In this video, we’re going to talk about the dangers of using baking soda. Many people get relief from things like acid reflux when they consume baking soda, but this isn't the best long-term solution.
The stomach helps you digest proteins, absorb minerals, and kill pathogens. It’s designed to produce acid and should normally be very acidic with a pH between 1 and 3. Reflux occurs when your stomach acid becomes more alkaline.
Baking soda, also known as sodium bicarbonate, is very alkaline. When you consume baking soda for reflux, you may feel better temporarily, but you’re not addressing the root problem.This could actually cause your reflux to worsen over time.
Apple cider vinegar and betaine hydrochloride are much more effective remedies for acid reflux.
Here are some of the long-term baking soda side effects:
• Alkalizes the stomach (creating problems with protein digestion, mineral absorption, and the ability to kill pathogens)
• Depletes potassium reserve
• Decreased chlorides
• High levels of sodium
Baking soda can be used for toothpaste or used topically for bug bites and poison ivy. If you want to take baking soda orally, make sure that you aren't using it for a long period of time.

Thanks for watching! I hope this helps you better understand why baking soda may not be a good long-term solution for acid reflux. I'll see you in the next video.
I used baking soda to get rid of 6 tumors. It only took a couple of months. After that there was one really large 19cm tumor left that I had out with surgery. But when they got to it, they found no other cancers and hence no chemo or radiation. That was 14 years ago.
How much did you take each day? Where were your tumors?

I struggle with dehydration and mixing 1/4 to 1/2 tsp of baking soda in water makes me feel ALIVE. It's amazing the difference in hydration
You can achieve the same result by drinking water with a little diluted high quality sea salt.
@@svetlanadayal3310 that if the sea salt is pure are oceans are full of chemicals
I wonder how that effect is possible, since it should raise your salt levels which should dehydrate you more

My father is 82 years old, he has been taking baking soda everyday, since I can remember. My dad ride his bike whatever he goes, and never gets sick. I'm doing the same thing everday

How much quantity daily taking and why? Please share details.
I have been suffering with “asthma” and joint pain in my lower back, shoulders and wrists. All my conditions have inflammation in common. I recently had another mountain bike accident and had intense pain in my shoulder. I somehow happened upon some random video that suggested that baking soda helps with pain. I was like whatever and I took a small spoonful of baking soda and put it in my sparkling water and apple juice. The new drink fizzed and then I downed it……my asthma and joint pain disappeared…..I’m still in shock a week later that my asthma is gone as well as the inflammation in my joints.GONE.
Of course I’m taking much smaller doses now but I hate my asthma meds that make my tongue numb and hurt my gums. Truly unbelievable and I am soooo thankful for sodium bicarbonate
I know person that had stage 4 colon cancer. Nothing from the doctors worked and they sent her home to die. However after doing the baking soda protocol for only 2 weeks they could only find scare tissue. To this day years later she is still cancer free!

I have been using baking soda mixed with coconut oil, peppermint oil and myrrh oil as a toothpaste for more than a week now and I see a big difference. My teeth became whiter, my gum inflammation has decreased. Before I brush my teeth, I do oil pulling, I mix olive oil and cloves with garlic. It made a big difference. Also consume natural prebiotics, keffir, yoghurt, yakult etc.
So how do you know which one is helping your teeth get a the problem . … just saying !
How are your gums?
i guess baking soda makes ur teeth whiten and those oils helps inflammation of the gums, specially coconut oil.
Yakult is poison, organic coconut kefir for the win
Totally agree, apart from the end of your comment.
Either make your own probiotics from raw live milk, make your own live cultures for yogurt from fresh organic chilli or lemon and purchase high quality Kefir grain, to make your true Kefir.
The main ingredient in supermarket probiotics (especially Yakult & Danone) is ........ sugar.
They contain no live healthy bacteria, as they are destroyed through the pasteurisation process.
As most of us know; the more processed the food is, the more toxic it is to our bodies.
Baking soda has been very effective at solving my back pain. I read a few studies that indicated it is a very effective anti-inflammatory and helps arthritis pain.

I am being driven crazy by all these experts. I see a few video's, all saying something is really good for you, then I buy that product and start using it, only to see someone else telling me that the product is really bad for you.

@@JRenee-Sings I ruined my guts doing too much soda. Please listen to the doc. I should of used acv more.
I don’t care what this guy says, all I know is that since having my gallbladder removed in 2003 I’ve suffered years of acid reflux, endured painful bouts of gerd that would last for weeks, had countless procedures, barium meals, gastroscopies etc then I started using bicarbonate of soda my gerd has gone, completely not had it for 6 months.
My mom had gallbladder stone last 3 yrs ago. She’s afraid of surgery and we don’t have enough money to pay to the hospital for her surgery so I was trying to search some herbal medicines and she tried it maybe she drink the herb for 3 weeks and when she had her laboratory results again the stone vanished, her gallbladder is clear.

