Non-underscore way of specifying subscripts in org-mode

[Nordlöw]

How do I prevent org-mode from interpreting my underscores as
subscript formatting? How can I instead choose another way of
specifying them. I really think underscores only is a bad way to
represent subscripts  since I want to specify indentifiers as they are
so that I can grep and search/replace them inside my project just as I
do with code.

Thanks in advance,
