I think you are using quite a bit too much. This article gives a much smaller amount which may be easier to measure.

Boron is not officially recognized as an essential mineral, however, it is important for the calcium metabolism and, therefore, for healthy bones. In a study of postmenopausal women, boron supplementation reduced calcium loss by 44% and increased estrogen to the same levels as in women receiving estrogen replacement therapy. It can also help with arthritis. A therapeutic dose of 9 mg and a maintenance dose of 3 to 6 mg have been used. Boron is not normally available as a supplement. Instead borax or boric acid is being used, 50 mg of borax contains approximately 6 mg of boron and boric acid 8 mg. To measure this amount, dissolve one level teaspoon of borax in one quart of water and take a teaspoonful twice daily with meals.

Borax and boric acid have very low toxicity, only after taking several grams for several months did toxicity symptoms develop. The French diet is reported to contain about 36 mg of boron daily. I believe that a similar high intake would also be beneficial for those of other nationalities, although the exact amount is not critical. A chemistry teacher with severe arthritis described that he just put his finger into a box of borax twice daily and sucked the finger. He recovered after 3 weeks. I just dip the tip of a knife or spoon into borax and mix that with some food or juice.

Went to Wal-Mart and got a box and am going to try it. I have some empty gelatin caps and I filled one up, which is about 1/4 tsp. and took it. Should I start with it 2x a day? If this helps get rid of the pain in my knees, I will be very glad.

Thanks
