Description
Solgar Boron 3mg 100 Capsules is a food supplement providing 3mg of boron, a trace mineral, in each vegetable capsule. Boron is supplied as boric acid, and the recommended dose is one capsule a day. The capsule shell is made from a vegetable material rather than gelatine, making this supplement suitable for vegans, vegetarians and those following a kosher diet.
Key Features
- 3mg boron per capsule: Each capsule provides a standardised 3mg dose of boron, so there's no need to measure or estimate an amount.
- Vegetable capsule: The shell is made from hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose rather than gelatine, suitable for vegans, vegetarians and those following a kosher diet.
- Minimal ingredient list: Contains boron together with only the bulking and anti-caking agents needed to form the capsule.
- Recyclable amber glass bottle: The capsules are supplied in an amber glass bottle, which helps protect them from light.
Why does the ingredients list say "boron (as boric acid)"?
Boric acid is the specific compound used to supply boron in this supplement. It's listed as "boron (as boric acid)" because this is the form that provides the 3mg of boron in each capsule, not a separate added ingredient.
Is 3mg of boron a safe daily amount?
Yes. The UK Expert Group on Vitamins and Minerals has set a safe upper level of 6mg of boron a day from supplements for adults. Each capsule of Solgar Boron 3mg provides half of this amount when taken at the recommended dose of one capsule daily.
How long will one pack last?
A pack of 100 capsules provides around 100 days' supply at the recommended dose of one capsule daily, which is just over three months.