@@jamescatlover123 “real doctors” are even worse...
I take 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, dissolved in 2 tablespoons of Bragg's apple cider vinegar. Once it is dissolved, no more fizzing, I add 8 ounces of water. I drink this every morning. I do not have, nor did I have, acid reflux!! After taking this my blood pressure went down. I'm diabetic, my A1C went from 6.5 to just below 5. It is helping me.
Oh gawd thank you for your post! Honestly acv actually helped me but I never could get over the taste. My husband became ill and I been stree-eating and have gained 45 pounds onto my already overweight frame! But I’d vowed NEVER to go back to acv. But after reading your post, that statement just ain’t true!
I heard too that a gentleman on UA-cam used baking soda to lower his a1c. Crazy though, he added a little lemonade because he had heard adding lemon juice helped lol. Squeezing a lemon is not the same as adding lemonade silly man. Still, his a1c changed he said but as a diabetic I would think lemonade would spike his blood sugar at that moment.
@@nappyscribe1987 The Bragg ACV is not as bad tasting as others. My opinion. After a few days, the taste becomes good! It is important to add the water! I use a regular pint canning jar!! Lol After the ACV dissolves the Baking Soda, I add good clean water, NOT out of the faucet! Up to the shoulders of the jar, an inch and a half or so from the top. If you have a whole house filter or something like that, the water should be fine. Our water here in TN., smells like BLEACH!! I don't use it except to wash clothes and flush the toilet!! I have filters on my showers as well!
Hey Rita can you please tell me do I only have to drink it once a Day in the Morning ?

False. He did say use apple cider vinegar instead which is also a home remedy

My mother's 96 now i remember since little girl she uses to drink baking soda every day and i still give it to her now
Baking soda contains acetic acid
You're supposed to be taking bicarbonate of soda
I am 70 and use baking soda at one teaspoon daily or more and my health is perfect. When you remove acidity and live alkaline like I do even at my age I heal faster than I grow old. Question, is the 1 to 3 acidity because of our eating a lot of acidic foods, or is it natural. I drink my baking soda in water and have no health issues at all. This is my second year of doing this and I will never change back I feel so good.
I had acid reflux years ago. Doctors told me to eat smaller meals and elevate my bed when I sleep however the word of God says in James 5 verse 14 and 15...14 Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. 15 And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven. Bless Father God Yahweh in Lord Jesus Christ name. I went to the Elders of the church. They anointed me with oil in the name of the Lord and prayed the prayer of faith. I said with my mouth.. I receive my healing in Lord Jesus Christ name. I don't have acid reflux anymore. All praise and glory to Father God Yahweh and his precious Son... My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Thank you Lord Jesus Christ.

Do you take it every day?And on an empty stomach?
@@Србомбоница86 Not everyday. I'd suggest maybe 2-3 times a week so you're not overdoing it. Give your body time to get use to it and you'll definitely feel and see the difference.
When doctors find cures instead of just treatments I will listen to what they say! 21 years of living with Parkinson's disease!
If I were you I would find a doctor be it medical or homeopathic and talk him/her into giving me B12 shots intramuscularly. The B12 complex it is better for the body and absorbs better also. Most doctors don't know there is a huge difference between the different forms of B12 and always give the cianocobalomin which does not absorbs well. The one you want is methylcobalamin. Sorry but I can't spell those words. I am not a doctor and I am not prescribing anything just sharing what I have learned. B12 deficiency mimics several neurological disorders.

How to do it and how many times a day, a week?
I just do a tablespoon in some juice twice a day. It works for me.
I have around 2 teaspoons in the morning with about the same amount of lemon juice mixed into a small amount of warm water. I do this about 45 to 60 mins before i have breakfast. I also have the same thing around one hour before bed. I have not had stomach problems since i have been onto this regimen

