Well baking powder for sure contains baking soda which if mixed with water is a homeopathic way to treat heartburn.It also contains cornstarch,sodium alluminum sulfate and calcium sulfate. I'm sure it's not very tasty. I thought that pica was an eating disorder where people crave and eat non-food items like dirt and chaulk and the like. If you were to eat to much my guess is that you would get too much of a sodium intake which could in turn cause dehydration.

Why would you do that anyways?
Im sure it doesnt taste delightful!

...Why do that? lol

Some people with Pica do eat baking powder but they also eat lots of other things that may or may not be food items. Baking powder tastes kind of salty but other than that there isn't much of a taste. It's not very good. I don't think you can really cause problems by eating it but just about anything can be bad if taken in great quantities. Even water can kill you if you drink enough of it.

Baking powder helps muscles And eating baking powder helps disperse lactic acid from the muscles is another well-known technique.

i heard it can help your sex drive!!!!!!!!
