Baking Soda is Not Just For Cooking
by Russell Cope
Baking soda is such a wonderful product because it has many uses other than just cooking. It is also a wonderful cleaner. Mixed with water you can clean counter tops, stoves, and even get out laundry stains.
Most of us know the normal uses for baking soda such as making a paste out of soda and peroxide for brushing our teeth and keeping a box in the refrigerator to keep odors down. But let me tell you about some more uses.
Just two tablespoons mixed in baby’s bath water will relieve diaper rash irritations and making a paste out of baking soda will relieve insect bite pain and itching. It will even relieve the pain of bee stings.
Use soda as a mouthwash and relieve the pain from those awful cancer sores or mix one half teaspoon of it with one half glass of water and drink to get rid of heart burn. The uses are almost unending for this product.
One use for baking soda my mom taught me years ago was to keep it on hand next to the stove for putting out grease fires. I have actually had to use it just for that! Some people also keep some in their garage and boat for the same reason. There is nothing more frightening than fire and having something close to help put it out is important.
Do not forget to keep the odor out of the kitty litter box by sprinkling the bottom of the box with it. Keep experimenting and I know you too will come up with lots of uses for this wonderful, and not to mention cheap, product.
