Arm and Hammer Pure Baking Soda 907g

Baking soda is 100% pure sodium bicarbonate. Baking powder is a mixture of baking soda (usually about 28-30%) and various acidic ingredients (singularly or in combination). Both are used as leavening agents in baked goods- baking soda will react with an acid, giving off carbon dioxide gas and causing dough to rise.

Just sprinkle some baking soda on a damp sponge, scrub the surface, and rinse. 2. Deodorizing: It's great for neutralizing odors. You can place an open box in your refrigerator to absorb unwanted smells, sprinkle some in your trash can, or even use it to freshen up your carpets (just sprinkle, let it sit for 15-20 minutes, then vacuum). 3. Personal Care: You can use it as a natural toothpaste, a facial scrub, or even a bath soak. For toothpaste, just dip your wet toothbrush into some baking soda and brush as usual. For a facial scrub, mix three parts baking soda with one part water. For a bath soak, add 1/2 cup of baking soda to your bath water to neutralize acids on the skin and help wash away oil and perspiration. 4. Cooking: Baking soda is also used in baking as a leavening agent. It reacts with acidic components in recipes, releasing carbon dioxide, which helps dough rise. Remember, when using baking soda for personal care, always do a patch test first to ensure you don't have a reaction. And when using it for cleaning, test on a small, hidden area first to make sure it doesn't discolor or damage the surface.
