I’ve started exploring taking cds (8-10 times a day, sensitive protocol). I would like to start with borax (bought a bottle borax-boron solution “about 150 ppm borax”). Anyone know if it is dangerous (acc to Google AI) or safe to combine the two? Tnx.

I've ordered a pharmaceutical grade Borax from " PERSCRIBED FOR LIFE." The package lists a serving size of 1/16 of a teaspoon consisting of 250 mg Borax containing 27 mg of Boron.
Using "Ted's" protocol for men of 1/4 teaspoon in a litre of water sipped throughout the day would deliver 1000 mg borax containing 108 mg of boron per day.
The " Walter Last" style stock solution on the other hand, lists 1 teaspoon of Borax dissolved in 1 quart of water with 1-2 teaspoons/day. One teaspoon = 4000 mg of Borax and 432 mg of boron. One quart of water contains 192 teaspoons. 192 teaspoons ÷ 432 mg of boron = 2.25 mg of boron / teaspoon. 2 × 2.25 = 4.5 mg/ day.
So Ted's protocol delivers 108 mg of boron/ day and Walter Last only 4.5! How are these 2 protocols comparable?
Further research on a substack called "CURIOUS OUTLIER" states that the human equivalent dose derived from animal studies on boron is 0.81 mg/ kg. I weigh 97.5 kg which comes out to 78.975 mg of boron per day. Please, is my arithmetic and reasoning correct?

First, put borax in a small salt plastic shaker bottle that you can buy cheaply on Amazon. This is not only great for the method I am about to tell you, but will allow you to add borax to coffee, water, etc, in small amounts.
Have a sock ready!
Sitting down with your foot over your other knee, apply a layer of vaseline to the bottom of your foot and in between your toes. If you have ever had a rash on the side or top of your foot, also rub vaseline there too. Sprinkle borax generously from the salt shaker over the foot and in between the toes. I use my other hand to catch the powder from falling onto the ground. Rub in gently and fast. Put your socks on and go about your day. Your athlete's foot will be gone within 1-2 days. Amazing and effective remedy.
Applying the vaseline first is the secret to this method, otherwise the borax powder gets rubbed off when you put your foot into the sock.
Report back if you try this AF cure!

Why this ingredients:
Borax (i.e. Boric acid) is a mild, topical antiseptic used to inhibit bacterial and fungal growth on the skin. Boric acid is primarily used medically as a vaginal suppository to treat recurrent yeast infections and bacterial vaginosis, especially cases resistant to conventional antifungal treatments. It acts as an antiseptic, antifungal, and antiviral agent, helping to balance vaginal pH and odor. It is also used in eye drops, ear drops, skin antiseptic solutions applied to cuts, scraps and burns, and for athlete's foot.
It acts as a bacteriostatic and fungistatic agent, meaning it inhibits the growth of bacteria (like E. coli and various streptococci) and fungi (like Candida), rather than killing them outright. They work in conjunction with the host's immune system to eliminate infections by inhibiting bacterial protein production, DNA replication, or metabolism. Common bacteriostatic antibiotics include tetracyclines (e.g., doxycycline), macrolides (e.g., erythromycin, azithromycin), sulfonamides, and clindamycin..It is effective against antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Boric acid can kill parasites, specifically Trichomonas vaginalis (causing trichomoniasis) through vaginal suppositories. It acts as a desiccant against pests like insects and flea larvae.
Epsom Salt is high in magnesium. Magnesium is essential for skin health, offering benefits such asboosting hydration, reducing acne, calming inflammation (rosacea/eczema), and combating signs of aging. It helps improve skin barrier function, repairs cells, and regulates sebum, making it effective for both dry and oily skin types. Topically, it can improve elasticity and reduce cortisol.
Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate)can help soothe itchy, inflamed, or irritated skin from rashes, poison ivy, eczema, and sunburn by reducing inflammation and promoting healing.
Bacterial and Fungal infections thrive in warm, moist environments, making prevention and effective treatment essential. Epsom salt, chemically known as magnesium sulfate, is a naturally occurring mineral compound renowned for its therapeutic properties

Hello,
Hoping you can steer me in the right direction. I would like to start Borax protocols but don't know if it will interact with anything I take now or in the near future. Someone in my Borax group suggested I message you. Current and future protocols include : MMS, BORAX, Baking Soda, IVERMECTIN, Oil of Oregano, Nicotine patches, Turpentine, Colloidal Silver, etc. I have Chronic Lyme disease and hypothyroidism. I'm on Ivermectin sometimes, Oil of Oregano and Colloidal Silver. Also taking Multivitamins, HRT therapy and Bovine Thyroid (NDT). It's frustrating because I don't know what can and cannot be combined. I try to space everything at least 2 hours apart but it can be difficult when I'm still working.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

I drank 1/8 teaspoon in 2liters of water throughout the day two days ago. My urine is very cloudy and foul smelling, although not as bad as it was the first night. Why does this happen and what can I do about it? Thank you

BORAX: B4Na2O7.10H2O, Sodium borate decahydrate
ALLEDGEDLY,
If humans have (2) kinds of blood: Iron Rich Blood (positive blood types) and Copper Rich Blood (negative blood types), then there should exist TWO standards for treatments. There is not a "one cure fits all".
BORAX, therefore, is only a suitable metal detox for bloods that are rich in copper and are RH-.

One gram of borax contains approximately 11.3% boron by weight, which equates to 113 milligrams of boron. This percentage is consistent across multiple sources, including chemical analyses and product descriptions. The exact amount can vary slightly depending on the specific form of borax (e.g., decahydrate, pentahydrate), but 11.3% is a widely accepted value for sodium tetraborate decahydrate, the most common form. Therefore, in 1 gram of borax, there is about 0.113 grams, or 113 mg, of elemental boron.

So I am not sure why Borax is so popular but Boron is not. Boron is life changing indeed. Borax maybe so as well. But it astounds me why people do not take Boron instead of Borax.
Boron is regulated and has a proven track record. We take 6 mg a day, and some weeks we up it to 9 mg a day, (3 mg tabs) and it has done wonders. Neither my wife or I have any bone, joint, arthritic pain, and at last check no more arthritis.
We have never tried borax for the very reason that it is not regulated for safety, and can have contaminants in it. In fact it can be severely contaminated as in processing it can be processed in places where other toxic powders are processed as well.
Now by saying this post, do not assume I am against people helping or curing themselves through natural solutions. I am not. Our whole life has been about that. I am just concerned that you could be getting more than you bargained for using borax, instead of boron.
