Professor Magdi Yaqoob said:
- It’s amazing
- This is the first randomized controlled study of its kind
- A simple remedy like sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), when used appropriately, can be very effective
Out of 134 test patients with advanced kidney disease and metabolic acidosis, a haphazardly chose little gathering was given a tablet day by day, made of a little measure of sodium bicarbonate for a year. The kidney capacities of these patients declined at a rate that is normal with ordinary maturing and were more averse to require dialysis. This gathering had a 2/3 slower decay of wellbeing than the untreated gathering.
This study shows baking soda can be useful for people with kidney failure. That is, as long as the dose is regulated and under supervision.’ According to professor Magdi
This cheap and simple strategy also improves patients’ nutritional well-being and has the potential to improve quality of life and of course a clinical outcome that can remove the need for dialysis.
