TIPS FROM THE MASTERS …
Inflammatory stricture in the rectum: BORAX.
Dr. Tyler, M.D.
It is the observation of Dr. Gowers that BORAX is useful in Psoriasis.
Dr. Hughes, L.R.C.P.
BORAX acts on the majority of cases of Airsickness, because it is the sudden dip, which affects most people, and particularly their terror of falling. I have had a number of cases in which I have completely stopped air- sickness by 3 or 4 doses of BORAX before they have started flying.
Dr. D. M. Borland, M.D.
This remedy is magical for mouth ulcers (aphthous ulcers). The results are amazing. When it works, it works faster than Metronidazole, or Vitamins or even steroid, which are used to combat this disease in allopathic medicine. It takes away the rawness in the mouth and the patient is comfortable in a few doses. I have also found it useful in children who suddenly cry out in the sleep or while urinating.
