A report from 1973 outlined the cases of two infants who developed chronic borate intoxication

eating borax can turn your vomit and stool a blue-green color

Interesting…

Some years ago, I saw a documentary about “exorcisms”, where the performing priest, in breach of established doctrine, decided to talk about some cases with the reporters. One of the proofs he cited for “demonic possession”, was the victim spraying green and blue foam from their mouth.

Makes one think, did their parents try to cure them with borax first?

BTW, al Borate containing cleaning agents are banned in the EU since 2010, so the closest thing one can find right now is some “like Borax” ones.
