Sometimes you can't see the forest for the trees! Do you know this saying? Today I would like to introduce you to something that can, in due course, save a life in danger. And none of us are safe from it!

Many years ago I read the following note in an old book:

If a person suffers a heart attack or stroke and is given a heaped teaspoon of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) dissolved in 300 ml of water, he can open the door for the arriving paramedics himself – without any signs of the previous incident!

This information led to a remarkable event in August 2022:

My family and I were already living in the Dominican Republic. We had an elderly Polish couple as friends here, the wife of whom had just traveled to Germany, while Georg (71 years old) stayed alone in their house in Las Terrenas.

One morning Georg called me in a panic. He reported that he suddenly couldn't see anything, was dizzy and didn't know what to do. It was immediately clear to me: He has a stroke!

Georg trusted my expertise because we had often discussed health issues. When I asked him if he had any baking soda at home, he replied that he did have it but couldn't find it because of his poor eyesight. I reassured him and said that I would come to him immediately.

About 20 minutes later I was with him with baking soda. I mixed a heaped teaspoon of baking soda into a glass of water and made him drink the mixture quickly, although he complained about the salty taste. After my instruction, he drank it anyway.

We were sitting in his living room with a fantastic view of the Caribbean Sea – at least for me, because Georg couldn’t see it at the moment.

After just five minutes he reported that he could already see outlines again. I made him another glass, which he drank reluctantly, but his motivation increased with the noticeable improvement in his condition.

After about half an hour Georg was back on his feet and felt much better. A German friend we had informed also came to support us in the event of a visit to the hospital. But Georg vehemently rejected this.

An hour later he was back to his old self and since then he has been drinking his daily portion of baking soda as a preventative measure.

Why am I telling you this story?

Stroke and heart attack often have similar causes, especially the so-called rouleau formation, in which the blood clots. This situation usually goes unnoticed for years or decades and leads to many well-known complaints.

The clotted blood reduces transport capacity of the red blood cells enormously, which in turn impairs the supply and cleaning of the cells.

Sodium bicarbonate acts as a base and can dissolve the rouleau formation by neutralizing the magnetic attraction of the red blood cells. This improves the blood quality and thus the supply to the cells.

In the meantime, however, I have potassium bicarbonate discovered which, unlike baking soda, works with potassium instead of sodium.

And we now have these products in our range:

Potassium is responsible for water exchange within the cells and thus supports cell cleansing and supply. A lack of potassium can lead to water retention, weakness, high blood pressure and other complaints.

I therefore recommend everyone prophylactically or if symptoms exist one teaspoon daily Potassium bicarbonate in just over 300 ml of water – unmixed, otherwise the base becomes volatile.

Potassium bicarbonate is better than baking soda and helps to alleviate or prevent the above-mentioned complaints.

How long should you drink it? As long as you want to prevent lifestyle diseases.

I even take it with me on vacation – I’m worth it!
