Natron is as diverse as hardly another old "home remedies". It sells heartburn, maketh cakes, makes the bathwater pleasantly soft, leaves lemonade bubble, helps wound healing and skin problems and can be used perfectly for laundry, face and hand washing and for renewing old silverware. In short, it should be in every household. Our doctor told us small amounts would drink several times throughout the day in the water reduce blood glucose levels and normalize blood pressure. Whether it will help we do not know because we are healthy, but maybe you can tell it's even. We use soda in orange juice and coffee. Very pleasant tasteless! Here you get a fine powder, which is (as opposed to Kaiser Natron) also suitable for brushing teeth, without attacking the gums. Comparable to arm & hammer, but much cheaper. An unbeatable price, we will definitely order again!
