Borax Starting Dose For Ruptured Discs and Neuropathy?
I'm new to this. I am a 62 year old man weight about 260 lbs. I have neuropathy and ruptured disc's in my lower back. I also have tendinitis.
What would be a good starting dose for me?

Hi Razz,
Two of the most popular uses for borax are arthritis and osteoporosis. Ruptured discs and neuropathy, not so much, but boron has shown the ability to indirectly increase collagen production while offering anti inflammatory effects and stimulating fibroblast production which would all be useful toward repairing ruptured discs.
Human studies are lacking for boron as regards both issues, but animal studies are suggestive of potential benefit for nerve repair through various methods of action.
As far as dosing of borax, Ted's arthritis remedy dosing has been used successfully here on EC. Ted's dosing for men and women can be found here :

Also useful for degenerative disc disease (DDD) is this two supplement regimen using a specific hyaluronic acid product as described here :

Good luck and please keep us posted on your progress!
