Borax

Met de atoommassa's is dat uit te rekenen.
17,48% boor in boorzuur H3BO3
ter controle
11,34 % boor in borax Na2B4O5(OH) 4 · 8 H2O

Knippen/plakken uit excel, dus ziet er niet perfect uit:
H3BO3 atoommassa procent
h 3 1,0079 3,0237
b 1 10,811 10,811 17,48455889
o 3 15,999 47,997
gram/mol 61,83 61,8317

En inderdaad wat Gerard zegt: zonder zekerheid voorlopig nog bij borax houden. Daarnaast zou ik iemand bij een drogist niet op zijn woord geloven als gezegd wordt dat het ok is om in te nemen.
 
@ Marijan, gebruik jij nu ook borax omdat ik hier las dat je het had aangeschaft? Omdat we het er eerder over hadden in het topic hielspoor https://www.fatsforum.nl/topic/hielspoor/#post-130988 : ik heb nog steeds last van in elk geval enigszins pijnlijke hakken in de ochtend als ik de avond ervoor borax ingenomen heb. Heb jij dit misschien ook? Ook mijn keel/schildklier (bij adamsappel) die voelde ik bij wakker worden.
 
So true, Alan.
After reading Mr Last’s article on Borax, at least four years ago, I began taking a small amount of it daily, probably about 1/16-1/8 tsp a day.
Recently I had to visit a new dentist for a root canal and he insisted on taking a facial X-ray. Who’s to argue. He kept saying I had very strong bones, at least six or seven times during the examination. I was too concerned during the preparation to ask questions, but the next appointment I asked him if he meant strong bones for my age. He replied “For any age”.

I have always been on the chubby size, never one for heavy exercise and I have never liked milk. I’ve always had a sweet tooth though I do temper it.
I have never had good teeth and was surprised and wondered if in this late stage in my life, I am sixty-four, as the song goes, the borax is now at least strengthening my bones and possibly living teeth areas. He told me that the outer teeth could not be strengthened by anything once mature. Not sure about that, but . . .
I occasionally take up to a teaspoon as a cleans and the first time I did this I saw white stringy things in my movement. It did not seem to bother my system in this amount.
I use it in my laundry, a solution of it in my shower to wash, with my baking soda to lightly brush my teeth & gargle, and I add a little to my Xylitol and water concoction for keeping my sinus problems at bay, and then spray in my eyes, eyebrows (immediately stopped the eyebrow itch).
Xylitol is also purported to strengthen bones and teeth. I have been using Xylitol for at least seven years and have not had a cold, flue or even a sniffle in all this time. Amazing for me.
As Walter suggests, many think borax is a poison, but to mammals it is not.
If borax and Xylitol do strengthen bones and teeth, wouldn’t it be a wonderful addition for all ages, children especially. Imagine children never having cavities and having super strong teeth and bones.
Namaste and care,

hoi Gerard, ja als je dat zo leest, en als het klopt dat die link er is, dan denk ik dat je gelijk hebt! De wonderen zijn zeker de wereld niet uit. Alleen zolang we in coma gesust blijven wel. Wie zoekt, vindt. Maar ja, als je gelooft in de nonsense over ongeneeslijkheid van ziekten, dan ga je niet meer verder zoeken en achterover hangen (wat ook wel veel voordelen heeft soms).
 
"The key study in this assessment was published in 1972. Why is this being dug up now to justify banning borax when it was of no concern for the past 40 years? It does not make any scientific sense, especially if you consider that the main chemical in the new borax substitute, sodium percarbonate, is about three times more toxic than borax."

@Marijan bedankt voor de tip! Vandaag is de Borax vanuit Culemborg verstuurd ?!
Aangezien Natriumbicarbonaat oa een goed transportmiddel is wil ik dit gaan toevoegen aan de magnesiumchloride en de borax......indien dit mogelijk is!

Dorien, Mooi leesvoer, waar o.a
Boron is distributed throughout the body with the highest concentration in the parathyroid glands, followed by bones and dental enamel. It is essential for healthy bone and joint function, regulating the absorption and metabolism of calcium, magnesium and phosphorus through its influence on the parathyroid glands. With this boron is for the parathyroids what iodine is for the thyroid.

Boron deficiency causes the parathyroids to become overactive, releasing too much parathyroid hormone which raises the blood level of calcium by releasing calcium from bones and teeth. This then leads to osteoarthritis and other forms of arthritis, osteoporosis and tooth decay. With advancing age high blood levels of calcium lead to calcification of soft tissues causing muscle contractions and stiffness; calcification of endocrine glands, especially the pineal gland and the ovaries; arteriosclerosis, kidney stones, and calcification of the kidneys ultimately leading to kidney failure. Boron deficiency combined with magnesium deficiency is especially damaging to the bones and teeth.

