## Editorial verdict
- Editorial score: 3.7 / 5.
- SodaMelt names all 12 of its ingredients, cites two specific
  published studies (PubMed IDs 35816465 and 1800188) with
  appropriate "background only" qualifiers, and prices its three
  bundles consistently against a $99-per-bottle reference price that
  checks out arithmetically.

## Key finding: the brand name and story don't match the formula
SodaMelt's official site features a dedicated section titled "The
Old-World Ritual Behind a Modern Wellness Habit," explaining the
historical use of sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) -- referencing
ancient Egyptian natron and 19th-century "digestive biscuits" -- and
explicitly stating "that old-world habit... is the same instinct
behind SodaMelt." The disclosed 12-ingredient formula (Alfalfa,
Psyllium Husk, Cascara Sagrada, Aloe Vera, Oat Straw, Chinese
Rhubarb, Scabrous Gentian, Goldenseal, Buckthorn, Bentonite,
Lactobacillus acidophilus, and Calcium) contains no sodium
bicarbonate at all. The official page does include its own
disclaimer ("this is the story that inspired our formula -- not a
medical claim"), which this review treats as an honest hedge, but
the product's name, circular logo styling, and a dedicated content
section are all built around an ingredient that isn't in the bottle.

## Other transparency notes
- 8 of the 12 ingredients sit inside an undosed "Proprietary Blend"
  with no individual milligram amounts; even the 4 ingredients given
  individual descriptions (Alfalfa, Psyllium Husk, Cascara Sagrada,
  Aloe Vera) aren't quantified.
- Three of the 12 ingredients -- Cascara Sagrada, Buckthorn, and
  Chinese Rhubarb -- are classic stimulant-laxative botanicals
  (anthraquinone-containing). General medical guidance typically
  advises against long-term, unsupervised use of stimulant laxatives,
  yet SodaMelt is explicitly marketed for consistent daily use over
  3 to 6 months. This review flags this as worth a specific
  conversation with a doctor.
- Goldenseal, also in the blend, carries its own known
  medication-interaction considerations not specifically called out
  beyond generic safety language.
- No named third-party testing of the finished product was found.
- No named customer testimonials or verified-purchaser count were
  found in the materials reviewed.

## What SodaMelt gets right
- Specific, named PubMed citations for two ingredients, with
  appropriate disclaimers that they describe the ingredient
  generally, not SodaMelt itself.
- Full inactive-ingredient disclosure (rice flour, hypromellose
  vegetable capsule, magnesium stearate, silicon dioxide) and a
  published physical distributor address.
- Bundle pricing is consistent across all three package sizes
  against a single $99/bottle reference price.
- 60-day money-back guarantee explicitly accepts empty bottles, "no
  questions asked."
- Explicitly a one-time payment with no subscriptions or
  auto-shipments.

## Pricing (confirmed)
$89 for 1 bottle, $59/bottle for 3 bottles ($177 total), $49/bottle
for 6 bottles ($294 total, plus 3 free bonus guides and free US
shipping on 3- and 6-bottle orders), each against a consistent
$99/bottle reference price. Sold only through the official website,
processed by Digistore24.

## This review does NOT
- Claim SodaMelt treats, cures, or prevents any disease.
- Assert that SodaMelt is a scam; the guarantee, pricing, and
  citation practices found were genuinely careful and consistent.
- Recommend long-term daily use of SodaMelt's stimulant-laxative
  botanicals without discussing it with a doctor first.
