Bad Smelling Shoes
Whether you have an active life or prefer a shoe that may be lacking in the ventilation department, chances are you have experienced the malodor that your shoes can undergo. Whilst talcum powder is a fantastic short term solution, to remove lingering odor you can sprinkle the inside of your shoes with a generous amount of bicarb. The bicarb will not mask the odor, but rather absorb it. A thorough wash in a bicarb solution after will have your shoes smelling brand new for longer.
Indigestion Remedy
We are all familiar with the incredible discomfort commonly referred to as heartburn. Whilst having nothing at all to do with your heart, acid reflux, to use the proper terminology causes severe pain in the esophagus creating the sensation of extreme chest pain. Acid reflux is linked to dietary sensitivities and the consumption of alcohol. As your digestive system becomes inundated by high levels of gastric acid this is pushed up past the stomach and into the esophagus. Baking soda is one of the best deacidifying agents on the market. A teaspoon dissolved in 500ml of water will bring relief quickly and soothe away the symptom naturally.