Ja, krijg nou de hik, ik heb inderdaad zere hakken. Had nooit de link gelegd (nog niet) Schildklier/keel niet.
Die (licht)zere hakken voel ik heel de dag. Is dat een soort bijwerking(gunstige werking)?

Ja dus, ik ben er ook mee begonnen.
2 gram in een derde liter en dan daarvan 2 theelepeltjes per dag.
 
hoi Marijan, ik las net dit:

In cases of longstanding and severe calcifications, temporary pain in the area of the calcifications (typically hips and shoulders) or in the kidneys, or numbness/reduced sensitivity in hands and feet. This is because the release of calcium into the immediate area or the blood happens more quickly than the body can redistribute the calcium to the bones where it belongs, or to excrete it. Note that these problems are temporary healing reactions that cannot be avoided if you want a higher level of health.

What to do if you have a side effect:

Please know that the side effects mentioned above are signs of healing, and are necessary if you want to improve your health. You can minimize the negative effect by:

•increasing fluid intake

•use more organic acids such as lemon juice, ascorbic acid, or vinegar

•improve lymph flow by rebounding, walking or inverted positions. A small personal trampoline is great for this. http://catsfork.com/Health-Systemic/Boron-Suplmt.html

Ik had ook ineens een bloedneus afgelopen weekend (teken van vitamine c-tekort, maar dus net nu ik -misschien iets te hard- aan het remineraliseren ben met borax) en alsof de duvel ermee speelde kreeg ik ineens ook gezwollen voeten net toen ik hier op het forum schreef dat ik in het verleden (en niet in het heden) oedeem had in mijn voeten. Dit opgeteld bij een jeukende eczeem op mijn huid die lijkt te maken te hebben met een herxheimerreactie en die mogelijk (werkhypothese) te maken heeft met een grotere biobeschikbaarheid van o.a. magnesium door de borax.
 
Die (licht)zere hakken voel ik heel de dag. Is dat een soort bijwerking(gunstige werking)?

hoi Marijan, heb je die licht pijnlijke zere hakken sinds je borax suppleert dat je weet? Als dat zo is, valt het denk ik zeker op te vatten als een bijwerking inderdaad. Zoals hierboven verwoord staat: die reacties zijn niet te vermijden als je beterschap wenst.
 
hoe lang gebruik jij dit nu Lievergezond,
ik pas een dag of 4.

En die zere hakken sinds 2 dagen!
Dat zou dan een goed teken moeten zijn.
 
hoi Marijan, ik weet het eigenlijk niet wanneer ik precies begonnen ben met de borax oraal gebruiken. Misschien twee weken geleden, mogelijk een maand.

Die pijn in je hakken komt dan zeker van de borax.
 
sorry Lievergezond, ik las je laatste zin van bericht 12.35 verkeerd, dus die opmerking van mij daaronder slaat nergens op.
Ik ga nu net versgebakken brood snijden voor de broodtrommel van mijn zoon.
Trust voor zo.

The following study, although enigmatic, appears to show that boron may affect thyroid function and the levels of T4 and T3.

Vopr Kurortol Fizioter Lech Fiz Kult 1989 May-Jun;(3):28-31

[Morphofunctional characteristics of the thyroid and a change in the level of thyroid hormones in the blood from the internal use of boron-containing waters].

[Article in Russian]

Korolev IuN, Panova LN, Bobkova AS, Korovkina EG

It has been established that intake of waters identical by Br concentrations (250 mg/l) but different by an ion-salt base leads to various structural changes of the thyroid at the tissue, cellular and subcellular levels. Artificial Br-containing water induces more pronounced shifts correlating with T3 and T4, blood concentrations. The ion-salt base was found essential in the mechanism of action of Br-containing water.

The following study shows that boron supplementation in males can increase estradiol (estrogen) and testosterone levels. This suggests that boron is involved in the conversion of progesterone into estradiol and testosterone. Since we have seen that hypers often have high progesterone levels and low estradiol levels (testosterone levels not known), this study offers more evidence that a boron deficiency may be involved in hyperthyroidism.

The effect of boron supplementation on its urinary excretion and selected cardiovascular risk factors in healthy male subjects.

Naghii MR, Samman S

The following study indicates that boron is involved in cognitive performance. Because of the observed decreases in mental functioning in thyroid disease it's important to consider all nutrients which may be involved in brain function. Also note that boron may be involved in membrane function. Since boron is a light element and many of the lighter elements are involved in the passage of the heavier elements through the cell walls, boron's function may be involved in this process. We have seen that other light elements like lithium perform functions regulating the passage of heavier elements like copper into the cells.

