This rice chelate of boron provides a convenient high-yield source of boron. Boron is a trace element which influences the metabolism of nutrients involved in the maintenance of strong bones and may play a role in hormone regulation. Known to nutritional professionals as the “calcium helper,” boron plays a vital role in bone health because it assists calcium absorption and utilization in the body. Boron is a trace element which influences calcium and magnesium metabolism. Although no recommended dietary allowance (RDA) has been established for boron, the average daily intake is highly variable, having been estimated at between 0.5 and 7 mg per day. Boron is found in most tissues, but is concentrated in the bones, spleen, and thyroid, indicating boron’s functions in bone metabolism and suggesting a potential role for boron in hormone metabolism. Boron is found in relatively high levels in foods of plant origin, such as black beans, peaches, apricots, spinach, strawberries, apples, cantaloupe, and tomatoes. Many of us do not get enough of these items in our diet, and boron supplements can help. Meat and fish are poor dietary sources of boron.

This product has given me a great freedom of movement. I was thinking I should go into a Seniors' Care facility and after my first 3 weeks on Boron, I was able to really move my shoulders and arms again. Thereafter, I gradually became better in so many ways and to live more comfortably with my severe Osteoarthritis. I recommend this product highly as I have tried many different products that did not produce the result I have maintained with BORON. I have recommended this to many friends who are also happy with the results. I am on my fourth bottle now so for 270 days I am happy to report my progress.
