Sodium bicarbonate is a magic substance which has so many uses, it almost looks like it's a cheat in the matrix: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_bicarbonate#Uses

From the list:

- cooking (leavenant, baking powder, etc.)

- fungicide and pest control

- pH increase

- pyrotechnics

- disinfectant

- fire extinguisher

- medical (addon for laxatives, antidepressant, anesthetics, anti-tear gas)

- hygiene (addon for toothpaste, mouthwash)

- short-term doping

- cleaning agent

... and now deodorant !
