This, and many other conditions listed in the above abstract, are covered within, along with their supporting studies.
It’s worth a read, folks.
I tried to read it, but the article was too boron.

Boron is awesome.
Love boraxo.
I’ve been to the museum in Boron.
Yeah, I read two weeks ago about the benefits of boron as a way to treat BPH and picked up a bottle. I’m impressed by the more general benefits of boron. curious that something this beneficial has so little literature.
We used boron as a P dopant in chip making. Boy, did I get a bang when I accidently dropped a vial of it into a sink of water. Kaboom!
Then he meets the cute blonde, and she asks what he does, and he gets flustered and says, "I collect manure."
I tried it. No difference. Stopped.
I like Boron ... and Kramer Junction
Paying less for your veggies is actually a simple matter of “you got what you paid for”, nutrient-wise.
The dangers of supplementation are compounded by USP chemical analogues. Our food has become less nutritional for reasons which should be obvious, requiring supplementation of many nutrients or substitution with nutrient-rich foods.
Boron is what they named Sohio gas stations outside of Ohio...
I started using the borax protocol in 2012. Within three weeks I started experiencing beneficial bone remodeling of mild deformations from childhood: ulna, skull.
Even as experienced and successful as I had been with natural remedies, I was amazed.
Something else that may help with OA is Lithothamnium calcareum (Red Maerl algae), which contains trace monerals including boron.
Thanks for posting this. I read a lot of the article, and will return later to finish it. I’ve been supplementing boron for a while, and I just might increase trhe quantity.
Ping, sir. Please read the original paper concerning osteo and rheumatoid arthritis. This doesn’t help with muscle concerns, though.
Anti-inflammatory Effects in Osteoarthritis
…In vitro studies have shown anti-inflammatory effects of calcium fructoborate—a naturally occurring, plant-based, boron-carbohydrate complex—on cellular cultures, and an open-label pilot study (n = 20) found that calcium fructoborate had highly positive effects on OA symptoms. In the 8-week pilot study, OA patients were divided into 2 groups, those with mild and medium forms of OA and those with severe cases. Two assessment measures were used, the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) and the Newnham criteria. Mild-to-medium cases received 6 mg/d of supplemental boron; severe cases received 12 mg/d. In subjects with mild and medium OA, average pain reduction was 62.5% in 4 weeks and 70.8% in 8 weeks. In the first 4 weeks, 80% of mild-to-medium OA subjects reduced or eliminated their analgesic (ibuprofen) use. By 8 weeks, 67% had stopped using the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) medication. Joint rigidity disappeared in one-half of the mild and medium OA patients in the first 4 weeks and decreased in the remaining one-half by 87.5% on average. By week 8, all subjects with mild- and medium-level OA were rigidity free. Mobility and flexibility were significantly improved in 71.4% of subjects at 4 weeks and in 77.8% at 8 weeks.
In the severe OA group, average pain reduction was 47.9% at 4 weeks and 64.5% at 8 weeks. In the first 4 weeks, 40% of subjects with severe OA reduced or eliminated their analgesic (ibuprofen) use. By week 8, 75% had quit using their NSAID medication (ibuprofen). Joint rigidity disappeared in one-half of the severe OA patients in the first 4 weeks. In the remaining one-half, joint rigidity decreased significantly, an average rigidity reduction of 50%. Mobility and flexibility were significantly improved in 50% of severe OA subjects at 4 weeks and in 62.5% at 8 weeks.
Thanks for this.. I find this info to be absolutely fascinating.. I’m going to be on this like “White on rice”.. :)
