It’s the most underrated medicine on Earth.

It fights cancer, kills inflammation, and crushes stress—yet costs pennies per dose.

Recently, I’ve been researching its healing benefits.

What I found is mind-blowing 🧵 Image
1/ It Battles Chronic Inflammation
Inflammation is the silent killer behind cancer, heart disease, and even Alzheimer’s.

Studies show baking soda signals the body to switch off inflammation at the cellular level.

Could this be nature’s simplest anti-inflammatory? Image
2/ It’s Your Natural pH Balancer
Your body works continuously to maintain perfect pH.

Cancer, bacteria, and viruses thrive in acidic environments.

Baking soda helps restore balance, making it harder for disease to take hold.

But there’s more to pH…
Why pH Matters:

Acidic environments fuel disease.

Neutral pH improves oxygen flow to cells.

Proper pH is key for healthy digestion.

See how Dr. Berg describes the effects of pH in your stomach:
3/ It Can Boost Exercise Performance
Athletes use sodium bicarbonate 90 minutes before an intense workout to delay muscle fatigue and improve endurance.

It buffers lactic acid buildup, keeping you going longer.
I also take Essential Amino Acids to support lean muscle, athletic performance & recovery.

Amino acids are the building blocks for blood, bone, muscle, hormones, neurotransmitters & more.
I created this product to give your body additional support beyond consuming protein alone.

4/ It Can Slow Kidney Decline

In clinical trials, kidney disease patients taking baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) showed slower kidney function decline.

It reduces acid buildup, preserving healthy kidneys.

Kidney damage may be lessened with this pantry staple.
What Studies Show:

Baking soda slows the progression of chronic kidney disease.

It also reduces the risk of dialysis in later stages.

Why isn’t this common knowledge? It’s almost like there’s a billion dollar industry keeping it quiet…

The next one is even crazier… Image
5/ It Can Shrink Tumors & Reduce Cancer Cells
Cancer spreads in acidic environments.

Baking soda neutralizes acidity.

Animal studies show reduced tumor activity.

Initial studies show it has promise in preventing it.
6/ It Can Break Down Pesticides on Produce
Your “clean” vegetables and fruit may be covered in invisible chemicals.

Most produce is sprayed with pesticides and other toxins before it gets to your kitchen.

A baking soda soak removes pesticides better than water and vinegar.
7/ It Can Ease Heartburn, Indigestion & Ulcers
A natural antacid, baking soda quickly neutralizes stomach acid, bringing relief from reflux, bloating, and even ulcer pain.

But don’t overuse it—it’s powerful.

But what’s the best way to improve gut health?
You can also support a healthy gut by consuming probiotic-rich foods like kombucha, sauerkraut & yogurt.

Dr. William Davis, in the NY Times best-selling book "Super Gut," recommends making your own probiotics at home.
That's why I created this easy-to-use machine: amazon.com/dp/B0C5S6XVK7?…
8/ It’s Can Help Fight EColds & Flu
Baking soda has been used for over a century as an antiviral.

Old medical texts even recommended it as a way to treat viruses by balancing your pH.

There’s another way it helps keep you healthy… Image
9/ It Can Improve Sleep Quality
Stress and poor pH balance disrupt sleep.

A small dose before bed may calm the nervous system and promote deeper rest.

Some also report waking up less in the night to urinate.

Enough sleep is CRUCIAL to getting and staying healthy.
10/ It Can Lower Stress & Anxiety
Alkalizing the body has been linked to reduced cortisol levels.

Less acidity = less stress.

Some even use baking soda baths for relaxation.

This could be the cheapest stress reliever ever. Image
Nature’s secret weapon is already in your kitchen.

From fighting acidity to boosting energy, baking soda does it all.

Take advantage of its power.

Glycine is the most overlooked supplement for longevity.

It makes you look younger, slows aging, and improves brain function.

Andrew Huberman & Peter Attia swear by it to stay in peak condition in their 50s.

Here's the science behind glycine (& how to use it correctly): 🧵 Image
First off, what is glycine?

