Boron complexes
Trace mineral boron in various complexed forms. Affects calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus metabolism. Studied for bone health, testosterone modulation, and arthritis. Tolerable upper intake level established (20mg/day for adults).
How it works (mechanism of action)
Acts on cellular signalling pathways relevant to the documented clinical indications. Contains bioactive compounds with enzyme-modulating, receptor-binding, or antioxidant properties studied in peer-reviewed literature.
Upper tolerable limit: 20mg/day for adults (EU EFSA, US NAM). Exceeding UL: GI irritation, nausea, headache. Male fertility: high boron intake associated with reproductive toxicity in animal studies. Oestrogen/testosterone modulation: caution in hormone-sensitive conditions. Drug interactions: magnesium supplements (affects absorption).
