Hi Sunnyflower....I am still on the fence about boron supplements...I take dietary amounts that should fill my bone needs...but boron is something which I am researching plus, collagen and silicon...because quality of bone is just as important as bone density, especially it seems in the femoral bone....no, no medical degree; lots of doctors in the family...ha, most of them are the "c" level students in the family; My training has been in research and teaching.

Thanks Kathleen. Please let me know what you find. I think the 3mg Boron, which is what most bone supps have, can't harm since studies show that up to 20mg is ok

I eat no leafy greens but take a super green food supp..

The Canadian bone supp AOR, is animal based calcium. I'm under the understanding that plant based is easier to digest.

I may switch my Dannon Lite and Fit yogurt to one that has fat in it to assist vit D to do its work assisting calcium absorption. My nutritionist told me that I need 5g of fat at the meal I take my bone supps. I have very little fat in my diet but do eat a lot of salmon (fresh Alaskan King) for dinner.

Thanks so much and I hope you have a blessed day, Sunnyflower. 😊