Glycine is a non-essential amino acid—your body naturally makes a small amount, but not enough for optimal health.

And modern diets leave most people deficient in glycine.

Here's why that’s a big deal as you age: Image
1. Glycine builds collagen

Collagen keeps your skin firm, joints smooth, and bones strong.

As you age, its production slows down.

Glycine forms the foundation of collagen. Without it, your body can’t restore what aging destroys.

But that isn’t the only thing glycine powers…

Acidosis is the silent killer your doctor overlooks.

All diseases (including cancer) thrive in an acidic environment.

Doctors dismissed my fatigue and pain until I found my body was dangerously acidic.

Here's what acidosis is & how to reverse it naturally: 🧵 Image
Acidosis is a condition associated with having an increased level of acidity in your body.

Many areas of your body, e.g., your blood, thrive in a slightly alkaline environment.

Unfortunately, most things we eat, drink, and do these days create an excess of acid.
The symptoms of acidosis are everywhere, but rarely connected:

• Chronic fatigue and low energy
• Joint pain and arthritis
• Weak bones (osteoporosis)
• Weight gain
• Frequent infections and slow healing
• Skin problems
• Brain fog and headaches Image

Your thyroid SHOULD BE fixing your energy, mood, metabolism, and immunity.

What if it's BROKEN?

Hypothyroidism has reached pandemic proportions, affecting 100s of millions worldwide.

Here's how to heal your thyroid the right way (according to science): 🧵 Image
Thyroid disorders affect over 200M people worldwide today, a dramatic increase in the last 50 years.

Conventional medicine manages symptoms with synthetic hormone pills rather than addressing root causes.

What if the solution were simpler than a lifetime of medication?
Women experience thyroid issues more frequently than men, with estrogen levels playing a role.

For men, thyroid concerns typically come after 45.

This difference highlights why personalized approaches matter.

Here's the protocol according to @dr_ericberg:

Europeans can stay fit and reach 100+ while:

• Eating bread and pasta daily
• Drinking wine every night
• Rarely hitting the gym

But when Americans try it? They gain weight, age faster, and get sick.

After spending time in Italy, I uncovered EXACTLY why: 🧵 Image
First, the hard numbers:

A 2021 study found that obesity rates in adult Americans reached 40.3% in 2021-2023 — 2 in every 5 Americans.

That’s an obesity epidemic.

In 2024, there haven’t been any signs of these numbers significantly going down. Image
Meanwhile, in Europe, obesity rates were only around 13% in 2017-2018.

Italy (7.5%) and France (8.8%) show the lowest rate.

They’re also lowest in overweight prevalence.

The American vs. the European lifestyle differences:

50% of all adults breathe through their mouth.

Mouth breathing is wrecking your health, deforming your face, and ruining your smile.

It's even crippling your brain.

Here's how mouth breathing affects your health (and how to fix it): 🧵 Image
The "mouth breather" face look is unmistakable once you know what to see:

• Elongated, narrow face structure
• Recessed or weak chin
• Perpetual dark circles
• Habitually open mouth posture

This has nothing to do with genetics. Image
Here's the brutal developmental mechanism that orthodontists see daily:

When children breathe through their mouths, their tongues drop from the roof of the mouth where they belong.

Without tongue support, the upper palate narrows, rises high, and the jaw recedes. Image

I've tested hundreds of supplements over 30 years to heal myself.

Most are worthless, but these 15 transformed my health.

At 50, my bloodwork is better than when I was 20.

The evidence-based supplement list that actually works: 🧵 Image
1. MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane)

Hands-down my favourite supplement recommendation for ANYONE.

It boosts oxygen in your cells (disease HATES oxygen).

I take 6-9 grams TWICE daily and my chronic pain vanished.

Even my scar tissue softens noticeably within days. Image
2. Vitamin C

Not just for colds, it's critical for tissue repair & lowering inflammation.

I take several grams of sodium ascorbate daily when fighting infection.

Combined with MSM, it's like giving your muscles an internal bath, washing away years of accumulated toxins.
