Detailed Solution

  • When hydrogen carbonate reacts with stomach acid (hydrochloric acid), it forms carbon dioxide gas, water, and a salt. 
  • The release of carbon dioxide gas can cause bloating and belching. 
  • Additionally, excess consumption of bicarbonate can lead to the overproduction of acid by the stomach in response to the sudden increase in alkalinity. 
  • This can exacerbate symptoms of heartburn and acid reflux.
