Most people are familiar with the idea of lemon water being a super healthy beverage. But baking soda lemon water? How does that work?
I'm glad you asked, my friend!
As it turns out, lemon and baking soda combine to form one truly epic health elixir. Today, we're going to focus on what makes the combination so special and what exactly it does for your health.

'But wait,' you might be thinking. 'What about the cancer prevention part?'
Well, my friend, that's where the baking soda comes in. Baking soda, according to Dr. Mark Pagel, raises the pH level of cell tissue. Doctors have actually recommended baking soda for patients suffering from weaker forms of cancer.
According to Lifehack, lemon juice loosens toxins in your digestive tract. Baking sodalends a hand with digestion by breaking down fatty foods and making them easier to digest. Heartburn? Not with baking soda. This alkaline substance calms excess stomach acid. Just remember that reflux has many causes, and taking baking soda to lessen stomach acid may not improve your situation.
Lemons are great if you're not ready to commit to a full liver detox. You see, compounds in lemon give your liver a boost in getting rid of all the toxins it deals with. Baking soda is also a powerful detoxing ingredient. According to Dr. Sircus, it's even useful in helping flush radiation poisoning to prevent it from permeating tissue.
