I agree that cleanses help and the regular use of probiotics and enzymes with todays diet is important to stay healthy, however, I have discovered that when our PH levels are too low (acidic) our bodies become a breeding ground for bacteria, yeast, fungus, viruses, cancer, etc. I use to have Bv's, and bladder infections regularly until I read this article on the bodies ph levels, normal or neutral being at 7.0 and how baking soda raises our ph from a lower or acidic level to a normal range where this stuff (Bvs, infections, yeast, etc) cannot survive! I take a level teaspoon every morning and night and use urine test strips to check it. I have had no problems since starting this.

Sometimes life is so simple it's hard to believe it's true. Good luck, Eva
