Borax
Well I have found an alternative cancer treatment center in Spain which is run by a medical doctor that advertises drinking borax in water for candida as part of their comprehensive cancer treatments. So this information was very comforting that this is a treatment being used outside of layman healing.

Hi Mable... There is quite alot of research available from the internet on borax or sodium tetraborate. Just type "Borax Health" in Google Search or go to Google Scholar and search there -- Google Scholar only searches scientific research, patents and journals.
Here is one piece of demographic research by Dr Rex Newham. He actually had chronic arthritis in his early thirties and used higher dosages of borax to cure his arthritis: www.rexnewnhamarthritiseducation.com/paper.asp
Since Ted has said that mycoplasma -- a fungal form of bacteria -- causes arthritis, it also makes sense that borax is probably also the ultimate fungal killer. I used borax as part of my own protocol to get rid of my candida and it worked very well.
The newer research has also found that mycoplasma is also frequently found in cancer cells.

All I did was type "mycoplasma cancer" in Google Scholar search and I got hundreds of research results. Mycoplasms are usually always found in cancer and leukemia cells and borax kills mycoplasma and candida so there is your reason why borax is useful against both candida and cancer.
The MSDS for borax also shows that borax has about the same toxicity as common table salt upon the human body.

I truly believe borox can kill Candida... Alkalinity is good for blood but hear it can lower stomach acid. The gut should be acidic as to my understanding.... Just confused I would get super constipated.

Hi Bill, I'm currently taking 3mg Boron (Albion/Bororganic Glycine) as part of a much wider repurposed meds and supplements cancer protocol. I realise the 20mg upper limit for Boron is a load of pish but it has meant most studies are below that threshold - how much did you need to get rid of candida?

Hallo Tanya
Take one to two grams of borax every morning and evening, not too late, with a glass of water. This amounts to 113-226 mg of boron. Start with one gram and increase slowly. Borax can have a detoxifying effect; if so, reduce the dosage. Take for 25 days, then take a 5-day break. Repeat 3 times. Change your diet, reducing carbohydrates and sugar.
EC: This dosage recommendation is significantly higher than Ted's commonly referenced borax protocol. Borax dosing recommendations shared by readers vary widely and are based on personal experience rather than established medical guidelines. If you choose to use borax, many readers prefer to begin with much smaller amounts to assess tolerance.

Summary
Borax consists of 11.3% boron by weight. Boron is a trace element. Borax is an inexpensive and natural way to obtain boron. The confusion between boron and boron is the error that invalidates most recommendations for boron intake and on which even official guidelines are based.
A researcher publishing under the pseudonym "Curious Outlier" calculated the positive animal doses using the FDA's standard conversion method from animal to human values. The relevant range for humans was between 9.6 and 113.5 mg of boron per day, with a median value of approximately 51 mg. This calculation had not been published for five decades.
The upper limit of 20 mg is based on reproductive toxicity in rats, divided by a safety margin of approximately 100. A brand-new drug with unknown risks receives a safety margin of 10. A mineral that humanity has ingested since time immemorial has been treated with less confidence than an unproven drug.
• By common toxicity criteria, borax is safer than table salt. A study of 784 accidental human poisonings with 10 to 88 grams of boric acid found no fatalities and no symptoms in 88 percent of cases.
Australia declared boron toxic at any concentration. The EU labeled it with a skull and crossbones symbol in 2010. The pattern resembles the burial of iodine, magnesium, vitamin K2, and vitamin D, and the temporal correlation suggests coordination rather than coincidence.
The commonly stated 3 mg is a lower limit disguised as a recommendation, not a therapeutic dose. The correct dosage, the conversion of borax to boron, the intake schedule and the mixture I use myself are described in detail in the "Dosage" section at the end.
