Sodium Bicarbonate: The Buffering Supplement That Can Change Your Output
Sodium bicarbonate is a specialist performance supplement for selected high-intensity events. It is not a general-purpose drink or a treatment for poor fitness.
A practical starting point
Discuss event suitability, product and timing with a sports dietitian. Any supervised trial belongs in training, with a clear performance measure and adequate time to assess gastrointestinal effects.
What the evidence does not promise
Stomach upset can outweigh any benefit. The sodium load and health history also matter. Do not improvise a dosing protocol or combine it with other buffering products.
How to make it useful for your training
Bring a short record of your sessions, food routine and the specific problem you want to solve. Anthony can help organise the training plan and general habits; a sports dietitian or clinician should manage individual supplement protocols and medical concerns.
