Hello newbie56,

This link is to a research report from 2009. The use of baking soda has been discussed occasionally on this site but if you are looking for more specific guidance it would be advisable to speak with your doctor. Everyone is different and your health professional is best placed to take all of your medical factors into consideration.

Hi, I’ve taken it for years. It has definitely helped me. It helps keep ph more alkaline. The more acidic your ph is, the harder it is on your kidneys

Hello,

I've just read it. It outlines a remedy for certain people with CKD who have abnormal CO2 blood values. The article does not recommend taking bicarbonate as a preventive, only as a treatment.

I recently put a thread up about this ( check out the links) seems ... not too much is still known about it - I personally take it every other day ...