Thanks!
Before this, have you ever had to rake Prilosec?
When I had gastritis from time to time, my stomach would get bloated and hurt. Taking a pinch of baking soda stirred in warm water for a few days got rid of the bloating. Worked every time. I tried medications but they would not work as fast. The recommended amount is 1/4 teaspoon per morning on empty stomach but I took way, way less than that because I didn’t want the side effects.
My mother took baking soda every day and just lived to be 94. She said it made her stomach sweet what ever that meant. But a teaspoon every day didn`t hurt her.
Looks like there is a missing link .. dr Berg line of reasoning for not taking it long term seem to contradict what you are doing
@@magicnier211 i can tell you one thing, anything i have tried and that is everything hurts my stomach and gets even more bloated only baking soda works. And my husband takes ACV and i works perfect for him. I don’t know what is with my body, im 39, 65kg but only my stomach is bloated last 10 years. When i 1 tea spoon soda 4-5 days with water a little before and 20-30 min after eating is is amazing! I’m just afraid to take it more that 3-4 days a month. I drink this one tea spoom for whole day for 3 meals before and after. With ACV i get more bloated, more reflux, heartburn and metal taste in my mouth.

I don't take it anymore for acid reflux because after I changed my diet and drastically reduced my intake of mass produced bread (poison) and sugar (high fructose corn syrup), I stopped having acid reflux. But before that I took Bob's Red Mill baking soda. It doesn't have aluminum like Arm & Hammer. When I reduced bread and sugar by about 95% weight began to literally fall off me. I've lost close to 40 lbs in less than a year just from reducing those 2 things, plus I had already quit sodas for the most part.
Arm & Hammer Baking Soda doesn't have aluminum either, only baking POWDER does. Don't be fooled by the so called "aluminum free" marketing ploy.

We all know that there are plenty of doctors who are C grade doctors, just passed the med school and don’t know much about diagnosing patients, thereby experimenting on them by prescribing wrong meds.
You Dr. Berg are not only knowledgeable but also very thorough about explaining GERD. Millions of people suffer everyday from this problem and if you ask the doctors they never give you a good explanation; instead they will prescribe Nexium, Prilosec etc.
I’m sure after this video people will finally know exactly why, where, and why they have acid reflux. I don’t have acid reflux anymore, but I used to have it but I never took any pharmaceutical drug for that. However many people in my family has this problem and I helped them to get better.
Thanks doc!!
Kindly help me with the solution please
I am over 65. After being on Keto for a while I started getting gout flare ups every couple of months. Regular doses of Baking soda helped but I think it made my stomach too alkaline so I could not digest proteins and fats. I started taking HCL with protein meals and it solved both my problems. I haven't had a gout attack in six months and I can digest proteins as long as I take HCL. Thanks to Dr. Berg.
Hey
That is why people have to take the recommended doses and may even need to take a little less. It's common sense.
Is your Keto diet heavy or moderate on red meat? Remember that ketones can compete with uric acid in the kidneys. Did you begin with the flares after starting Keto? What brand HCL are you using?
I am not that fond of red meat I have some maybe once every two weeks. My protein intake was not high at all. When I ate a meal with say 3 ozs of protein I would feel bloated and did not feel like it was digesting for 7 to 8 hrs. I take NOW Betaine HCL. I take one tablet for every 6 grams of protein so If I have a chicken breast I take about 3 or 4 capsules. The flares started when I was on keto so I gave it up for a while but started putting on weight so I found this solution and I am back on keto and can eat beef,shrimp etc. which previously would immeditely start the ache in my big toe.
You raise an interesting point. Whether BS or ACV is the solution to your digestion issues may depend on your diet. Every person's body is different as well, we don't all eat the same.
the medical science explained sounds nice, but doesn't beat the first 10 testimonies in the comments that i read, Sakky Sha nailed it! when is there going to be a video about the dangers of medication?
Yes I understand what you're saying but those testimonials could be false and you don't know how their diet is compared to actual studies

I measured the Ph of my family's drinking water and it was acidic so we decided to put the tip of a tea spoon in a gallon to make it neutral. I've been doing it for 3 years now. Is this ok to do?
Also, I used to suffer from acid reflux and bloating etc.. I never took medications but I would put the tip of a teaspoon in a 8oz glass and the symptoms would disappear in 30 minutes or less. I continued once daily after lunch because the symptoms had completely vanished. I eventually stopped because I no longer have symptoms. I am now 2 years free of symptoms without taking baking soda daily after lunch. So basically it healed my acid reflux. A comment would be greatly appreciated thanks

I used to have acid reflux. It disappeared completely after I stopped ingesting carbohydrates.

