Well the action is rather slow. If you mix and use them it should be fine. If you intend to mix them then store them for a day or more, than the bicarb is necessary to neutralize the acid. Bicarb is what the gall bladder produces to neutralize the acid from the stomach, so although it is a chemical, it should not be a problem. > > I would very much like to make a salve, not the > gelatin one, but am unable to trace a complete > recipe.
