Like trickle charging the battery of life to maintain the bicarbonate level in the blood.

A mineral dietary supplement of bicarbonates in a convenient tablet form designed for slow release in the intestine. Bicarb-Balance helps increase bicarbonates in the bloodstream and reduce accumulated acid waste. Each bottle contains 90 tablets. A 30-day supply.

Features of Bicarb-Balance
Bicarb-Balance is a combination of potassium bicarbonate and sodium bicarbonate in a tablet form with a time-release compound. It is enteric coated to prevent it from dissolving in the stomach where it would be damaged by stomach acid. It dissolves slowly in the intestine to allow maximum absorption of bicarbonate into the bloodstream.

Benefits of Bicarb-Balance
Potassium and sodium are stronger alkaline minerals than calcium and magnesium. In the body, potassium finds its way to the inside of cells while sodium stays on the outside. Potassium can neutralize lactic acid buildup in the muscles of athletes for better endurance.

An ounce of prevention
The old saw still says it best: an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. More and more nutritional literature is counseling us about the benefits of alkaline balance. Some nutritionists have even come to the conclusion that one of the causes of bone loss may be lack of sufficient mineral buffering from food, which would cause the body to borrow calcium from the bones. Get plentiful minerals and maintain healthy bones!

Dean's Bottom Line: Personally, I would rather use the Alkalife Booster Drops, as they have less ingredients than the Bicarb Balance. Also, using the drops will force you to drink more water; which is ALWAYS a good thing.

Can I take Alkalife and Bicarb-Balance or e-Cal at the same time? All three products are excellent mineral supplements, and you can do an either/or scenario, take two, or even all three simultaneously. In these cases, you can take the recommended dosage of Alkalife along with one of the tablet supplements or a half dosage of Bicarb-Balance and e-Cal, one in the morning and the other in the evening. There is no need to worry about an excess of alkalinity, as the body will balance itself and discharge any excess alkaline minerals through urine and perspiration. As we age, the content of bicarbonates diminishes, so this would not be considered an overdose. Among the three main Alkalife products (Alkalife drops, Bicarb-Balance and e-Cal) which are better for which conditions? All three are excellent for replenishing bicarbonates to the bloodstream to neutralize acid. For those who cannot swallow tablets, we recommend Alkalife. Both Alkalife and Bicarb-Balance are excellent for conditions such as kidney stones and gall stones because the potassium and sodium dissolve the stones more readily. For osteoporosis and for people on kidney dialysis, e-Cal is ideal. For those who have achlorhydria or hypochlorhydria, a condition where their stomachs do not produce sufficient hydrochloric acid for digestion, it is best to take either Bicarb-Balance or e-Cal as their stomachs will not produce sufficient amounts of hydrochloric acid to produce, as a result, a sufficient amount of bicarbonates. The tablets will supply the necessary bicarbonates directly to the bloodstream. What are the differences between Alkalife, Bicarb-Balance, and e-Cal? All three products add life-sustaining alkaline buffer, bicarbonate, to the bloodstream. Medical science has discovered that we lose bicarbonate in the blood as we age, especially after the age of 45. Alkalife puts bicarbonates into the bloodstream indirectly through the action of the stomach. When you drink high pH alkaline water made by Alkalife, the stomach pH rises too high for the stomach, and it induces the stomach to produce hydrochloric acid and put it into the stomach. At the same time, the stomach also produces bicarbonate and puts it in the bloodstream. If the stomach is overly acidic, drinking alkaline water may not raise the stomach pH high enough, and therefore, the production of hydrochloric acid may be small, and consequently, the bicarbonate production will be minimal as well. Bicarb-Balance and e-Cal do not dissolve in the stomach, they dissolve slowly in the intestine and the bicarbonate goes directly into the bloodstream from the intestine. They do not depend upon the condition of the stomach and are much more convenient than drinking 5 glasses of water a day. You can take Bicarb-Balance and e-Cal and drink alkaline water made by Alkalife. Even taking all three will not over-alkalize you but will help you get rid of acid faster. If you take more than needed, your body will dump the excess alkalinity and your urine will become alkaline. Can Bicarb-Balance and e-Cal tablets be broken in half for easier swallowing? Absolutely not. Do not break the tablets for easier swallowing because it will break the enteric coating. For those who cannot swallow tablets, Alkalife Alkaline Booster is a better recommendation.
