Advice on supplements after blood tests.

Sodium bicarbonate
Ive been taking half a tsp sodium bicarbonate for the past few weeks as I read an article suggesting it helps with inflammation and may be helpful. I'm happy to report a significant improvement in morning stiffness and turning over in bed throughout the night. As it tastes so vile I've been taking it

Dehydration and hypertension
We just moved to North Carolina recently, and with the heat comes dehydration which raises my blood pressure. I have tried low sodium power aid but that only seems to increase my blood pressure.
