Nope, never heard of that one. I have heard that doctors do not recommend 'baking soda' for heartburn or indigestion because the human body uses a complex formula of bases and acids to function properly and accomplish assorted mundane tasks.

Healthy diet and exercise is the only way to go. Baking soda is very alkaline. It can cause an ulcer in your stomach. Whoever told you this is messing with you. Don't be so gullible.

I've heard that if you mix a little baking soda with water and drink it, it gets rid of heart burn

it will cause awful damage to your kidneys and can upset the acidic balance of the acids in your stomach. do not try it.
on the other hand, baking soda is wonderful for whitening your teeth.

How would that help you lose weight? Better to drink a lot of water.

I'm pretty sure it will just make you throw up. Which will help you lose weight but isn't such a good idea.
