What is this? This is a toy slime that may have too much boron in it. Boron is a chemical that can be harmful if children eat it or touch it too much.
What's happening? The slime has more boron than it should. This could hurt children’s health, especially their ability to have children when they grow up.
Does this affect me? If you have children who play with slime, they might be at risk. This is especially true in Poland.
What should I do? Stop using the slime right away. Ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before letting children play with any slime.
