Experts Warn Of Dangerous New TikTok Trend: Adding Borax To Water

Medical experts across the nation are warning about a dangerous new TikTok trend urging people to put Borax in their water.

Borax is a chemical people use in their laundry to clean clothes.

Videos on TikTok are telling people adding the chemical to their water will help with inflammation.

Doctors are saying people should never ingest Borax in any way.

"If you were to ingest borax, it's very likely you would develop symptoms of nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. It can even lead to acute renal failure or kidney failure. In some cases, it even lead to death," said Devon Morris with Utica Park Clinic.
