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.

You’ve been lied to about weight loss.

Cardio is a stupid way to lose fat.

It barely burns any calories, makes you hungrier, and leads to overeating.

Let me share a science-backed system to drop 20 pounds of fat before summer (without ever stepping on a treadmill): 🧵 Image
People often think of cardio as the go-to fat loss tool.

Unfortunately, most studies show it’s not effective long-term.

The first issue: It doesn’t burn that many calories.

A 30-minute run burns around 250-350 calories—and that’s ONE cookie.

But the real problem is this:
Doing cardio post-workout tends to increase people’s appetites.

Even if you burn a few hundred calories, you might end up eating more without noticing.

Here’s the truth if you want to lose weight 👇

Your poor bile flow is why you wake up foggy, can't lose weight, and feel like garbage.

I discovered this the hard way when my health crashed at 21.

Fixing my bile flow transformed my health.

Here's exactly how I did it (and how you can do it too):
Bile is a green-yellow fluid that your liver makes 1-1.5 quarts of daily.

It's stored in your gallbladder and released when you eat fats.

Most people think it only helps digest food, but bile is actually a powerful detoxifier and hormone regulator. Image
Bile talks directly to your brain through the vagus nerve.

When bile flow slows down, it messes with the production of neurotransmitters that manage stress and mood.

Suddenly, the gut correlation with anxiety, depression, and brain fog makes sense. Image

French people eat high-cholesterol foods daily, yet have lower heart disease than Americans.

We avoid cholesterol, and our hearts are failing.

Their secret?

The exact opposite of what American experts recommend:
First off, cholesterol is absolutely vital to our biology.

It's the structural foundation of cell membranes, enabling proper cellular communication throughout your entire body. Image
Your brain is 25% cholesterol by weight.

It's concentrated in myelin sheaths that wrap nerve fibers, acting as electrical insulation for efficient nerve conduction.

Your brain literally runs on cholesterol for cognitive function, memory, and neurological signaling. Image

Scientists just cracked the multiple sclerosis code after decades of searching.

Two specific gut bacteria are triggering the disease, and they've proven it using identical twins and mice.

This changes everything we know about MS:
For decades, researchers have been hunting through the gut microbiome looking for MS triggers.

They finally found them.

Using 81 pairs of identical twins where only one had MS, they eliminated genetic variables completely.

What they discovered was groundbreaking ↓
Two bacterial species kept showing up in higher numbers in MS-affected twins:

• Eisenbergiella tayi
• Lachnoclostridium

Both live in the ileum (small intestine), where inflammatory T cells gather before attacking the brain.

This location matters more than you think. Image

She’s reinventing the science of aging.

Meet Julie Clark: the 56-year-old whose biological age clocks in at 36.

She’s outpacing Bryan Johnson, the $2M-a-year biohacker, on a mere $4/day.

Here's her simple anti-aging routine for peak health and lasting longevity: 🧵 Image
Most people think an anti-aging routine requires high-tech gadgets and fancy supplements.

But Julie proved otherwise.

Her routine costs less than a Starbucks latte while she ranks #2 on the global longevity leaderboard.

Here’s how:
Julie’s philosophy? Consistency > Perfection

She skips the trackers and eats the occasional donut.

As she put it, “Perfection adds stress. We’re all human, and life happens. Just get right back up and continue.”

Let’s break down her daily routine:

Most associate creatine with bodybuilding.

But that's like saying a smartphone is just for phone calls.

The benefits extend far beyond muscle growth.

Here's why creatine is one of the most powerful brain supplements available: 🧵 Image
Creatine is a naturally occurring compound in muscle and brain tissue.

Your body makes about 1-2 grams daily, and you can get another 1-2 grams from meat and fish.

Supplementing with 5 or more grams daily (might) make you a superhuman.

But how does it work?
Creatine boosts ATP (body's primary energy currency).

Think of ATP as rechargeable batteries powering every cell.

When these batteries run low, performance suffers.

Creatine rapidly recharges these batteries, maintaining high energy levels. Image
