- A small pinch of baking soda
Add the lemon juice to the water first. Then add the baking soda gradually and allow the fizzing to settle before drinking.
You do not need a large amount of baking soda. More is not necessarily better.
Why Do People Drink It?
Some people enjoy the combination simply because of its taste and refreshing quality. Lemon also provides vitamin C, while baking soda is commonly used in cooking and household applications.
However, claims that lemon water with baking soda can “detox” the body, cure disease, dramatically change blood pH, or replace medical treatment are not well supported by reliable evidence.
Your body already has sophisticated systems involving the lungs and kidneys that carefully regulate blood pH.
Important Things to Keep in Mind
Baking soda contains sodium. Consuming excessive amounts can therefore increase sodium intake and may cause unwanted effects.
