Borax Dosing

1 month ago
Posted by Jse (Canberra Australia) on 05/23/2025

I'm curious as to why it's recommended to take borax diluted in a liter of water over several hours. I've heard of some people who take 1/8 to 1/4 TSP in their morning coffee. Is that not advisable?

Second question - Dr Jorgas Flechas gave his wife 150 mg of borax daily to reverse osteoporosis. Has anyone had a similar experience? If you have what dose did you take and how long before you saw results?

Hi Art! Thanks for your response. Hopefully this will be my last question to make sure I am following the best protocol for my knee OA. Right now I am drinking the Borax water (5 days on and 2 days off) and using the Melatonin Lotion 3x a day. In browsing this site, I saw people also using baking soda along with the Borax. Do you recommend this? If so, how much should I add to the daily mixture?

I would like to know this, as well. If I ever had to have surgery for it, I would rather have the stones sucked out than a whole organ removed.

Was the Thieves oil irritating at all for your mom? I am treating cellulitis with antibiotics and steroid ointment. Most everything I've tried has irritated my skin or not worked. It started out as contact dermatitis, so I don't know if that's why I'm having difficulty. Fortunately, the antibiotic seems to be working, even though I prefer not to take it.

@ Arwa (Dubai)

The 1.87% Ivermectin gel (or paste), which is the same strength as the human version which is a pill. I followed the (per weight) directions on the back. Take 4 bar's worth = 125lbs. (by your weight) once a day for 3 days. Mild apple flavor taste. Washed it down with water. Many farm and feed stores offer it like TSC “Tractor Supply Company” here in the USA.

Everyone I have treated with Ivermectin has been with the horse paste. It easy to acquire, no questions asked, OTC.

Note: I've been hearing rumors about third party seller are selling some Horse Paste sold on Amazon being COUNTERFEITS. Probable made in China. The cap and syringe are the wrong colors and shape. Durvey the manufacture of ivermecin horse paste is aware of this problem and has informed Amazon

Good question. I've been taking ACV for a few weeks now and thank G-d no reaction. I take less, though. (1tbsp in a cup of water, twice daily). I once tried taking a higher dose but I got nauseous from it, so I keep to my lower dose and like what it's doing for me.

Thanks Christine. I just reread this, and I'm ready to try your suggestion. When I looked on Amazon they only had 2% lugols solution, not 5%. Will the 2% solution work? If not, where can I get the 5% solution?

Heavy Metals, Agent Orange Exposure and Triple Bypass

Risk assessment

I'm somewhat maybe you could say contaminated! In the Marines at 17 years old, with training time at Camp LeJeune during water contamination, served at Ramasun Station with Agent Orange exposure, spent 40 years as a machinist/Tool Maker where I've been diagnosed with heavy metal exposure. 10 years ago had triple bypass! Weirdly I function fairly well on my little mini farm and keep up with a fairly physical and outside labors but wondered what I at 72 years old ought to be on the lookout for and preventative measures to carry on naturally?

  Hair Dryer for Scabies

Here I thought I "invented" this method. Lol BUT IT WORKS WELL. Like other people r sayi.g, it works instantly.u can feel all the scabies moving/trying to get away from the heat. That entire section of ur skin under the heat comes alive. Be sure that u can suffer 122-124°f temps. That inself is torturous but it works.

I also turned the hotwater heater up to 130°f so im getting about 124°f out of the shower head.this works well to especially for places u cant reach nor put Ivermectin or Permethrin cream on. I live alone (I got scabies from x, what a "gift"). Anyway the hot showers are what I started with and most of the scabies have cleared out off my belt line and everywhere else EXCEPT for that one little spot in the middle of my back. Treatment continues.

Anything and every piece of clothing that I take off instantly goes in the dryer. My dryer is 138° consistantly. For bed linings I dry one pice at a time to make sure that high temp hits everypart of the linines.

I have this for a 5-6 weeks but I only knew I had scabies for 2 wks now. After reading other post I guess I may have several more weeks to rid the house and of these horrible microscopic demons. O m g! I HATE THEM.

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE.

