If your "solution" is more of a paste and contains a lot of NaHCO3 you will likely end up irritating the skin.   Why?  Same reason that it becomes biotoxic.  It raised the pH.See this is a perfect example of how much you aren't really someone who thinks about what's true.  If you did, you would realize that such a statement would require knowledge of a representative sample of "old ways" and a representative sample of "new ways".  Which you likely don't (putting aside that the terms themselves are pretty poorly defined).

Your suppositions are the voice of inexperience.
The solution need not be strong and can be
applied with a moistened cotton ball.

The Baking Soda solution to the problem goes
back over 100 years.  Even today certain underarm
preparations still contain Sodium Bicarbonate in
addition to their other 'Money' ingredients.

It is proven effective.  Of course it is so ridiculously
inexpensive and readily available that the 'Love of
Money' oriented corporate interests would rather
people used their costly products instead.

Knowledge is freedom from 'consumer' mentality.

For those who dare learn TRUTH.

So what mechanism do you imagine is at work here?  You are not plugging the pores and there's absolutely no way that a solution as incredibly weak as you're describing is having a anti-bacterial effect.  So what then?  Faries? Love? Magic?

You don't know do you?  You have absolutely nothing to offer in this respect. Which is the true voice of inexperience...and ignorance.

QuoteEven today certain underarm preparations still contain Sodium Bicarbonate

This is true but it's pretty interesting that you've got the "love of money" relation backward.  While it's possible that there is some clinical effect of sodium bicarbonate at the right dose.  It's far, far, far more likely that this is a company (for example Arm and Hammer) who is attempting to leverage peoples the gullibility of people...like yourself who believe in this folk remedy.  After all if it worked then that's all you would need in the product but if you look closely at A&H's Aluminum free "essentials" Natural deodorant - you'll see it contains triclosan.  An antibacterial agent.  If I was really looking to make money I'd leave that out.  The reason it's there is likely because it doesn't work very well without it.

QuoteIt is proven effective.

Then please provide a reference to a double-blind placebo-controlled study with an n>200 and I'll be convinced.

You can also rub dog crap under your arms to eliminate under arm odor.  This is proven to work, by thousands, possibly millions.  The list of studies that proves this are many in number and too long for me to mention, or link to any here.

Now, they are working on a "cure" for dog crap odor.

If you think you've been treated unfairly I'll give you another chance.  Please clearly state your argument and be prepared to clearly and directly respond to questions concerning it.

I currently have you on ignore.  I see that you post but I have to click on a link to see what you post.

I've always been a good dot connector...looks like my talents are needed again(wink wink nudge nudge).

His words:  "clearly state your argument"

Let me see if I can at least lead this horsey to water.

Now, if i just try reversing the order of his last post, maybe he'll see it.

Dots connected...fingers crossed.

Yawn.  Is your argument that there is no evidence that vaccines are effective or safe?

See the point of you actually stating your argument is then I don't have to constantly ask "Do you mean this?"
