Guest guest Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 >The borax works because it is mostly magnesium and magnesium displaces flouride.< If that's the case, then one could take a magnesium chloride soak in any municipal water without any other worry. This would be really good news. Is there anything out there to back this up? Three of my children could take take TMT soaks at their homes with no trouble if this is for real.
