Bicarbamet
Metabolic Acid Detox
May Help Balance Your pH
Metabolism continuously makes acids (H+ and CO2). CO2 can be exhaled. But H+ must be either turned into CO2 by adding bicarbonate, or excreted out in urine by phosphate and glutamine/ammonium pathways.
Since unwanted growths consume both phosphate and glutamine, it may be preferable to use the bicarbonate pathway to remove metabolic acids.
Supports Health of Teeth and Bones
When the body becomes overly acidic, it can rob calcium and phosphate from bones (which are made from calcium phosphate), to help the kidneys remove acids. This can lead to bone loss. Recharging the body’s bicarbonate stores may support better bone and teeth health.
Enhances Digestive Health
The salivary glands, stomach and pancreas all secrete bicarbonate. Healthy bicarbonate levels are required for good digestive health. If you’ve watched our Phylamet video (you should), then you may be asking why we are adding alkaline elements to our digestive tract when most of us have acidic stool.
Half of one teaspoon of bicarbonate is expected to be fully absorbed by the gut long before it would alkalinize the stool. For a dosage of 1 teaspoon, you should check your stool pH to see if you are absorbing all the Bicarbamet before it reaches your colon.
