- Boron is a safe and effective treatment for
some forms of arthritis
- Boron is an essential nutrient for healthy
bones and joints
- Further research into the use of boron for
the treatment or prevention of arthritis is warranted
Dr. Rex Newnham drew these conclusions based on his use of a
boron-based supplement to alleviate his own arthritic pain and
discomfort and the findings from numerous epidemiological studies
and controlled animal and human experiments. These findings included:
- lower boron concentrations in the femur heads,
bones and synovial fluid of people with arthritis
- evidence that the bones of patients using
boron supplements are much harder to cut
- the estimated incidence of arthritis in areas
of the world where boron intakes are usually one milligram or
lower ranges from 20% to 70%, but from 0% to 10% in areas of
the world where daily boron intakes are usually between three
and ten milligrams
- rats with induced arthritis benefit from
boron supplementation
- a double-blind placebo-boron supplementation
trial involving 20 women with osteoarthritis. Half of the women
receiving the supplement improved compared to only a tenth of
the women receiving the placebo
