Notes

Only consume baking soda drinks 1–2 times per week to avoid overuse.

Do not exceed ½ teaspoon of baking soda per serving.

Always fully dissolve baking soda in water before consuming.

People with kidney issues, high blood pressure, or on medication should consult a doctor before use.

In baking, baking soda acts as a natural leavening agent, helping dough rise and improving texture.

Baking soda should only be used on hair once per week to prevent dryness.
