Taking Borax in Capsules

Posted by Susan (NC) on 02/27/2026

Is there any reason why I can't take 1/8 tsp. Borax in 1 or more 00 capsules, with a full glass or 2 of water? The taste and smell of the solution is so off-putting to me. Please let me know if anyone has tried this and what the effects were. Thank you.

Dear Susan,

I have taken borax in capsules with water. I have not had an issues doing it that way. I have also added it to coffee. I find that completely masks the taste.

Hello,

As mentioned before, and regarding the purity of borax in general, why don't you and others take Boron tablets?

I am at a loss understanding why people keep taking borax in water, asking about ratios, now using capsules, etc.

The benefit in borax is essentially boric acid which is boron. Boron tablets from any supplement store is safer than borax any day.

Boron is a wonder supplement. It has changed my life and my wifes as well. No arthritis, no calcium deposits on bones, no issues at all.

Again, I mean no disrespect to anyone trying to help with natural cures, thats why we are here, but Boron is easier to dose, safer to use and has no risk of contaminants.

Someone please explain?
