Boron improved brain function

Boron appears to have a positive effect on the brain and central nervous system. Inadequate boron intake can contribute to a lack of energy, ability to stay focused on tasks and mental alertness.
A class of medical students were given either a three milligram supplement of boron or a placebo daily for three months. At the end of the study both the students and their teacher were asked to predict which of them had been taking the boron supplement and which the placebo. The students' predictions were pretty accurate but the teacher got it right in 92% of cases!

The likely explanation for these results was that inadequate boron intake lowered activity in regions of the brain associated with alertness. This has been shown experimentally in humans who were carefully monitored for changes using an electro-o-encephalogram (EEG) following boron supplementation. [1]

Boron - no evidence of toxicity

There was no evidence of toxicity in people given 10mg of boron a day for long periods, concluded this study. In healthy people, boron is rapidly absorbed and then excreted in the urine. Osteotrace contains boron and 15 other nutrients. Another study [1] put eleven postmenopausal women onto a diet delivering 0.3mg of boron a day, then gave them a daily 3.0gm boron supplement. Although the researchers had effectively increased the women's boron intakes tenfold, their blood plasma boron levels only increased by half. This suggested that the body was good at taking what boron it needed then excreting the rest. Contraindication In individuals with kidney problems, boron intake, as with any mineral supplement (particularly potassium) should be carefully monitored as impaired kidney function could reduce excretion,

Boron - is it good for treating arthritis?

Boron protected against osteoporosis A study of twelve post-menopausal women aged between 48 and 72 found that supplementing a low-boron, low-magnesium diet with three milligrams of boron a day for 48 days both (i) increased 17 beta-estradiol* and testosterone levels and (ii) reduced calcium and magnesium levels in the urine. This suggested that the boron supplement had reduced both calcium loss and bone demineralisation, thus reducing bone erosion and protecting against osteoporosis * the most powerful form of natural oestrogen click here for more articles on boron click here to view boron-based Osteo-trace Bone Food supplement Ed. However, another similar study found no evidence that boron supplementation had reduced urine calcium loss. [1] [1] Beattie JH, Peace HS. Br

Boron in the soil

According to Dr Newnham's research, the higher boron in the soil, the lower the rates of arthritis in the population. click here for more information: http://www.greenhealthwatch.com/newsstories/newsboron/low-boron-higher-arthritis.htm TO BUY A BORON SUPPLEMENT GO TO WWW.OSTEOTRACE.COM
