I’m wondering if the labeled Borax available here in Australia as a multi-purpose cleaner, stain remover & deodoriser is safe to ingest? It is made by “Bare Essentials”, developed with “shannon lush” and marketed by Pascoe’s, 13 Casino St, Welshpool, Western Australia 6106 – www.pascoes.com.au.
The label states it contains 990g/kg Borax and comes in a 500g container.
Is there anyone living in Australia, who has posted on this website that knows of, or has used, this particular product internally.
I would be most grateful for any responses.
Thanks, Cher

Hi, You can buy Harper’s powdered borax at IGA; I did until I discovered I could get a 20kg. bag from Blants wellbeing and lifestyle, much cheaper even with freight. They are closed over Christmas New Year.

In Australia, we have packages of borax in the clothes washing aisle. Not a large selection. Don’t get the scented one.

Bare Essentials Borax 500g is available from Coles supermarkets in Australia. You’ll find it in the cleaning aisle. I add a tiny bit to a drink every now and then.

Coles sell “Bare Essentials” Borax. Found the safety data sheet on their website (pascoes.com.Au)it says it is not classified as a dangerous good according to the ADG code. The ingredient is Disodium Tetraborate Decahydrate 100%. Is this a safe one to ingest?

I get my borax from IGA the independant store, it was in a round plastic tub in the laundry aisle32 and is 99% borax, I have used it and it hasn’t killed me. I’m wondering if the other 1% is just fillers, dust, and whatever comes with the borax when they abstract it. Hope this helps. Lily.

I have been reading about Rosecea and specifically Ted’s Borax remedy and have been trowling the website. I have been suffering from this ailment since 1998 and have been using a steroid cream this whole time which doesn’t cure but controls. Ted Thank you so much for you research and information as I have tried many different meaures over the years with only limited success and this is the first real sign of hope.
My question has been asked before by a Melbourne person but could not find the answer – as I live in Australia, what is the brand of BORAX/BORON that I purchase to safely use in your preparations. I am keen to start your remedy and eagerly await your reply.
Thank you again for a wonderful site…I too have recently started to reduce my flouride intact so will read more haevily on this topic. TS
