Jam1, You make too many assumptions....... I have read that the dosage of boron in the form of borax is about 1/8 teaspoon to 1/4 teaspoon. However according to my calculations: 1/8 teaspoon = 0.625 ml 0.625 ml of borax = 0.625 x 1.73 (density of borax) = 1.08g of borax Theory and practice can differ... and it can get confusing. For starters, there are too many assumptions. #1) You say ’Borax’. However, what kind of Borax? Do you actually have Borax that is 99.99% pure? Or, are you talking about the 20 Mule Team Borax? #2) You say ’teaspoon’. However, what k ...

what time of day is best to take this. Some experts say to take in the morning so you will sleep better (my current problem) other experts insist that this be taken at night since Vit D is considered a hormone. Who is correct? There is only one thing that counts; you need to take it with food, and preferably with your fattiest meal of the day. Vitamin D won’t help you, if you take it in between meals, or if you take it with a low-fat meal. The exact time of your meal makes little or no difference.-   [End]

I’m a 33yr old female. I have what was listed on the ultrasound report as a “3.3cm almost completely solid” thyroid nodule. The biopsy was negative for cancer but “suspicious” according to them.
