Wholefood Earth - Sodium Bicarbonate Baking Soda 500 g

This is a really good product if you use baking soda regularly. The 3 kg size offers excellent value, and it is very handy to have a larger quantity at home rather than needing to replace smaller packs all the time. The powder itself seems good quality and works exactly as expected. It is useful not only for baking, but also for general household uses, which makes it a very practical product to keep in the cupboard. Having a larger pack is especially convenient if you use it for more than one purpose. The packaging was also fine and the product arrived as expected. Overall, this is a simple but very useful item, good quality, good value, and worth buying again.

After using countless brands of baking soda over the years—from supermarket staples like Dr. Oetker and Arm & Hammer to obscure bulk suppliers—I’ve finally landed on Wholefood Earth’s 2kg bag, and it’s been an absolute staple in my home. I originally bought it purely for GERD relief, but its value quickly extended into dozens of unexpected areas across health, hygiene, and household care. It’s become a quiet, powerful tool that I reach for nearly every day—far more than I ever anticipated. My most regular use is health-related. As someone who suffers from occasional acid reflux and general stomach sensitivity, I often take a small pinch in warm water after meals, particularly if I’ve eaten late, had something acidic, or feel bloated. It works almost instantly to neutralise excess acid—far faster and gentler on my system than traditional antacids, and without any chalky aftertaste or strange coating in the mouth. I’ve also experimented with it during fasts and hydration days, combining it with a bit of Himalayan salt and lemon to balance pH, keep electrolytes steady, and avoid dizziness or muscle tightness. Compared to others I’ve tried, this one dissolves quickly, has no bitter aftertaste, and hasn’t triggered any skin irritation or rashes, which I’ve had before with cheaper grades. In the kitchen, it’s a miracle multitasker. I use it to soak and clean fruit and veg, especially grapes and leafy greens, removing wax, dirt and pesticide traces without using any harsh chemicals. It also plays a key role in my baking—especially when I’m making flatbreads or muffins that need a quick rise—and I’ve found that its quality here is noticeably better than cheaper supermarket boxes. I’ve never had the unpleasant metallic aftertaste some lower-quality sodas can leave behind. When cooking pulses or beans, I’ll add a pinch to reduce cooking time and improve digestibility, which helps with bloating. But where it really shines is cleaning. I’ve made my own scrubs using a mix of sodium bicarb and water to lift tea and coffee stains off mugs, clean the sink, and polish chrome taps to a shine. It works perfectly on burnt pans too—just boil water with a generous spoonful and let it sit. I’ve used it as a laundry booster, especially for sweaty gym clothes, as it cuts through odour and sweat residue. Speaking of sweat, it’s also an effective natural deodorant when made into a paste or even dusted lightly under arms on days I need to skip commercial products due to sensitive skin flare-ups. I’ve even used it for oral hygiene. A small pinch on the toothbrush after regular brushing acts as a polish and neutraliser. It’s noticeably helped reduce plaque and leaves a fresh, alkaline feel in the mouth. I wouldn’t recommend overusing it this way daily, but a few times a week has worked wonders in my case, especially during stressful times when my mouth feels more acidic. Around the house, I’ve neutralised fridge smells, freshened the carpet, and even used it in the shoes after a sweaty walk. I’ve used it to clean pet bowls, deodorise bins, unclog slow drains (combined with white vinegar), and as part of a DIY bath soak to soothe tired legs and feet. I’ve sprinkled it in gym bags, under bin liners, and even in a dish near the cat’s litter tray to keep odours down without synthetic sprays. It’s also my go-to when soaking dishcloths or cleaning chopping boards naturally. What really sets this product apart is the sheer consistency and purity. I’ve had no clumping, no harsh scent, and no inconsistency between batches. It's clear this isn’t some industrial-grade variant repackaged for home use—it’s smooth, reliable, and food-safe, and the 2kg size is just right for keeping a good supply on hand without worrying about running out. And for those like me who read the fine print, it’s free from aluminium and gluten, so I trust it for consumption and skin contact alike. If I had to mention one thing to be cautious about, it’s to always dilute it properly, especially when using for health or skin. I’ve learned the hard way that overuse can dry the skin or upset the gut if used too frequently or in high amounts. And as with any natural cleaning or hygiene ingredient, it’s not always a full substitute for stronger agents when dealing with bacteria-heavy zones like toilets or food-poisoning risks. But as an everyday, eco-conscious, body-safe option? There’s really no better. Wholefood Earth’s sodium bicarbonate has quietly become one of the most useful, health-aligned, and trustworthy products in my household. It’s rare to find something so simple yet powerful, so affordable yet effective. Whether you’re managing reflux, cleaning up, baking, or detoxing, it’s a gentle powerhouse—and I’m not going back to anything else.

Very good product and value for money and good size. Easy to use, has a lot of benefits and usage for health and for cleaning. Very durable it last a long time.

The product is great. Can't fault any of the items I've had from Whole Food Earth, however whoever packs items needs to take more care. My bag came ripped in the box but it's not eligible for return. I'm just going to put it in an airtight jar. This is the second item from this company that I've had that has been damaged in the packing process or in transit :-(

I have been using Wholefood Earth Sodium Bicarbonate (1 kg) for a few weeks, and it’s quickly become one of those household essentials I can’t do without. It works perfectly for baking, cleaning, deodorising, and a whole range of other uses, making it incredibly versatile. The quality is excellent, very fine and consistent, and it dissolves easily without leaving any residue. The 1 kg pack is generous and will last a long time, whether you’re using it for cooking or around the house. I have also found it handy for personal care uses, like gentle teeth cleaning or as a deodoriser for shoes and the fridge and believe it offers excellent value for money with all the uses you can get out of it.

Good value, using this for cleaning and home use.
