I decided to post this on my blog since there seems to be so much illness around right now--including my husband who won't follow my advice. 😣.
I have been using baking soda whenever I begin to feel a little under the weather for the past couple of years. I am impressed and have told many about it, most of whom laugh at me or discount it as an old wives' tale. I say what can it hurt and what if it helps? It has kept me from getting really sick every time I thought I was coming down with something so I thought there might be somebody out there who would want to try it. I am amazed at the number of people who will try drugs recommended by doctors that list many side effects, but won't try home remedies!
This formula was published on the back of the Arm & Hammer Baking Soda package in 1925.
Take 1/2 tsp. soda dissolved in a glass of water 6 times the first day, 4 times the second day, 2 times the third day and each morning thereafter until symptoms are gone.
I've read that one of the reasons we get sick is because our body gets acidic. Germs grow in an acidic environments so alkalinizing our bodies with baking soda may have the possibility of helping. I would love to hear if you try this and it helps you. Maybe if I get enough confirmations others will believe me and at least try it.😀
