Question

even though baking soda is best disinfecting why should it not be used excessively

Answer 1

There are a few problems to keep in mind should you overconsume baking soda. Applying it to your teeth long-term can erode tooth enamel, as with combining baking soda with an acid as a DIY tooth whitener. Thanks to its high sodium content, it’s also possible to consume too much baking soda. An overload of sodium can cause vomiting and diarrhea, as well as more serious problems like seizures and kidney failure. When using it as an antacid, it can actually make GI problems worse if it produces too much gas. Alarmingly, in rare instances, taking it after eating a large meal can cause a stomach rupture. The National Capital Poison Center recommends sticking to safer products like Tums. Finally, because of its sodium content, you’ll also want to check with your doctor before taking it if you have high blood pressure. that's why it should not be used excessively
