I have done some more research. I also checked some of this material
that had been made. I found that the compound I am talking about has
the chemical name of sodium sucrate. I found when the maple syrup and
bicarb of soda are made, the remaining liquid become very thick, almost
like if gelatin was added. Exploring the properties of sucrate I find
that it becomes gelatin like when water is added. Some reading also
indicates that under some conditions the sucrate polymerizes with the
sucrose, making longer chained compounds, which would explain the strong
thickening.
Anyway I found references which say that sodium sucrate can be easily
made by mixing lye (sodium hydroxide) and sucrose with alcohol and
heating. This might be a way to produce some of this to experiment
with. For instance some sources say that sucrate is insoluble in
water. So does mixing with water and sucrose with heat produce a linked
compound which is then soluble as some references say? Does addition of
hydrochloric acid (stomach acid), cause it to hydrolyze making sodium
glucate and or sodium fructate? I can find no references that speak of
a sodium glucate NaC6H11O6, but only sodium gluconate NaC6H11O7 which is
certainly not desirable.
I think some experimenting on this might prove interesting.

For several years there has been an anticancer protocol that mixes

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 increase 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.
