Boron

Boron is a trace mineral essential for many vital functions in the body. It supports reproductive health, brain function, bone formation, calcium and magnesium metabolism, and the activity of steroid hormones like Vitamin D. Boron plays a key role in improving insulin function, energy metabolism, immune response, and heart health. It also helps reduce joint rigidity, supports wound healing, and eases symptoms of osteoarthritis, osteopenia, and osteoporosis. Traditionally used in Western health practices, boron has been shown to enhance cognitive performance, short-term memory in older adults, and brain electrical activity. It increases antioxidant enzyme levels such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, and glutathione peroxidase, offering protection against oxidative stress and heavy metal toxicity. Boron may also reduce inflammation markers like hs-CRP and TNF-μ, influence the activity of important biomolecules like SAM-e and NAD⁺, and has shown potential in the prevention and supportive treatment of certain cancers, including prostate, cervical, and lung cancer, as well as lymphomas. Where boron deficiency is noted 10mg may be used short term to boost boron levels and may also boost testosterone levels, 3mg for maintenance.