I'm healing from stage 4 congestive heart failure. I'm attempting to lose the need for pharmaceutical diuretics. I responded to a high salt diet very well (plus the keto and carnivore diets). In the hospital I was forced into a 3 month food fast because I was subjected to a low salt diet caused digestion problems ("The Salt Fix" book helped). I learned from my naturopathic connections that thiamine is the solution to congestive heart failure. The vitamin B1 corrected the heart difficulty. My cardiologist was stumped. Now, I'm attempting to take some weight off. Converting fat to CO2 and H2O is easy but the water likes to stay. I've started drinking water with salt and apple cider vinegar in it. It seems to be working as well as the strong diuretic the doctor gave me did. My weight is dropping. In generalities, what am I not seeing?
a month ago i consistently have pains on my lower stomach specifically on kidney area. i was worried i might have kidney stones i hurts when i touches it.. then i tried to use baking soda on my water. after drinking 3-4 hours later the pain disappears and it never came back until now. i read that baking soda can dissolve kidney stone build ups so i tried it and i think that helps me a lot and saves me in trouble until now baking soda is on my water. no side effects seen so far,. afterall drinking baking soda will not make ur stomach alkaline completely because it will only stay there for a moment until it was thrown to intestines and absorb by the body.
... unless you've had your gall bladder removed, it's job is to store bile which is stomach acid, then when you eat, it releases that bile into the stomach to process the food. Without the GB your Liver drips continually bile directly into the stomach wether there's food in it or not, without the full flush of bile the GB would have provided, your stomach no longer is able to fully process the vitamin and nutrients and fats as before, therefore you have a tendency to be low in Vit A, B12, D, K and processing some fats to name a few, it also affects the stomach acid balance too.

Thank you!! ACV is the best.
My biggest problem is the inability to gain weight. Thanks to your videos, I'm treating my gallbladder issues and hopefully the nutrients I'm giving my body through whole foods will get absorbed. I don't think we talk enough about weight gain and there are sooooo many people who struggle. Thank you for all your efforts, Dr. Berg! 😊

Joanne Reading yep. i have gastroparesis issues.
Same here. I need help gaining weight.
Right Im trying to gain weight too we need discussions on that ...agreed
Yes I have that issue too do not gain weight and too much in the skinny side.
I used to get bad indigestion and acid reflex almost daily. At night baking soda would nock it out. Once I started a little AVC and water in the mornings it all went away in a few days. No more indigestion at all, even if I eat chili. May not work for everyone, but it does for me and several people that I’ve told it to.
What serving of baking soda? Is it 1/4 tsp.? When you say at night, is it after dinner? How little ACV?
Suffering from reflux can be extremely debilitating so I drink 1tsp baking soda with half a lemon juice and water every day my life was a misery before so I'm sticking with it
Thanks a bunch for explaining it, Dr! I was taking baking soda every single day to reduce my reflux!
Thank you SO much for posting this. I had thrush, and people were telling me to take baking soda, and I did. Thankfully, a friend sent her nutritionist friend over, and she said "Stop the b.soda. It is buffering your already too buffered stomach. " I stopped it, and although it took a couple of years, I made a full recovery.
To all those who come here searching for answers, unless your saliva ph is around a 4, you could take b. soda for years and not notice you are making the stomach more alkaline until you get thrush, or GERD, or whatever - leaky gut, yup, I had that, too. I'm not looking to argue with anyone, just hope to help, and support Dr Berg's advice.
I had gurd for a while and was prescribed Prilosec. I also started eating yogurt and fiber. I stopped taking the Prilosec after a couple weeks but keep eating yogurt and fiber. I haven't had gurd since.
Thank you Dr. Berg. I had been taking SB for months, and wondered about my vitamin regime as well. I need my stomach acid while trying to live an alkaline life. You are the best.
Nice profile picture. HB in advance
I am someone who suffers from GERD, and everything you are explaining directly contradict everything my GI told me about my condition. I just don't know what else to think.
I keep trying to explain to my 82 year old mother she should try ACV, but she refuses saying it would upset her stomach. She's used baking soda for years, for her upset stomach. The Drs don't help, they just throw pills and treatments her way. Ugh.
mickyunit - maybe she would agree to try ACV capsules? My neighbor tried them and it's been working well for her. She takes one before a meal. Crazy how a little thing helps. She also takes one of Dr. Berg's Bile salts *after* that meal. I'm the "crazy nutrition neighbor," but we figured it wouldn't hurt to try! She's a trooper, and now on her 2nd bottles of both supplements.
I am 65 and I take HCL with any meals that are high in fat and protein. It helps a lot.

