How does Passion 4 Health use it?
Boron is a trace mineral found primarily in plant foods, including fruits, tubers, legumes, nuts, and dried fruits. It is associated with the metabolism and utilization of calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, and vitamin D, nutrients that each play a role in normal bone health and mineral metabolism. Boron is also studied for its relationship to hormone processes and normal levels of steroid hormones, including estrogen and testosterone.
Passion 4 Health provides Boron as boron glycinate chelate, a form in which boron is bound to the amino acid glycine. This form is included in the Daily Liquid Multivitamin + Minerals and Hair, Skin & Nails Daily Liquid Multivitamin as part of each formula’s trace-mineral profile. Boron is included to support normal bone health, healthy calcium and magnesium metabolism, and everyday wellness.
