Borax Caused Stomach Pain and Diarrhea

Posted By Jean (Visalia, California) on 04/25/2012

Please help me. I started taking borax 1/8 teaspoon in one liter of water throughout the day. I started getting stomach pain right after taking sips of it. The pain started out as mild and would come and go. By the third day of taking it the pain became worse and remained most of the time along with diarrhea. I have not taken the borax for four days but I still have the pain and diarrhea. Yesterday I started drinking aloe Vera juice and last night I used a castor oil pack to try to get over these effects. Do you have any suggestions for me?

20 mule team borax is now scented and should never be taken internally, could be very dangerous.