Tell her to try it out once.
Isaias Saravia Buendia thanks- she did and said she didn't like it. I couldn't explain it to her for her to understand. Gonna see if I can get her to watch this video.
BGAIL wow! Nice, I'll gave to give the pill version a try, didn't even think it would come that way?! She also just had gallbladder removed, do the bile salts may help as well?make Thanks
Thank You. I know 2 people who decreased the acid in their stomache's with prescription medication ordered by a Doctor and ended up with large tumor growth in their stomaches. The stomaches had to be removed, one chose the surgery and one did not, he now lives in a nursing home.
My doctor prescribed ibuprofen for my inflamed joints until i had an ulcer...she told me to eat with them and it'd be fine!! I eventually cured my inflammation with ginger and chili. I also take baking soda. I have about zero confidence in doctors.
Hi can you plz advise how you cured your inflammation. Mine is bad I can't even walk.
@@1salahudin hi, i looked up natural anti inflammatories, the 2 things on the list i had in the cupboard was ginger (tea bag form) and some dried chili (just the usual dried supermarket chili you find in the spice section. I made the ginger tea and sprinkled a few chili flakes into it. (not too hot to drink) The relief was instant. It worked for my sister too
Ive cut out dairy and use oat or nut milk (Though im still partial to cheese :)
The key to managing inflammation is diet, certain things are triggering and others prevent. If you type natural anti inflammatories into YT, there are quite a few good videos showing what to eat and what to avoid. But the ginger and chili are what worked for me and my sis. I hope it helps yours, it's miserable I know, God bless
Can we take regularly for months?
how much soda did you take daily? was it with warm water? morning or evening?
I love the way baking soda taste 😩
I take 1/2 teaspoon of potassium bicarbonate during my fasting window. It seems to be alkaline. I breakfast with a cocktail of ACV, juice of lime and lemon .
In India baking soda has been used for ages. It is used in idlo, dosa and other food items. People have lived long without any other ailments. ENO salt a combination of citric acid and sodium bicarbonate is best cure for acidity & constipation.
Baking soda is super I have been taking it everyday for last 7 years at night before bedtime
Has been very good for me
I always have a quarter to half a teaspoon with lemon juice intermittently, i make sure the baking soda is aluminium free, had problem with kidneys after taking Sulphursalazine for RA.
I m also suffering in acid reflux ....what I do I don't understand....help me🙏
Here's a thought. I would imagine that taking baking soda would neutralize the acid in stomach and esophagus giving relief however since human body functions are designed in a way to reach for balance (stasis?) this (taking soda) should trigger the stomach to produce more acid and perhaps achieve the desirable pH for digestion.
Thought the Same way, because I read that Taking Soda will trigger the Stomach to increase acid production so that it is not recommanded for neutralising reflux. But now after this video I think it is even more useful than before, because it will help to increase the acid level after the stomach got triggered with soda.
And what we learned from the Video is that we Want to increase the acid Level (when having reflux).
It also makes sence because I read that eating easy digestable flour bread things helps to neutralize acid.
But on the other Hand it will trigger reflux (now obviously because it neutralizes acid-> and we need a high acid level to dont have reflux).
People which dont eat sugars and bread say that they got rid in the Long Term of reflux.
Conclusion: now it makes even More sence why it is recommanded to dont eat flour things to get rid of reflux while it helps during reflux.
I used to take Baking soda first thing in the morning for my stomach & it help me more than anything but I only drink for few days & only drink when my stomach act up

You have been taking it for what reason?
Good for you and I hope you stay healthy. I guess it all depends on the rest of your diet and lifestyle and dosage of Bicarb relative thereto, but I think the theory Dr Berg expounds is good; the stomach needs to be acidic. The overall health is key. Apple cider vinegar-live-is in folk terms, at least a pretty good all rounder...Stay well.
I have to agree with him on this video, I was taking one teaspoon of baking soda every morning because I wanted a high alkaline PH, the problem was, it was not short term. I tried to donate blood one day, and was refused, because my BP was 140/110, I was always 120/80. I immediately stopped the baking soda, I am now back to normal 120/80 and lower, two weeks later I was able to donate again. As they always say, too much of anything is not always better.

