Home cook in Kansas City, MO, not a doctor. I lost 20 lb in 7 months with the habits on this page — a morning glass with a pinch of baking soda, lighter cooking, and dinner done early. I share what worked, what didn't, and I keep the claims honest.
Nothing here is medical advice. If you have blood-pressure, kidney or pregnancy concerns, talk to your doctor before adding sodium to your routine.
