him on the benefits of baking soda and magnesium in Dr. Sircus’ protocol. This is such a difficult situation when the s.o. doesn’t agree.

Both of you might benefit greatly by more regular use of magnesium and is your husband on any probiotics? These might help to restore the normal flora of his digestive tract and help to decrease the episodes of vomiting. Make sure there is no other disease process going on that might be causing this. LL’s magnetic clay co . can provide an excellent probiotic (Prescript Assist) along with edible clay, as well as magnesium oil, which is better than any oral form of magnesium. http://www.magneticclay.com/

I am actually asking for my husband who had osteomyelitis( spine infection) and was on IV antobiotics for 6 months in 2005. Now he has violent vomitting episodes and terrible acid reflux. He’s taking 40 mg Prilosec daily and seems to be getting worse! I would love for him to get off the prilosec! But he refuses to take baking soda! His P/H is very acidic. Mine is alkaline. Should I sneak some in his water? I have before and he got better but refuses to believe it was the soda. I,m very scared for him!!!..;(

I read all the comments and deeply appreciate your work and the comments of the patients.
God bless us all!

Sodium Bicarbonate can help with both passing the stones and with the pain. Many people also recommend the necessity of magnesium in treating and preventing kidney stones. Stones usually form in magnesium deficient people. Another remedy that many have been helped by is the use of lemon juice (fresh)and olive oil in water: Mix 2 oz of olive oil and 2 oz of lemon juice, drink it straight down and follow with a large glass of water at the first sign of stone pain. The stone(s) will pass within 24 hours. This is the recommendation from Earth Clinic.

But make sure your magnesium levels are up to par no matter which you try…..mag will also help with the pain.

It depends on how your new kidney is functioning at this point. I”ve also had a transplant (April, 2011) and I use sodium bicarbonate fairly regularly with my MD’s knowledge and consent. You should still attempt to keep your pH in the alkaline range and check your pH daily to see how it runs. The diet you are on is good. If you are in alkaline range on a regular basis there may be no need to take bicarbonate daily, better to stay alkaline with diet. But like I said , it would also depend on your kidney function and how well you are excreting acids. And yes, the bicarb could interact with the immunesuppressant drugs you are probably taking….so checkkwith your doctor on that! Congratulations on your transplant!!

I use a lot of home remedies and baking soda is one of them. I have kidney stones, and the pain that comes with them. I was told to use 1/2 tsp for the pain. Pressingly enough it works, but, is it doing anything about the stones itself, or is it doing more damage then good? I’ve tried Chanca Piedra ” stone breaker”, but it didn’t work. Frankly is tasted like strong tea with lots of sugar. So far baking soda seems to ease the pain and I can finely get some sleep. My only concern is if the baking soda is doing anything about the stones itself or just the pain? Thank you for any info you can give me on this matter.
