I read this topic on here about 3 months ago and decided to give it a try. In the last few years my wrists and certain finger joints began to ache 24/7. I'm in my early 50's and always have been very fit, active, and health conscious and know my body very well. I also have suffered from osteoarthritis in my lower back for decades due to injury.
I started with 1/4 teaspoon of borax in my morning shake after workout. Drank my normal 2 litres of water by lunch and then added another 1/4 teaspoon to plain water for my afternoon 1.5 litres.
Within a week my wrists and fingers were about 60-70% better and I could feel something happening in my back and knees. At first there was some different areas of mild discomfort (and this is expected as the calcium deposits break up) and now they are pain free after about 3 months. There are many other positive health effects with boron supplementation as well as antiviral, anti-fungal plus anti-tumour properties. Check it out:
how much iodine and what kind? I have providone iodine in the medicine cabinet for mouth wash and nasal spray. I don't think it's good to digest. And how much? Dosage always seem to be a problem for me. I have been using the borax for a week now and the swelling is down and so is the pain. Thanks for your help.
I use nascent iodine, you can purchase it on Amazon. Usually the dose is four or five drops. I’m so happy for you.