Question About Lysine Dosage in Ted's Cancer Protocol

Question on Lysine in Ted's Cancer protocol/remedy

Hello Ted and Earth Clinic ....I have been diagnosed with rectal cancer ...and have begun alkalizing my body. I happened upon Ted's recommendations and will definitely add these to my regime, however I wasn't certain of the quantity if lysine to be taken every hour up until bedtime. Th pills I have are 500 mg -- should I be taking 1 pill only and before bed take 8 pills --- or is the intention to gradually work up to 4000 per day's end. Is this to be done every day until cancer is eradicated/healed? Thank you for your clarification!

Nebulized fosfomycin has been explored as a potential treatment for chronic sinusitis, with some studies suggesting it can help reduce inflammation and improve symptoms.

Explore using a trace of thyme essential oil in a nebulizer and or hydrogen peroxide. Take a sterile solution for nebulizers (usually sold in 5ml plastic vials) and introduce a trace ( 1 drop is too much) of the medicinal quality thyme EO. Distilled or purified boiled water is also fine. Thyme EO has the highest antibacterial, anti fungal, antiviral properties. Since it is impossible without a biopsy to determine the cause of your sphenoid sinus opacification I don't think it will hurt to try. The mist will reach the brain and all sinus cavities.

Hi Anna Girl,

No problem with 3x a day if it does not make you feel tired. Some people are sensitive to melatonin and it can make them feel tired during the day. I have a high tolerance for melatonin and don't get tired.

A quarter level full teaspoon is correct. Some friends have reported that it takes more vodka than gin to fully dissolve the melatonin powder.

Please keep us posted on your progress.

Borax for Pets and Easier oOral Dosing for People?

Borax for Pets and Easier oOral Dosing for People?

Trying to give a litre of water to a pet is difficult! Sipping a litre throughout the day and being consistent for a human is difficult. So I figured... greater concentration in the litre bottle combined with less frequent but greater 'sips' might work.

Starting with Walter Last's 1 teaspoon Borax in a litre of (distilled) water, of which we know that 1 teaspoon gives 3 mg Boron.

Therefore 18 teaspoons would give you 56mg Boron.

Divide this 18 teaspoons into 6 teaspoons 3 times a day. (Giving 18.66mg Boron per dose) (Also the litre doesn't have to be made up every day)

This would be manageable to give to a dog or for a female human (double the dose for a male). (4 or 5 days a week?)

Can anyone see a problem with this, please? Or has anyone tried this way? I understand it's horses for courses (pardon the pun) but topical application with DMSO is difficult on a very hairy dog!

Art...you have been wonderful! I really appreciate your advice. I'm beginning to get the hang of it as far as focusing on the borax drink and melatonin lotion. Staying with these two things is good counsel.

You asked whether I made a weaker lotion. I used the recipe that you gave for melatonin lotion:

    • Take your four-ounce jar and add one level full one-quarter measuring teaspoon of melatonin powder into the jar.
    • Add one ounce of gin to the melatonin in the jar. Replace the lid and shake well until the gin looks clear again.
    • Add 2 ounces of Cetaphil lotion to the jar. Replace the lid and shake until well-mixed.

I used vodka instead of the gin because I had organic vodka on hand.

I used the link provided for the melatonin powder which is Bulk Supplements 3 mg. Are you suggesting that I increase the powder in my mixture?

Today I am going to use the lotion 3x to see how that works and continue to drink the borax mixture with 1/8 t of Borax.

Thank you again for your help!

Hi sixwolves,

In my opinion, Walter Last's borax protocol is too weak to work for the majority of people whereas Ted's borax protocol is likely to be more effective for most people. from my personal experience I know that Walter's remedy would not have worked for me, but Ted's remedy has kept my PA in remission for 17 pain free years.

Here is a link to EC's Borax page which describes Ted's Borax remedy :

★★★☆☆

I am using the heaping teaspoon in 1 liter of water method. I take 1 teaspoon 3x daily. I began using it for arthritis. It's been almost 3 months and I haven't seen any improvement at all. I feel frustrated after reading so many testimonials of how it has helped others. I'm not giving up yet, but I'm beginning to feel defeated.
