I am sold on baking soda also. I had a dot of basil cell on my cheek which was removed by Moe‘s treatment, leaving a very large scar on my face. I started researching natural remedies online and saw where others had made a paste with baking soda and just a little bit of water to make it a thick paste. Whenever I got further spots on my face and chest, I used baking soda paste. I would just dab it on at night before I went to bed and within about five days or so, it would scab up like a sore and disappear. You have to be consistent with doing it every night or day until it’s gone. A lot of my family members as well as friends have been using this remedy for about four years it works. Some put a bandaid on theirs. One person online said he had one that started bleeding after a couple of days of the baking soda and bled on and off a good part of the day and then stopped; eventually drying up and going away. He felt that the bleeding happened because it broke the spot away from the blood supply. I had one that did that also but no others. I grew up in Florida in the sun a lot.
I put a little more than a half a teaspoon in about 4 ounces of water and drank it right down. I did it for two weeks and the sore went away. That was back in March and the sore has not come back.
In the beginning of the Covid virus, I had watched a video on YT where a women said that during the 1918 Pandemic, her mother gave them 1/2 tsp. of baking soda in water and no one in her family got sick. So I did this for two weeks. Prior to this, I had a sore inside my nostril on and off for many years and recently it had spread. I couldn't see it, but I could feel it. I was going to see a doctor about it when Covid started. Interestingly, after the two weeks on water and baking soda, the sore was gone. Completely gone. I was so relieved, I thought for sure I was going to need to have half my nose removed for melanoma. I am sold on baking soda and water. I love Earth Clinic!
For melanoma that has metastasized, drink a teaspoon of baking soda in a glass of water 3 to 5 times a day.
Do this until 2 weeks after you're in the all-clear. Baking soda alkalinizes your system, and cancer and disease cannot live in an alkaline environment.
Also, pack baking soda/water paste on the affected area under a band aid.
