The other day I was scrolling through a list of keywords that people use to find my website and I kept coming across "Baking Soda and body fat" so I decided to do some research. What I came up with is very interesting.

As far as I can tell baking soda per say does not directly affect body fat. But what I did find was a correlation between baking soda, citric acid and metabolism. You see, our bodies are like a chemistry set and they have to be balanced to run properly. And one of the things that need to be balanced is our body's pH.

So what's pH?

Well, technically, it stands for 'potential of hydroge'. It is a measure of the degree of saturation of the hydrogen ion in a substance or solution.

"Potential of Hydrogen measures the degree of the acidity or the alkalinity of a solution as measured on a scale (pH scale) of 0 to 14. The midpoint of 7.0 on the pH scale represents neutrality, i.e., a "neutral" solution is neither acid nor alkaline. Numbers below 7.0 indicate acidity; numbers greater than 7.0 indicate alkalinity."

I have no idea what the heck all that means but what I do know is that by measuring your bodies pH level you can determine if your body is too alkaline or acidic. Healthy people are slightly alkaline. Sick and unhealthy people are linked to acidic body environments. Your body's pH affects almost everything about you. Your pH level influences every biochemical process in your body including weight loss and body fat!
