For several years there has been an anticancer protocol that mixes
baking soda and maple syrup and upon heating forms a compound which has
anticancer properties. In attempting to research what this chemical
might be I found a number of people asking if anyone knew. Several
replies from people who talked like they were chemists stated that
sucrose does not combine directly with bicarbonate of soda. They really
should have known better than to give this pat answer. Although the
statement is true, it has nothing to do with the problem. Further
research indicates that you must use maple syrup and not table sugar,
and if you compare the result of heating it with no, it is obvious some
type of reaction has taken place. This tells you that there are other
compounds in the maple syrup that are taking place in the reaction.
There are at least 54 known active compounds in maple syrup and probably
hundreds.
One of the most prominent group of compounds are the sulfates. They
could be sodium sulfate, potassium sulfate, calcium sulfate, sodium or
potassium bisulfate and a number of other possibilities. In all
likelihood there is a combination of these sulfates. As it turns out a
sulfate will take part in a series of reactions which will produce a
compound of sodium and sucrose, without using up the sulfate. This is
basically a catalyst, although it does get involved in the reactions
before becoming restored.
Here is the sequence:
sucrose is C12H22O11, bicarb of soda is NaHCO3, and for this example we
will be using sodium bisulfate Na2SO4 although all the others should be
able to take place in a similar series of reactions.
C12H22O11 + NaHCO3 + NaHSO4 -> C12H23NaO15S + CO2 + NaOH
C12H23NaO15S is a compound known as Sodium sucrose sulfate. A better
presentation would actually be C12H23NaO11SO4 because in reality the SO4
is the sulfate radical, and although the sucrose part is held together
by strong covalent bonds, the sulfate is attached with a weak ionic
bond. This compound is known for its ability to grow hair back for
male patten baldness.
Now there is an excess of NaCO3 which is alkaline, and the sodium
sucrose sulfate is acid, so naturally they will immediately react producing:
C12H23NaO11SO4 + NaHCO3 - > C12H21NaO11 + NaHSO4 + H2O + CO2
Giving a sucrose with one hydrogen replaced with a sodium, water, and
returning the original sodium hydrogen sulfate
Alternatively it could react with the sodium hydroxide:
C12H23NaO11SO4 + NaOH -> C12H21NaO11 + NaHSO4 + H2O
once again returning the same three products but without the CO2
The sucrose with one or more hydrogens replaced with sodium is the
interesting item. When it reaches the stomach it should hydrolyze just
like sucrose, which produces glucose and fructose. But since one of the
hydrogen atoms is replaced with a sodium atom, it would produce a sodium
salt of glucose, sodium salt of fructose, or both if more than one
hydrogen atom had been replaced with sodium. Now if a cancer takes up
the sodium salt of glucose, sodium is released, immediately forming
sodium hydroxide dropping the pH in the cell immediately to a level
which kills the cell.
Of course this makes one wonder, what happens if it is taken up by a
normal cell. There are two possibilities, first it kills it, or second
that the drop in pH does not injure the cell, since normal cells are not
killed as easily by alkalinity as cancer cells. I suspect the second
case is the correct one.
