Boron: Boron is an element that is found around the world. It has elements that border between metals and non-metals. Boron can enter the body through the skin, lungs, or mouth. It has been suggested for many medical conditions, but more research is needed before recommendations can be made. Preliminary evidence suggests that boron does not improve muscle mass by increasing testosterone levels. Although it is suggested that boron may raise testosterone levels, in early human research, total lean body mass has not been affected by boron supplementation in bodybuilders.Avoid if allergic or sensitive to boron, boric acid, borax, citrate, aspartate, or glycinate. Avoid with a history of diabetes, seizure disorder, kidney disease, liver disease, depression, anxiety, high blood pressure, skin rash, anemia, asthma, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Avoid with hormone-sensitive conditions, such as breast cancer or prostate cancer. Avoid if pregnant or breastfeeding. Read more
