Applications

Cooking
Main article: leavening agent
Sodium bicarbonate is primarily used in cooking where it reacts with other components to release carbon dioxide, that helps dough "rise". The acidic compounds that induce this reaction include cream of tartar, lemon juice, yogurt, etc.) as a in baking: some forms of baking powder contain sodium bicarbonate combined with cream of tartar. Some nutritionists, such as Erica White, caution against combining with cream of tartar or tartaric acid, as they are toxic substances.[citation needed]

A small amount (1tsp) can be added to a beef stew to make tough meat tenderize faster. (However, this is no substitute for just stewing the meat for more time.)
Sodium bicarbonate is used to give the pretzels their dark brown color.
Formerly, it was used as a source of carbon dioxide for soda water.
Can be used when preparing tomato sauce to neutralize the tomato’s acidity.
It is added to beans in water to prevent the gasses produced when eating them.
It is effective in extinguishing grease fires which occur when deep frying.

For neutralization of acids
The reaction of acids with sodium bicarbonate is a common method for neutralizing acid spills. The advantage to this method is that one can use excess sodium carbonate, which is relatively innocuous. The neutralization process is signaled by the release of gaseous CO2. A wide variety of applications follow from its neutralization properties including ameliorating the effects of white phosphorus in incendiary bullets, from spreading inside a soldier’s afflicted wounds. Military Application

It is commonly used to increase the pH and total alkalinity of the water for pools and spas. Sodium bicarbonate can be added as a simple solution for restoring the pH balance of water that has a high level of chlorine.
One cup of baking soda maintains a healthy septic tank. It controls pH and keeps a good environment for the bacteria.[citation needed]
It neutralizes battery acid.

Miscellaneous and domestic uses

As a deodorizer
An absorbent for moisture and odors; an open box can be left in a refrigerator for this purpose. However, according to one source, baking soda does not actually absorb odors well when used in a refrigerator.

A tub bath with sodium bicarbonate can eliminate vaginal infections caused by yeasts.
Gurgling with sodium bicarbonate prevents the flu and colds and throat infections.
When mixed with mint tea it can relieve stomachaches.

Paramedicine

In American paramedicine, sodium bicarbonate 8.4% is used cases of acidosis and overdoses of acidic toxic substances, such as tricyclic antidepressants and aspirin.
Contraindications are states including alkalosis.
Adverse reactions to emergency administration of sodium bicarb include congestive heart failure, with edema secondary to sodium overload, and the ********bolic complication of hyperosmolarity, ********bolic acidosis, and hypernatremia.
The route of administration for sodium bicarb is intravenous bolus and intravenous infusion.
Sodium bicarbonate adminstration should be considered only for treatment of documented severe acidosis associated with prolonged cardiac arrest or unstable hemodynamic state, hyperkalemia, or overdoses.

Cosmetic uses

In toothpaste, baking soda helps to gently remove stains, whiten teeth, freshen breath, and dissolve plaque.[citation needed]
Putting a little in shampoo removes left overs from other products and makes the hair more lustrious.
Washing ones faces with sodium bicarbonate cleans pores and prevents acne.
Add to hair if it’s dirty and there’s no time to wash it. Dry with warm air.

As a cleaning agent

A solution in warm water will remove the tarnish from silver when the silver is in contact with a piece of aluminum foil.
With water, it cleans the impurities on contact lenses. Rinse completely before wearing contacts to avoid stinging of the salt in baking soda.
