Baking soda feet can lower blood pressure

Baking soda foot washing generally can not lower blood pressure.

Hypertension is the lateral pressure caused by blood flow. The main component of baking soda is sodium bicarbonate. This substance does not generally reduce the pressure of blood vessels, so it does not play a role in lowering blood pressure. However, baking soda is weakly alkaline and has a certain disinfection and sterilization effect. Patients with hypertension may use baking soda foot washing to reduce symptoms. However, attention should be paid to the amount of use. Excessive concentration may burn the skin.

Patients diagnosed with hypertension should pay attention to lifestyle adjustment and ensure adequate sleep to facilitate blood pressure control.
