11 Amazing Uses of Baking Soda: Miraculous Healing and Cleansing

 Written by Drew Canole

Radical Cancer Prevention And Possible Therapy For You Or Someone You Love. It’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month And We Wanted To Share With You A Blog On Fitlife That Has Almost Had 300k Shares So Far!
There is a reason so many people are passing this info onto the people they love, and we wanted to take this Saturday and extend upon what has already been posted and is spreading like a wild fire of love and vibrant energy Fitlifer.

If you’ve ever researched natural cures, holistic home remedies, or taken some health advice from your grandmother, chances are Apple Cider Vinegar, Lemon, Honey AND ALUMINUM FREE BAKING SODA was a popular ingredient in your discoveries.  From age old tricks to modern applications, baking soda, or Sodium Bicarbonate, has been touted as having miraculous uses both inside and outside of your die, and plenty of people seem to agree.  I’ve read manuscripts and lab logs covering this topic and now even our own blog and our community are asking me a TON of questions.
As we’ve discussed, baking soda is Sodium Bicarbonate (NaHCO3), and is created synthetically, and naturally by our planet, AND even in our bodies.  The ancient Egyptians used baking soda discovered at the bottoms of riverbeds to create glass and pottery.  The Romans used baking soda as a leavening agent in food.  The REAL magic takes place in our bodies.  Sodium Bicarbonate is a compound with an extremely high pH.  When mixed with an acid, carbon dioxide is released.  Why is that so special?  (keep reading.)
The Bicarbonate that our body produces (in our saliva, in our kidneys) is used to regulate the body’s pH.  My fellow Fitlifers, as juicing enthusiasts, and purveyors of health, happiness and the beautiful truth, by now you’ve learned, like me, the importance of keeping our bodies in an alkaline state.
“All normal cells have an absolute requirement for oxygen, but cancer cells can live without oxygen – a rule without exception. “Deprive a cell 35% of its oxygen for 48 hours and it may become cancerous.” – Biochemist Otto Heinrich Warburg
Dr. Warburg has made it clear that the root cause of cancer is oxygen deficiency, which creates an acidic state in the human body. Dr Warburg also discovered that cancer cells are anaerobic (do not breathe oxygen) and cannot survive in the presence of high levels of oxygen, as found in an alkaline state.

Hundreds of studies have concluded that having an acidic body can directly be responsible for thousands of serious diseases.  The list of these tragic ailments goes on forever, including serious afflictions such as kidney disease, metabolic acidosis, and many types of cancer.
So it only makes sense that a non-toxic compound with an extremely high pH has been used by natural healers and doctors alike, in conjunction with modern medicine, to prevent, treat, and sometimes REVERSE the tragic effects we experience in our toxic, acidic environments (I’m actually talking about our bodies.)
So I wanted to put together 11 powerful uses of baking soda.  Baking soda is non-toxic, but DO make sure you purchase the Aluminum free baking soda, and always consult your physician. (ALWAYS MAKE SURE IT’S ALUMINUM FREE)
Antacid for Heartburn – After eating too fast, or something spicy or acidic, our stomach acid can have unpredictable reactions, and splash up into our esophagus.  A teaspoon of baking soda in 250 ml of water can help neutralize and calm your heartburn.

Make a Bath Soak – I’ve said it a thousand times.  We are what we ABSORB.  A baking soda bath can help alkalize and detoxify your skin, and other areas of your body that you don’t pay much attention to.  You can mix about 5 tablespoons of baking soda into your full bath tub and enjoy a detoxifying soak.
Clean Baby Clothes – Several detergents contain heavy metals and other toxins.  The stain removing and odor fighting agents are often extremely acidic and harmful to human skin, especially toddlers and children.  Mix 1 tablespoon of baking soda with one cup of water and use to scrub out those beet juice stains!

Vegetable and Fruit Scrubbing – Even though we’ve talked about the benefits of shopping at organic farmers and markets, you still want to clean your fruits and vegetables before eating them.  Unless you enjoy soap flavored salads, I wouldn’t recommend soaping your produce.  You can scrub each vegetable or fruit with baking soda instead.
Deodorize Shoes – Instead of spraying air fresheners from poisonous aerosol cans into your shoes, enabling the soles of your feet to absorb harmful chemicals, you can sprinkle in some baking soda.  
Treat Bug Bites – Remember when we were kids and we’d run and play from sun-up to sun-down, and even beyond?  Remember when the older kids stayed out even later?  Like even AFTER the street lights came on?  Man, they were rebels.  They also got bit up like crazy by mosquitos, but they’d be out the next night just the same.  They knew something I didn’t:  they rubbed toothpaste on their insect bites. It was the baking soda inside that treated and reduced the itching.

