Pure Sodium Bicarbonate

Sodium Bicarbonate (NaHCO₃), commonly known as baking soda, is a naturally occurring alkaline compound with a long history of traditional use in health, household, and culinary applications. It is one of the most widely used and versatile compounds in traditional wellness practice, valued for its alkalising properties and broad range of applications. This is food grade Sodium Bicarbonate — pure, additive-free, and suitable for internal and external use.

Traditional & Household Uses

Sodium Bicarbonate has a long traditional history of use as a digestive antacid. Its naturally alkaline pH neutralises excess gastric acid, making it a classic traditional remedy for occasional digestive discomfort and heartburn.