You obviously did not watch this video in its Entirety.
Your literally repeating what the video said as if its a counter point lol
Good video but from my experience some cases of advanced ulcers or stomach cancer, apple cider vinegar "alone" can further irritate the condition. That is because the mucosal layer and epithelial layers have been compromised and any acid on the raw tissue can cause further aggravation and pain. This is where 5 percent solution of baking soda several times a day on an empty stomach for a short time can be very helpful. The problem usually arises from a combination of stress, poor diet and/or a low salt diet. You need iodine, zinc, sodium chloride, etc., to make stomach acid. A common scenario is stress with a diet of sweets and grain/flour products. The phytates in the grains generally prevent mineral absorption especially zinc. Zinc is tied directly to the metabolic syndrome including low stomach acid and digestive enzyme production, diarrhea, insomnia, depression, vision, cardiovascular disorders, diabetes, and cancer. Supplementing with zinc and niacin can help restart the endocrine system and alleviate numerous metabolic conditions. This is because zinc is instrumental in setting up the metabolic framework to help facilitate mineral absorption and to counter the phytate and lectin problems. It's best to avoid sugars and grains.
We have a DRUG problem in the US .. any town which has several pharmacies .. as in Walmart etc. has a vested interest in selling their Drugs. There is no one in the Pharmacy business making $Money (another drug) off of simple things like Baking Soda or Apple Cider Vinegar. If you are going to put anything in your body (including ice cream, flesh foods, dairy, sugar, or wheat products .. one should carefully consider what it will end up doing to your body. Common Sense is an uncommon thing in an "educated" society. Every one of us is at various stages of personal education / experience. This video explanation is specific to a very narrow issue (acid re-flux). I love ice cream .. and can give you many memories of eating stuff with others who are celebrating something like Christmas or Thanksgiving .. a table packed full of very "rich" sugar infused foods. Wheat and Pasta are also acid forming. Flesh Foods are acid forming. What I mean by an "acid condition" is not focusing upon the stomach or the blood .. but upon the whole body. Take ph strips and dip it in your Urine .. read that number .. jot it down keeping a personal "medical record" about your own health. Notice changes when you eliminate the acid causing foods and start consuming a more alkaline based diet. Let me give you a couple simple ways to show you the high value of using Baking Soda in two very different situations. Think about a battery in your car .. it contains Battery Acid. Corrosion builds up on the terminals and then one day you discover you can't start your car .. until you remove the corrosion. You can make a solution of Baking Soda in water and drip it on the battery terminals and soon the corrosion will be gone. You can also add Baking Soda to grease and spread it on the terminals and keep acid from building up. Every year when tomato season comes around .. I like to eat a lot of tomatoes (which are acidic) .. then sometimes I end up with a painful canker sore that left alone would take some time to go away .. I found that by dipping my finger in some Baking Soda and putting it on the Canker Sore .. that it would go away within a matter of a few hours! I believe that using Baking Soda as an infusion .. high enema style .. would work wonders on some people who have irritable bowl syndrome. Candida is a fungus living on the sugars (acid condition) of the body.
"Sugar is a pH-neutral substance, meaning that its pH value is usually more or less than 7, but close. However, raw and unprocessed sugar is slightly basic in nature, while white sugar and brown sugar are both slightly acidic."
"How do you get rid of acid in the body?" "Get into the habit of drinking a glass of lukewarm water with lemon on an empty stomach every day (citric acid is great at alkalizing, despite being acidic). Increase the amount of fruits and vegetables you eat, especially raw, green veggies. Avoid eating refined foods such as sugar and flour."
"What makes your body more acidic?" "A diet that includes too many acid-producing foods, such as protein or sugar, can cause acidity in your urine as well as other negative health effects. ... This is because bones contain calcium, which your body uses to restore your blood's pH balance when it becomes too acidic. May 17, 2017"
"Here is why acid is so bad. Think about what acid does. Acid can burn a hole through metal, and if it can do that to metal, think about what that’s doing inside your body, to your digestive system, your joints and muscles, and your cardiovascular system.
You see, the problem is the Standard American Diet (aka SAD diet) is pumping us up with damaging acids EVERY SINGLE DAY like sugar, gluten, processed foods, coffee, dairy, meat, carbonated water, artificial sweeteners, soda, and the list goes on…"
USE COMMON SENSE .. test your response .. a little goes a long way .. start small and grow with experience. If you lack Common Sense .. then go see your family doctor .. but in the end .. it's all your decision and no one else! Even the Doctor cannot make your choices.
Avoiding grains, are you serious! Grains are part of a healthy diet. You just have to be balanced and avoid grains that have been processed. Instead eat grains and grain products that are organic. Raw sugar in a moderate amount or honey I a moderate amount is healthy. Cutting out all grains is totally unnecessary and can be unhealthy. While in may cut out sugar it can be safely consumed by eating fruits and vegetables.

