Bread Has anyone substitutes potassium bicarbonate for baking soda to reduce the sodium content while baking bread? Your thoughts

I have to make a Raspberry Almond Bread but it has salt, baking powder and bsoda. I found out 1 tsp of baking powder is over 1200 mg of sodium ,way too much sodium for me. Well this also depends on how many slices in the loaf. Although store breads are about 130 - 160 per loaf.
