Pool chemical is Sodium Carbonate, NOT sodium bicarbonate. Big difference as the bicarbonate is a buffer whereas the carbonate is much more alkaline and should NOT be ingested.

Arm and Hammer sells a 12 pound bag of pure baking soda, sold in the pool area, that they advertise on the bag is for pools, laundry, a scrub, etc. It is pure baking soda.