Under-Arm Deodorant – I’ve talked about this before, but in case you haven’t heard, there are plenty of people “up-in-arms” (get it?) about the ingredients in their deodorant or anti-perspirants.   Harmful chemicals like aluminum have overwhelmingly been linked to cancer.  Try sprinkling some baking soda under there instead of clogging your pores with toxins.
Toothpaste – We talked about the horrific side effects of a lifelong fluoride poisoning.  You can bypass that tragedy by mixing 1 teaspoon of baking soda with 1 teaspoon of water and using as toothpaste.

Apple Cider Vinegar and Baking Soda Tonic – We’ve talked about the incredible benefits of RAW, ORGANIC apple cider vinegar, like regulating the probiotics in your gut, boosting immunity etc.  Mixing it with baking soda counter-acts the acidity of the ACV, making it easier on digestion.  Mix 1 tablespoon of ACV, with 1 teaspoon of baking soda, into 1 tall glass of water.
Spray on Garden Plants – There’s a ton of debate about pesticides and their harmful effects on us and our environment.  Well, there is no debate.  They are terrible.  There is, however, some debate about mold, worms, and other insects on our produce.  Should we “let them be” or find a non-toxic way to “take care of them?”  If you take the second route, baking soda may be helpful.  Dilute 4 teaspoons of baking soda with 1 gallon of water and gently mist onto your plants.  This will discourage bugs and fungi from invading your food.

Baking-Soda-And-Lemon-Juice

PREVENT AND TREAT CANCER WITH A BAKING SODA & LEMON TONIC!  Yes, I said it, and NO, I don’t regret it.  The comments from the lovely, incredible, wonderful people in this community have been overwhelming.  
SEVERAL cancer survivors have commented on this very blog, and thousands around the world are sharing their incredible stories about the Good fight.  Patients everywhere, with the consent of their physicians, are warding off and destroying cancer with nutritious and alkalizing compounds like lemon and baking soda.  Several studies suggest that cancer can not thrive or even survive when our bodies are in the pH balance.  
Let’s keep it there, shall we?  Try mixing 1 teaspoon of baking soda with half a lemon into 8 ounces of purified water.  Drink this first thing in the morning like I do, and make it a part of your lifestyle.  I certainly noticed a change in my digestion, appetite, and general immunity after making this a habit.

Six natural remedies for lowering blood pressure fast

lowerblood
High blood pressure is no longer just an affliction of the elderly, as more than one-third of young people between the ages of 16 and 34 are now said to suffer from some form of hypertension. And a recent study out of California revealed that, if left unchecked, this cardiovascular malady, even in its mild form, can lead to premature aging and brain damage

The conventional solution to this growing health epidemic is to simply take more blood pressure medications like angiotensin-receptor blockers, which have been scientifically linked to causing cancer and other serious health problems. But the alternative route, which should really just be called the common-sense route, is to eat more foods and herbs that naturally lower blood pressure without causing any harmful side effects.
Here are six natural and quick remedies that will help you keep your blood pressure in check, and avoid the long-term health pitfalls associated with prolonged hypertension:

1) Raw almonds. Eating just a handful of truly raw almonds every day can make a significant difference in keeping your blood pressure levels in check. A key component of the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension Diet, also known as DASH, raw almonds are rich in monounsaturated fats, which have been scientifically proven to help lower blood cholesterol levels, reduce arterial inflammation, and ultimately lower blood pressure levels.

Even though they are high in fat and calories, almonds also help promote weight loss and the building of lean muscle mass, which means they naturally promote healthy circulation. When eaten in conjunction with other blood pressure-lowering nuts like walnuts, almonds are one of the most powerful cardiovascular “superfoods” available.

2) Cayenne pepper. Arguably one of the fastest foods to lower blood pressure, cayenne pepper is a powerful vasodilator, which means it helps expand blood vessels and improve blood flow. This effect naturally lowers blood pressure levels by increasing the rate at which blood flows throughout the circulatory system, which in turn takes some of the pressure off arterial walls.
Mixing one or two teaspoons of cayenne pepper in either warm water or tea with both honey and aloe vera is a powerful homemade remedy for alleviating hypertension. If this beverage is too spicy for your tastes, taking cayenne pepper capsule supplements is another great option for lowering blood pressure naturally.