+Dr. Berg Thanks for the video Dr. Berg. I appreciate a doctor on UA-cam giving accurate educational information. I say stress this because to those doubters out there I am quite confident that what you're saying is absolutely correct. I not only learned all of this basic chemistry and biology back in school, as could anyone today with access to a library or the internet, but also was diagnosed with GERD in the mid 90's when I was just in high school. A nurse also taught me the dangers of using baking soda for this too often and using too much. So I am just telling those who automatically do not trust doctors that this one is being absolutely trustworthy. I would love a doctor like you to make a video going over skin care routines for the different types of skin and tell us what products and ingredients in products we should and shouldn't be using for each and in general because one of my most aggravating health complaints is my skin issues. I struggle with cystic acne on my chin, hyperpigmentation on my forehead and cheeks, dry skin all over my body and this is on top of dealing with Juvenile onset Rheumatoid Arthritis. It would be great to have a doctor to do a thorough lecture on skin care, anti aging, and all the different products rather than just hearing from makeup gurus. Thanks.

Cystic acne can be a result of too much estrogen. I do not know your age but you may need HRT. A good probiotic can help with skin health. Sauerkraut, grass-fed yogurt, Garden of Life brand Primal defense. Also, drinking bentonite clay water and using the same clay in masque form will do wonders. Fast sugar.

I just started taking baking soda 2 days ago, bought two boxes and plan to take every day.
Baking soda cured my gout the first time 20 years ago in three days. I found home remedy on some obscure forum on the internet. The doctor wrote me a prescription but I did not like the side effects. Fast forward 15 years and my fibromyalgia got really really bad the pain was just like gout in every joint and I suffered for a month barely able to move. The doctor told me all this is your new normal and I was like oh hell no so when I went home I started thinking what is different what is wrong and I thought it every joint feels like my toe did back years ago.
This time it took seven days but it cured that horrible pain and went back to my normal pain. Which I will add for years ago is a lot better thanks to Keto. But I do take baking soda on an empty stomach a few times a month.

TY for making this video. I was watching another video about the benefits of drinking baking soda and water every day on an empty stomach, and your video provided the right insight and warnings of what would happen if you misuse baking soda and water by ingesting too much. It is always good to know both sides of the story so that a person can make an informed decision before taking "home remedies". I don't happen to have any of the listed health issues that the video suggested that baking soda and water would cure, so I realized after watching your video (it just so happened to automatically play after the other video I mentioned) that by drinking baking soda and water as a preventative measure would probably do more harm than good by causing health problems that I didn't to begin with.

Of the 740 patients in the study cohort, 376 received standard care plus sodium bicarbonate, and the remaining 364 patients, who served as the control group, received standard care alone.
"The majority of patients were CKD 3b and 4 patients, which is pretty much the kind of patients that most nephrologists see in community practice," Bellasi reported.
Mean age in the study cohort was 67.8 years, mean baseline creatinine clearance was 30 mL/min, and mean serum bicarbonate concentration was approximately 21.5 mmol/L.
At study entry, mean estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 33.4 mL/min per 1.73 m² in the sodium bicarbonate group and 36.9 mL/min per 1.73 m² in the control group.
Target Bicarbonate
Target serum bicarbonate levels in the treatment group ranged from 24 to 28 mmol/L (metabolic acidosis is defined as levels below 22 mmol/L). To achieve target levels, the average dose of sodium bicarbonate was about 6 g/day, which translates to approximately 1.5 g/day of elemental sodium. This meant that patients in the treatment group took four to seven pills twice daily, which is a significant pill burden, Bellasi acknowledged.
At a mean follow-up of 32.9 months, "those randomized to sodium bicarbonate had a much better renal prognosis than those randomized to standard of care," he reported.
Of the 87 patients whose serum creatinine doubled during the study period, significantly fewer were in the treatment group than in the control group (25 vs 62; hazard ratio [HR], 0.36; P < .001).
Val, could you translate that so we can understand..thanks
Baking soda can be a big help in keeping the body alkalized if you have cancer. A necessary part of a successful treatment program. To keep a urine pH of 7.5 to 8.0 pH 1/2 to 1 tsp once or twice a day in 1/2 to 1 glass of water will probably be needed.

