Aluminum. It's OK to use baking soda to clean your aluminum pots and pans, but it's just important to remember to rinse them right after. “Baking soda can cause aluminum to oxidize,” says Jack Prenter, founder of Chore Bliss.

Can baking soda damage your enamel?

Use proper brushing techniques — Baking soda has an abrasive nature. While it's great at removing built-up plaque and surface stains, it can also damage your enamel if you brush with it too aggressively. Don't overuse the product — Don't use baking soda for whitening purposes more than twice a week.

Does milk whiten your teeth?

Dairy products, such as cheese, yogurt and milk, contain lactic acid and the enamel-fortifying mineral calcium, which strengthen teeth while also whitening them. Chewing on cheese also prompts production of saliva, which washes away staining food particles.
