Discover the Magic of Baking Soda

By on

I love the magic of baking soda!

I cook with it, clean with it and use it in my bath. Baking soda, a.k.a. sodium bicarbonate balances PH, therefore keeping a substance neither too acidic, or too alkaline. It is the perfect cleaning solution, air deodorizer and personal care product. It also allows me to use fewer chemicals in my home and on my body, and due to its multi- purposes it saves me from spending money on cleaners, whiteners and other health care products.

I no longer need to buy harsh chemicals to clean my home; I simply use baking soda and vinegar.

Why not buy a box or 10 for your home and get on the healthy, baking soda band wagon. Here are 15 ways to use it in your home.

  1. Use as an antacid- A great way to relieve heartburn and indigestion.
  2. Treat insect bites- Make a paste with a little water and place on bite.
  3. Bath Soak- Put 1 cup of baking soda in your bath. It is a great detoxifier and makes your skin soft.
  4. Disinfect cloths and sponges- Boil dish rags in boiling water and soda and sprinkle sponges with it.
  5. Clean coffee pot and tea pot stains- Add ¼ cup of baking soda with hot water to get rid of unwanted stains.
  6. Clean Floor- To remove dirt and grime from tile and unwaxed floors, use ½ cup soda and warm water.
  7. Boost your laundry- Put ½ cup in with your wash to get clothes cleaner.
  8. Clean your shower curtain- I use baking soda to get rid of the soap and mold scum that accumulates on the bottom of my shower curtain. Or simply put your shower curtain in the washing machine on a gentle cycle with ½ cup and your regular detergent.
  9. Deodorize your refrigerator- Leave an open box of baking soda in your fresh to freshen and deodorize the air.
  10. Deodorize sink drains- ¼ cup of baking soda with ½ cup of vinegar down your drains to clean and unblock drains.
  11. Freshen carpets- Sprinkle it over your carpets and leave overnight and vacuum in the morning to deodorize.
  12. Deodorize sneakers- Sprinkle soda in smelly sneakers when they are not being worn. Shake out excess before wearing them.
  13. Freshen stuffed animals- Sprinkle on children’s stuffed animals to freshen.
  14. Fruit and Vegetable Scrub- It’s a safe alternatives to clean vegetables.
  15. Extinguish Stove Grease Fires- For small cooking fires, turn off gas or heat and stand back while throwing handfuls of soda on flames. Always have a fire extinguisher handy.
