Baking Soda
|
Did you know how versatile baking soda aka Sodium Bicarbonate is for your everyday wellness? A white powder in every kitchen, but its history is ancient, its chemistry powerful, and its purpose goes far beyond baking. Long before it was a kitchen staple, baking soda existed in nature as a mineral called nahcolite, found in: dry riverbeds, ancient lake deposits, volcanic regions and mineral springs. Civilizations who lived near these deposits discovered that this strange white powder could clean, purify, neutralise and heal long before science explained why. The largest natural deposits today are in: North America (especially Colorado), Egypt, Kenya and Turkey. South Africa has smaller deposits in soda-rich soils.
