I’m rather fond of baking soda. I put a 1/4 teaspoon in a couple of tablespoons of natural apple cider vinegar (to neutralize the acidity)...mixed with a bit of water (about a 1/2 cup...every day. Oh, and I top it off with a pinch of cayenne pepper. Just swig it down and it’ll give you health and energy benefits.

Baking soda is good for what ails ya. Good for brushin’ your teeth too.

Now, there's a man after me own heart, as my sweet little gray haired momma used to say. I have used baking soda for various tasks for many years. It's wonderful stuff. So's Bragg's. :o)

When you add vinegar to baking soda, you’re neutralizing the base (vinegar is the acid).

And the acid and base neutralize one another because it’s a chemical reaction turning baking soda and vinegar into water and carbon dioxide.

The cayenne might get your attention, or even trigger endorphins like capsaicin, but the rest is carbonated water.
