Boron is very harmful to the human body. According to professional doctors, borax is highly toxic. Just 2 to 3 grams can cause a baby to be in danger or even die directly. Unexpectedly, this kind of toxin is in the crystal mud that children often play with. I believe many parents will feel scared when they see this news.

Crystal clay looks shiny on the surface and has a certain degree of plasticity. Children like to play with it very much, but unexpectedly, this simple toy has become a killer for children. A reporter purchased eight different brands of crystal mud from the market, and then sent the crystal mud to the laboratory for testing. The final result found that the boron element in all eight crystal muds seriously exceeded the standard. In fact, the reason why crystal mud can look shiny and beautiful, and is also elastic and plastic, is because it contains borax, and this substance also plays a vital role in the synthesis of crystal mud. This means that without this borax, there would be no crystal mud that we can see. So the answer can be imagined. The crystal mud we can see should contain this kind of borax.

Borax is highly toxic. If we accidentally eat borax, this substance will be absorbed by the intestines. Even a small amount will take a long time to be slowly excreted. If a small amount adds up to a large amount, it will eventually lead to poisoning. Borax will cause great harm to many organs in the human body. It will initially cause loss of appetite, inhibit the absorption of various nutrients, and then accelerate the decomposition of fat. The weight may be lost rapidly, and the human body may experience vomiting and dizziness. Diarrhea and other symptoms. In severe cases, there will be some erythema shock, human coma, etc. 1 to 3 grams can poison an adult, and 15 to 20 grams is the lethal dose for an adult. If a child accidentally eats 5 grams of borax, it can cause death immediately. The lethal dose for an infant is 2 to 3 grams.

So although this crystal mud is very beautiful, it contains dangerous toxins and it is not recommended for parents to buy it for their children. Although the borax in crystal mud is not fatal, it is easy for children to take it by mistake. Over time, children will develop various problems and even suffer from mild poisoning. Every child is a parent’s treasure. For the sake of the child’s safety, they should stay away from toys that contain toxins. In addition, parents should also pay attention when buying toys for their children. Try to choose some safe and reliable toys, preferably produced by regular manufacturers, so as to ensure the health of your child.
