Borax for Interstitial Cystitis

Hi Stephanie (Nevada). What I did each day was measure out a rounded 1/8th of a teaspoon and put it in a Ramekin. Then I would take a pinch and put it in each cup of coffee (about 4 cups) in the morning. I would use most of it in the morning, but would still have a little left over in the Ramekin to put in warm spring water in the evening.

I used 2 different kinds of litmus paper by (Hydrion, bought on Amazon) to measure the PH of my drinks and my coffee which went from being acidic to alkaline with Borax in it and also bought litmus paper from the same company and place that is used to measure the PH of saliva and urine. My urine went from 5.5 to 7.0 - 8.0 within a 2 to 3 days.

I used up to a 1/4 of a teaspoon on some days. I weigh just a little over 100 lbs.

It not only took away the left sided kidney pain, but also stopped the excruciating burning bladder pain of Interstitial Cystitis.

Hopefully, you feel confident enough now to give the regular grocery store 20 Mule Team brand a try, to see if it can help with whatever is ailing you.

Blessings, Kim.

P.S. I would greatly appreciate, if EC could add/create this information under Conditions of both "Borax Health Benefits" and under Remedies for "Interstitial Cystitis" to create a known remedy/cure for Interstitial Cystitis. Thank you.

Hi Kim, although I have not used diluted dmso orally I do use it topically. I have read that it is prescribed by doctors for interstitial cystitis. You should look into the many benefits of DMSO and how to dilute for oral use. No prescription is needed to purchase DMSO however if you can get a doctor to prescribe it, I'm sure it will have specific dosage directions for use.

Is sodium borate the same as sodium tetraborate?

Hi Terri J Wright,

Sodium borate and sodium tetraborate are considered to be the same.