LOL, they are simply two MEN with opinions and the term or title SCHOLAR is meaningless. Same with these Health EXPERTS. Opinions are not TRUTH, they are ideas and thoughts you may have about something......Peace
Kazzana - Absolutely! Agreed!
Dr. Berg is right on. You can't digest your food if your stomach is not acidic enough. Baking soda may have instant relief from heartburn, but it's only a bandage fix. Apple cider vinegar is extremely acidic and helps to digest our food. As Dr. Berg mentions, heartburn is caused by low acidic levels. As soon as you drink a few tablespoons of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water, heartburn is instantly relieved and our stomachs can continue to digest and process food.
I just researched that bit, hundreds of medical sites disagree - saying heartburn is caused by EXCESSIVE ACID. And that makes sense since ACID BURNS AND DISSOLVES everything that goes in.
This is like saying "if you're standing on embers, then you're on fire, get more fire to put out the fire"
@@Gyrannon I don't know what medical sites you looked at and whether or not they were authentic, but my experience is whenever I have heartburn, apple cider vinegar instantly relieves it. I believe that's because our stomach is not acidic enough and it triggers the stomach sphincter to open allowing the acid in the stomach to move up the esophagus. The high acid content in the stomach keeps the sphincter closed when we are not eating.
Glad you cleared that up. You should NOT consume it for a LONG time period. I just started drinking baking soda with lemon in the morning. Another expert suggested it. But he only recommended it for 5 days period. I also have apple cider vinegar with lemon and cinnamon which I will take at night.
I do the exact same thing
Once the lemon acid neutralize the baking soda, and vice versa??
❣*Question*: Why does the lack of acid causes the opening of the valve??❣
It senses acid. If it senses too low it opens up. I have GERD and mine doesn't work very well, it's quite complicated. There might be other signaling involved I'm not sure but having low PH acid (as opposed to the western medical explanation of having too much stomach acid) causes the valve to open too much. I think there must be an inverse relationship between what you put in to your body, and your body's ability to produce a particular ph of acid. Ideally lots of alkaline foods will let your body produce a strong acid, while lots of acidic foods make it very hard for your body to produce a good acid, because the rest of the body being too acidic already somehow makes it impossible. Another factor is your gut bacteria, which have a large effect on the stomach acid as well.
A lack of food can cause reflux. In my observation eating a meal that large and has fried food prepared in vegetable oil/shortening and chili pepper spices causes it. A fried chicken with too much oil served with gravy made of shortening.
@@aeridyne From what I have read your body uses the chloride ion from the salt you consume to make the hydrochloric acid for your stomach.
I've never had acid reflex in my life. I'm a 30-year-old man, and I've been using baking soda once or twice a week mixed with apple cider vinegar and clean filtered water for a decades. My family actually continued this practice learned in our home country. Obviously there is instructions following with the using of this. I take it first thing in the morning on an empty stomach and I don't eat anything for a few hours even after. It has improved my digestion, maneuvers the bowels, it has cleaned my digestive track and kidneys, and pushed things out of my body that have been stuck for years. The stomach acid levels correct it self through out the day… Considering, I also drink apple cider vinegar between and sometimes with meals. I usually follow a fasting period with this regimen. What are your thoughts on this?...
And if, I can add. It has kept my skin and body feeling and looking really young and rejuvenating. I use baking soda for everything.
I also want to add that this... -It has helped push out toxins, heavy metals, and overall help with detox.
I’ve been doing ACV, lemon & baking soda in water the past few mornings for some health issues, I’ve heard good things about it. I feel fine after. I practice intermittent fasting so I’m not eating right after. I feel fine and don’t see the harm in it.

Baking soda need add to very hot water and mix, then add cool water and drink slowly .Start with 1/3 tsp on 200 mil
If u want to avoid damaging stomach simply place baking soda in an enteric coated capsule. It will skip the stomach and break down in the small intestine which is not alkaline. U can also get apple cider vinegar powder to take it together.
There is nothing magical about apple cider vinegar, other than it's use as a fad cure-all.
@@withamarshview1436 Ok arm chair scientist what the heck you are talking about. Have you even tried it. Its not a cure all but it helps with many things. I took for 2 months and lowered my cholesterol quickly even better than the pills I took prior, cleared my skin and improved my digestion.
Interesting...when I take both ACV and baking sofa together (for occasional GERD), I get instant relief.
Baking soda taken 2 or more hours before a meal or 2 or more hours after a meal works wonders. .. ACV taken right before, during or directly after a meal works wonders.
I divide 3 servings over the day.
At breakfast I just sprinkle some on my fried egg, and drink a glass of roosvicee strawberry syrup with mineral water, one teaspoon organic apple vinegar with the mother.
Then with my lunch I sprinkle some on it, and also dinner, and then again the glass of roosvicee strawberry syrup with mineral water, one teaspoon organic apple vinegar with the mother.
Then i had all in all about half a teaspoon divided through the day.
What does it matter how you ingest something, it all ends up in the same stomach.
That stuff is salty, and nasty in water, why torture yourself, just use it as salt, use it on savory foods.
Wow Thats an awesome idea...i never thougt to use it on food...it is salty....thanks...i will try this

How much per day do you use in water? Thank you.
@@qso3566 I use just a teaspoon.
There’s this doctor who practices and recommends drinking little baking soda about a third of teaspoon in a big glass of water before bedtime daily , what’s your take on that ?
