Since LS is an autoimmune disorder it seems to me that one should Address our immune systems.
I am keen to try the Borax in water formula to increase mineral absorption but would like to hear from anyone that’s actually taking it. I know that some LS sufferers use it successfully as a soak and spray, which makes me think internally could be beneficial.
I struggle to reach minimum levels of Sodium constantly and read Borax will assist that besides boosting the immune system.
I take Mag, D3, K2, B Complex, Vit C so should be healthy as but if I’m not absorbing them it won’t be doing a lot of good, Borax might just be the answer.
Thoughts ladies?
I was drinking borax water for arthritis, stiff joints, prior to being diagnosed with LS. I use 1/8th of a teaspoon of borax powder in a litre of non-tap water and I would drink about half of this in a day, 4 days a week, as this was the recommended dose from another source. I've used the borax powder diluted in a sitz bath to relieve LS symptoms.
Thanks Frances did you have any side effects at all internallY?
I bought a Sitz bath that sits on the toilet, such a time saver, so will try Borax next time I need a soak.
Hi,
I don’t know if this helps but I’m taking ‘Natural Vitality Natural Calm Plus Calcium’ which contains Boron to aid absorption. I was worried about taking an exact dose and was happy to discover it’s included in their magnesium & calcium supplement. (Not in the magnesium only one.) It also contains Vit D3 too.

I am astounded that anyone would take Borax internally !!
This is the reason it was banned in the UK 🇬🇧
Borax is a laundry agent and whilst I have used it myself ( after ensuring it was as Pure as you can get ) with good results some time ago.
Never would I drink it.
