I've posted before regarding my 92 y/o dad. My dad gets gout and suffers with it and it pains me to watch him deal with it. He started working when he was 13, was a lifer in the AF, worked when he got out, never stopped, even when he retired he always had a project. I go to his house early every morning, around 7 am. He said he could feel his gout coming on, as time progresses gout just gets worse. I have a stash of ivermectin at his house in case the need arises. I decided why not give him one, it can't hurt. Well hell, by the next morning the gout was gone. He said that has never happened...he was smiling. He has to deal with this every couple months so I'm going to stay on top of this and hope this is the answer.

Can you define a pinch (baking soda)?
So, start with very little as in, take an actual "pinch" measuring spoon but fill it less than a quarter. After a few days, make it half and then a few more days later you can mmake it a full "pinch" (dont heap it).
My pinch measure says 0.6 ml, so it would be around 1/8 tsp if you dont have a pinch measure.
My pinch measuring spoon is about 1/8 tsp.
Granted a US tsp is about 5ml, so maybe the pinch is closer to about 1/10 of a tsp.
A level pinch (on my measuring spoon leveled) is 0.5g of baking soda.
Pinching into my scale, it took 3 pinches (only thumb & index finger tips) to get 0.5g of baking soda.
Hope this helps u/MudPuddlePie

T/u! Never heard of a pinch measure.
If you have a living grandmother ask her. Grandmothers know all that stuff - a pinch, a dash - whatever.
Lol…yes.
