The importance of Boron

Paul explains what Boron is, and the importance of incorporating foods containing Boron into your diet. He talks about how Boron contributes to the ability to respond to Vitamin D, shares studies on Boron, and shares his own plan to incorporate more Boron into his diet.

[@Darnabymom]

60 yr old woman here. Since your video on your Aug 2022 labs, I started taking 9 mg of boron. First day I felt so much better and every day since. There are many reasons for me to take it. Osteopenia, arthritis, hormone imbalances, magnesium absorption, etc. THANK YOU, Paul. Tell your mom even if she doesn’t notice right away, it will still help her in the long run. We all want strong bones and body for as long as possible!!! Tip for taking it: I read reviews and it is best to take it earlier in the day so it won’t make it harder to go to sleep.

@@undefinednull5749 I think it has to do with that milk having A2 protein (and it's something to do with casein also), rather than A1 protein. Unfortunately, A1 protein (beta casein) is much more common in typical milk, from cows. Some people do goat milk dairy, to get A2 protein rather than A1 protein. Others seek out the milk products (such as yogurt) from particular breeds or types of cows, in order to get A2 and avoid A1.

I purchase canned oysters which are absolutely rich in zinc and highly bioavailable, it’s much better than taking zinc in supplement form. As for the copper I balance it consuming an ounce of beef liver alongside the oysters canned in water. Each can would last you give or take about 2-3 days, also be sure to consume the liver with a fatty meal such as eggs and red meat that has fat present in it. Doing all these while supplementing with vitamin d3 made with olive oil capsules will super charge you.

Boron seems to be a very complex mineral. The ideal situation is a permanent effect of SHBG levels dropping while increasing free testosterone. However, that case study that reported increase in SHBG levels is worrisome because it means it's not going to have the same effect on everyone. In addition, the effect is has on the increase of DHT is probably the biggest red flag to watch out for because constant increase in DHT can lead to prostatic hyperplasia. So now the question becomes, what is the perfect dosage? The only way to find out is to experiment with that dose range of 3-10mg/day. But one would have to constantly be getting their blood work done and have to be on pins and needles to see the results because at the end of the day that prostatic hyperplasia may lead to more problems down the road in your 60s, 70s or even 80s.

@@Darnabymom Okay I my bad I should have elaborated further, oxalates come in 2 forms soluble and insoluble with the former being the issue. So if you consume calcium rich foods at the same time as the oxilate rich foods the oxalates bind the calcium and won't pass through the enterocytes of the gut... But! If you're super anxious on oxalates go with pinapple, now there's nothing out there saying it's high in boron but! There are studies showing it consumes huge amounts from the soil.

Why wouldn’t you just supplement with it ? The body gets rid of excess boron when magnesium levels ate normal.

I've been following P.Saladino's recommendations Carnivore/Fruit diet. Eating beef liver regularly, approx 50 grams per day (not everyday of the week) but this seems to mean I am getting an excess of copper ? Is this dangerous ?

How can we reach Paul's attention? I'm very curious about homogenized milk and large quantities of milk in general. Also about in what ways beef is worse when it diverges from grass fed.

[@fredrickeriksson1965]

If you knew how so-called homogenised milk is processed, you'd never get near the thing. If you have access to A2 or any other kind of raw milk then drink that if you can digest it.

100% Grass fed beef has less Omega 6, more omega 3. Typically also less likely that antibiotics are used on grass (cows on grain get inflammation, infections, then receive antibiotics).

So how much boron is in a pineapple? Seriously folks I can find loads of agricultural research saying they consume loads from the soil, but nothing on them having any... Very weird.

[@AbhishekKumar7]

Why raisins and not just grapes 🍇? 🤔

[@4bidden1]

Bc you would have to eat much more grapes (water weight) than raisins

[@markaguilera493]

I prefer that option too but you'd have to eat at least a pound of grapes a day. Maybe part of the efficiency of the grape diet could be attributed to high boron consumption.

Is it a bad idea to take boron if you're hypothyroid and taking T3? I've read it's good for hyperthyroidism, but it's meant to increase estrogen, so I'm thinking it would maybe exacerbate hypothyroidism?

It can actually help raise t3. Good for us hypothyroid people.

You are probably taking too much potassium. This is Happening to me too. I didn't know that boron is a form of potassium, specially in borox. I took a 1/4 tsp and put me in bad shape. You might want to watch your potassium intake. Celtic Salt is helping me. I got so dehydrated with borox. Good luck.