Dietary boron, brain function, and cognitive performance.
Penland JG

United States Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, Grand Forks, North Dakota 58202-9034.

The following study is a gold mine. The study shows that boron supplementation increases estradiol and testosterone and for reasons given above I believe that these results suggest that boron might be deficient in hyperthyroidism. Additionally boron was shown to decrease plasma concentrations of calcium. High calcium levels may be associated with increased heart rate. Since calcium and magnesium act as antagonists, this reduction of calcium by boron may allow magnesium levels to rise and thereby lower the heart rate and muscle cramps.

Additionally boron was shown to increase plasma copper, copper-zinc superoxide dismutase (SOD is one of the body's most important free radical scavengers), and ceruloplasmin (a protein which transports copper). Here is direct evidence that boron is essential for copper metabolism and therefore quite probably for the correction of hyperthyroidism and possibly hypothyroidism.

Furthermore, the study offers a possible explanation for why estrogen may slow thyroid function: it increases plasma copper, SOD, and ceruloplasmin. Boron also increased these variables whether estrogen was administered or not.

This is excellent documentation to support my observations that boron was important in my recovery from hyperT.

Biochemical and physiologic consequences of boron deprivation in humans.

The following study indicates that boron and molybdenum affect estrogen metabolism and concludes that "It is possible that high dietary intakes of boron or molybdenum could regulate the rate of catabolism, or even the metabolic fate of the major estrogens."

Borate and molybdate inhibition of catechol estrogen and pyrocatechol methylation by catechol-O-methyltransferase.

Beattie JH, Weersink E

Division of Biochemical Sciences, Rowett Research Institute, Bucksburn, Aberdeen, U.K.

The possibility that boron and molybdenum anions can influence sex steroid metabolism by forming complexes with catechol estrogens has been studied in vitro. The formation of 2-methoxyestrone (2-OHE1 2-Me) from 2-hydroxyestrone (2-OHE1) by catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) was followed by measuring the transfer of the radiolabeled methyl group from S-adenosylmethionine. In the presence of both sodium tetraborate and sodium molybdate using a phosphate buffer medium, the formation of 2-OHE1 2-Me decreased as the anion:2-OHE1 molar ratio was increased. However, the reverse effect was observed when using a tris buffer medium and further investigation showed that phosphate and sulphate also enhanced COMT activity in a tris buffer medium. Boric acid affinity medium, used as a substitute for borate salt, also showed a negative relationship with enzyme activity in a phosphate buffer medium, and inhibition of methylation was more marked than with the free anion. Erythrocytes contain appreciable amounts of COMT, which is mostly responsible for the rapid O-methylation of catechol estrogens in blood. The methylation of a simple catechol compound, 1,2-dihydroxybenzene (pyrocatechol) was therefore studied using rat red blood cell lysates. Methylation was inhibited in a concentration-related manner by borate, as found in the studies of 2-OHE1. It is possible that high dietary intakes of boron or molybdenum could regulate the rate of catabolism, or even the metabolic fate of the major estrogens.

This is the original USDA study which showed that boron supplementation increases estrogen and testosterone in postmenopausal women. The study also showed that boron "markedly reduced the urinary excretion of calcium and magnesium," interacts with magnesium metabolism, and the boron effects were not negated by a high intake of aluminum (1000 mg per day). It seems as though boron conserves magnesium and calcium, prevents the bone demineralization, and protects against osteoporosis.

Comparative effects of daily and weekly boron supplementation on plasma steroid hormones and proinflammatory cytokines.
Naghii MR1, Mofid M, Asgari AR, Hedayati M, Daneshpour MS.
After one week (in samples taken at 8.00 A.M, only), the mean plasma free testosterone increased and the mean plasma estradiol decreased significantly. Dihydrotestosterone, cortisol and vitamin D was elevated. Also, concentrations of all three inflammatory biomarkers decreased after supplementation. Of note, despite decreased proinflammatory cytokines, based on recent clinical data, this must be the first human study report to show an increase level of free testosterone after boron consumption. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21129941

Boron
Without boron, the absorption of calcium can be limited and often underutilized.1 Researchers have concluded that boron is an essential factor in facilitating the bone-building effects of key nutrients such as calcium, magnesium, and vitamin D. Numerous studies demonstrate boron is critical to maintaining and improving one’s bone health.1 Healthy bones, however, are just the beginning of the boron story. http://www.lef.org/magazine/2006/8/aas/Page-01
