Sodium bicarbonate has emerged as a notable ergogenic aid in sports science, primarily due to its ability to augment extracellular buffering capacity and mitigate the accumulation of metabolic acids ...

Credit: Thinkstock Sodium bicarbonate is the most common treatment, but it has notable limitations, particularly in terms of patient adherence. Sodium bicarbonate has some down sides, but there are ...

Prior low-quality evidence has suggested that sodium bicarbonate may benefit critically ill patients with severe metabolic acidemia and acute kidney injury (AKI). In this randomized trial of patients ...

In critically ill patients with severe metabolic acidaemia (defined as pH ≤ 7.20) and moderate-to-severe acute kidney injury (AKI), intravenous sodium bicarbonate infusion did not reduce all-cause ...

Montpellier University Hospital leads a 43-center French effort that reports no reduction in day 90 all-cause mortality with sodium bicarbonate infusion for critically ill adults with severe metabolic ...

Our kidneys normally maintain acid-base balance by removing acid and reabsorbing bicarbonate. In CKD, this function declines, leading to low bicarbonate levels and metabolic acidosis. This acidic ...

Sodium bicarb in an energy gel? The same baking soda you put in your cakes or see listed in your cleaning products? You read it right. Sodium bicarbonate energy gels are now a “thing” in an intriguing ...
