Frequently asked questions

What does boron do for bones?
Boron is a biologically active trace mineral that influences how the body handles calcium, magnesium and phosphorus, and it is known to support bone strength and structure.* It works alongside the major bone minerals rather than replacing them, which is why it is often added to a calcium-and-magnesium routine.*

Why the Bororganic Glycine form?
NOW® uses Albion™ Bororganic Glycine, an organic chelated form in which boron is bound to the amino acid glycine. Chelated minerals are generally chosen for good absorption and tolerability, and this form delivers a precise, well-absorbed 3 mg dose.*

How do I take it?
Take one capsule daily with a meal, or as directed by your healthcare provider. Because it is a small, once-daily capsule, it slots easily alongside other bone-support supplements such as calcium, magnesium and vitamin D.*

Cautions & interactions

Boron is generally well tolerated at this supplemental level. Talk to your doctor before use if you are pregnant, nursing, taking medication or managing a medical condition, and — because boron can interact with hormone metabolism — if you have a hormone-sensitive condition or take hormone therapy. Keep boron within recommended amounts rather than combining several high-dose boron products, and keep out of reach of children.