3) Coconut water. Rich in potassium, electrolytes, and other important nutrients, coconut water has been shown to help significantly lower blood pressure levels in most of the people that drink it. A recent study published in the West Indian Medical Journal found that drinking coconut water helped 71 percent of participants achieve a significant reduction in systolic pressure, and 29 percent of participants achieve a significant reduction in diastolic pressure. The results were even more amplified when participants drank both coconut water and mauby, a tropical drink made from buckthorn tree bark.

4) Raw cacao. Rich in flavonoids and other anti-inflammatory nutrients, raw cacao is another food-based weapon against hypertension that you will want to keep readily stocked in your health arsenal. Not only do the flavonoids in cacao function as adaptogens to help the body better deal with stress, which is a common cause of hypertension, but they also help regulate stress hormone levels throughout the body, which play a critical role in blood pressure regulation.
Numerous studies have also found that cacao flavonoids demonstrably reduce blood pressure levels upon consumption, resulting in an average blood pressure reduction of 4.7/2.8 millimeters of mercury (mmHg). Cacao flavonoids also help protect the body against stroke and heart disease, which are commonly linked to high blood pressure.

5) Turmeric. Modern science is just barely hitting the tip of the iceberg concerning the superfood capacity of turmeric, also commonly known as curcumin. But one of the herb’s already known benefits concerns its abilities to significantly decrease inflammation throughout the body, which is a primary cause of high cholesterol and even high blood pressure. By actively reducing inflammation, turmeric helps improve cardiovascular function and maintain healthy blood flow.
When taken alongside non-irradiated black pepper, the primary active ingredient of which is piperine, turmeric is a powerhouse at loosening up blood vessels and clearing the buildup that often leads to high blood pressure. Turmeric is also a natural blood thinner, which is another way this powerful herb aids in the fight against hypertension.

6) Garlic. A 2010 study out of Australia found that garlic is another powerful food-based medicine that naturally lowers cholesterol levels and reduces blood pressure. Taking garlic tablets or capsule supplements is a great way to regularly consume the herb in high enough amounts to derive significant benefits.

Chinese Plant Compound Wipes Out Cancer in 40 Days, Says New Research

lei_zps1559cd97
A little-known plant with a truly bizarre name is now making headlines as a cancer killer, with the compound of the plant vanishing tumors in mice with pancreatic cancer.
Known as the ‘thunder god vine’ or lei gong teng, the Chinese plant is actually integrated into Chinese medicine and has been used for ages in remedying a number of conditions including rheumatoid arthritis.
According to the new research out of the University of Minnesota’s Masonic Cancer Center, the thunder god plant compound led to no signs of tumors after a 40 day period — even after discontinuing the treatment. Published in the journal Science Translational Medicine and funded by the National Institutes of Health, even the scientists working on the project were stunned by the anti-cancer properties of the compound. Known to contain something known as triptolide, which has been identified as a cancer fighter in previous research, it is thought to be the key component that may be responsible for the anti-tumor capabilities.
Study leader and vice chairman of research at the Cancer Center explained to Bloomberg how he was blown away by the effects of the simple plant:
“This drug is just unbelievably potent in killing tumor cells,” he said.
And just like with numerous other powerful substances like turmeric and ginger, mainstream science is still slowly confirming what many traditional practitioners have known for their entire lives. This is, of course, due to the fact that there is simply no money for major corporations in researching the healing powers of natural herbs and compounds such as the compound found in the thunder god vine. Turmeric and ginger, for example, have been found to be amazing anti-cancer substances that are virtually free compared to expensive and dangerous cancer drugs.
Nevertheless, the Big Pharma sponsored corporate scientists have managed to ignore these spices as much as possible. In fact, they have even been caught time and time again faking thousands of studies to fraudulently demonstrate the supposed value of pharmaceutical drugs pushed by major pharma juggernauts — many of which are later forced to pay millions in fines which only slightly stack up against their billions in profits.
Profits that are threatened by the many real studies that were performed by scientists examining the rejeuvenating power of cheap ingredients like turmeric, which has been found by peer-reviewed research available on PubMed to positively influence over 590 conditions.
While it is great news that this study is bringing the beneficial effects of inexpensive and near-free plant compounds to light, the bad news is that the individuals responsible for the research are actually looking to create a pharmaceutical drug from the essential component triptolide. A drug that will seek FDA approval and ultimately be patented, nutritionally ruined, and sold for exorbitant amounts of cash. Instead, just get your hands on some thunder god vine for yourself.
