Interesting. Never heard of this, but I'll be looking into it.
I think Borax, slightly different than boric acid. I think borax is ok to take internally, measured amounts, but not boric acid. They are different.
Actually boric acid is a more refined form of borax that contains more boron. It's a better insecticide than borax due to its finer particles.

And bc it has a higher boron content

I guess so. My mom uses boric acid on her eyes but I haven't heard of anyone taking it internally. I've heard of people ingesting borax. So just wanted to make sure you were aware.
To clarify, a lot of the bad stuff you read online states "when large amounts are injested" ...I started with 1/16 top and increased to about a tsp over several weeks. I used to suffer from bad knee pains and after about a month it's gone. I've been taking this for about 1.5yrs now
