“…Respiratory failure is caused by compensatory hypoventilation, decreased tissue oxygen delivery from a left shift of oxygen dissociation curve (Bohr effect), and decreased sensitivity of peripheral chemoreceptors to hypoxia [16][17][18]. Acute severe hypernatremia from salt ingestion presents with seizures, coma, hypertonia, fevers, hemorrhagic infarctions and thrombosis of dural sinuses [6,19,20].…”

“…Excessive sodium bicarbonate may also cause congestive heart failure exacerbation and pulmonary edema [1]. Other metabolic and clinical effects from baking soda ingestion include hypertension, gastric rupture, rhabdomyolysis hyporeninemia, hypokalemia, hypochloremia, intravascular volume depletion, and urinary alkalinization [1,6,7,9,21,22].…”

“…In clinical medicine it's used to treat severe metabolic acidosis, hyperkalemia, dysrhythmias, tricyclics and diphenhydramine overdose [1,5]. In smaller recommended doses it's generally well tolerated [1] but excessive ingestion can cause serious metabolic and neurological complications [6][7][8][9]. Despite its widespread use severe toxicity and fatality from baking soda overdose is very rarely reported in medical literature [6,9].…”

Baking Soda is a universally available household product. It is used to treat heartburn, indigestion as a home remedy. It's generally well tolerated but abuse and overdose can cause toxicities with serious metabolic and neurological complications. We discuss here a case of a patient with acute baking soda toxicity that developed acute respiratory failure and large bilateral cerebral infarctions leading to death. To our research this is the first reported case of cerebral infarctions following baking soda toxicity. Our report underlines the need for healthcare professionals to be aware on the complications of baking soda overdose and its urgent treatment.

Sodium bicarbonate is produced by the Solvay process from salt (NaCl), ammonia gas (NH 3 ), and CO 2 . Here, the Solvay process was modified by using ammonium hydroxide (NH 4 OH) liquid to replace NH 3 . To increase the yield of sodium bicarbonate, a froth flotation column was used. This column can generate microbubbles of CO 2 , which increases the CO 2 conversion. The parameters were studied using response surface methodology (RSM) with a central composite design of experiments. Based on the RSM analysis, the optimum conditions were identified. Analysis of variance shows that the reaction time is the most significant parameter affecting the production of sodium bicarbonate. Empirical quadratic multivariable equation models were obtained with R 2 = 0.94. The heavy metal-free product can be used as a food additive.

Nutrition for Cancer Prevention and Control: A Review of Dietary Risk Factors and Protective Measures

Dietary management is one of the top research interests in the field of human cancer, but due to the heavy focus of cancer studies mainly on detection and medical treatment, the role of nutrition in prevention has generally received little research attention, and standards of care in cancer treatment do not effectively consider diet-based interventions as either an alternative or a complementary practice. It is generally believed that an unbalanced diet, unhealthy dietary patterns, and the consumption of nutrient-deficient foods contribute to the occurrence of various cancers. In contrast, adequate consumption of healthy, natural foods rich in essential nutrients may reduce the risk of cancer and help cancer patients better recover from the adverse effects of medical treatments. However, little is known about how dietary interventions interact with cancer. This study aims to provide an overview of several major dietary cancer risk factors and protective measures, as well as nutritional recommendations for the management of this disease. Moreover, based on the Warburg hypothesis, several potential dietary interventions have been identified to help maintain nutritional balance and reduce cancer risk. The findings of this study suggest that a balanced healthy diet with alkalizing and anti-inflammatory properties may be effective for maintaining certain aspects of health and reducing the risk of developing cancer. Further research should be performed to explore whether such dietary interventions could have an impact on the incidence or development of cancer.
