Boron has been found to be safe up to 20 mg per day. It DOES affect estrogen at higher levels. There are many people who take Boron at levels above 150 mg per day, which I am not comfortable with. I have a fatty tumor in my right breast. I was sent to a breast cancer specialist to rule out cancer, and that doctor didn't bat an eye at my consumption of boron.

How I wish this pandemic would finally stop! The numbers are still rising in my area of CA. Since I have NO immune system, my doctor will not let me get my DEXA scan until the numbers go down.

Dr. Jorge Fletches, who trained at Loma Linda in CA, has osteoporosis. He takes a high dose of boron. He reports that after losing a half inch of height, he began taking boron and has not lost any more height in many years, I would need to listen to his talk again to give you details (I'm recovering from shingles and kidney failure - and my brain is not what it was before I got sick). His talk is available on You Tube. lHe spoke about the connection with estrogen.
