Have any of you here heard of using Boron (Borax) to relieve aches and pains associated with arthritis?
I heard about it on another forum that I frequent. They were saying how 1/4 Teaspoon per day would help a great deal.
I was skeptical, but I tried it, and to my surprise it really did help, in fact outside of my pinched nerve almost all of my other aches and pains have diminished or totally disappeared. All in about a week.
Has anyone else here tried this?
I use 20 Mule Team Borax, since it is pure Boron, with nothing else added.
If I hadn't seen your other posts, here, Stockman, I'd think you were a jokester or troll. Your post reminds me of the "Saturday Night Live" faux commerical: Her: "It's a furniture polish." Him: "No, it's a dessert topping!" Announcer: "You're both right! It's a furniture polish and a delicious dessert topping!"
Sorry to have left that impression -- incorrect, I believed you, because I have seen some of your other posts and have been convinced that you are a serious contributor (although it is conceivable you were engaging in some gentle leg-pulling). It seems odd that a product I've always considered to be used for cleaning laundry could be safely taken internally.
And now I find other evidence that supports what you've written, which convinces me that you were not even pulling our legs: http://www.goodsearch.com/search-web?utf8=%E2%9C%93&keywords=%2Bborax+%2Bpain!
