Boron belongs to the micronutrients and is an essential trace element.
Boron plays an essential role in the immune and hormonal system, and also plays a central role in bone metabolism, which is why it is often used therapeutically for diseases of the musculoskeletal system. There are studies that show that people in countries with boron-poor soils suffer more frequently from arthritis/osteoporosis.
Boron also has pain-relieving properties and assists in vitamin D synthesis.
It is also interesting that boron has the property of reducing the excretion of calcium and magnesium via the kidneys. This is particularly exciting for people who suffer from arthrosis and osteoporosis and who absorb calcium poorly.
Do you take vitamin D supplements and still have trouble absorbing the vitamin? This could be due to a magnesium or boron deficiency. Both are important for vitamin D synthesis.
