Uses Of Baking Soda You Should Know

I mean baking soda not baking powder. It is cheap, effective and easy to use.
  *Baking soda can be used as an instant remedy for constipation, heartburn and indigestion. Just add a teaspoon full to a glass of water and drink.
  *It neutralizes gassy beans and improves digestion too. Just sprinkle a teaspoon of soda in water  when you wash your beans.
  *Helps remove strong odour like garlic and onions. Simply mix with water and rub on hands.
Thank me later.

I know a soap/cream/oil that would do the trick” And I wonder why it matters if I get darker due to exposure to the sun.  I am after all an African. Africans have dark skin.
