Q. What is the function of sodium bicarbonate?

Answer

Sodium bicarbonate is a salt that dissolves into sodium and bicarbonate in a variety of fluids, including blood and urine. The fluid becomes alkaline as a result of its breakdown, allowing it to neutralise the acid. This capacity to neutralise acid aids in the treatment of illnesses involving excessive acidity in body fluids, such as indigestion produced from too much acid in the stomach.
