Warning: Missing Mineral Causing Arthritis
Find out if one trace mineral can help end your arthritis pain for good.
0:00 Introduction: The number 1 missing trace mineral in arthritis
0:24 What is boron?

3:26 How much boron do you need for arthritis?
Today, we’re going to talk about the number 1 missing trace mineral involved in arthritis. Vitamin D and magnesium are often used for arthritis, but they won’t work without enough boron.
There aren't many studies on boron, but there is some promising data involving boron and arthritis. Boron seems to be the key trace mineral that allows calcium and magnesium to work.
If you’re deficient in boron, you’ll have excess calcium and magnesium in the urine and tend to get more calcification in the soft tissues. You might also have weaker bones.
Here are some of the health benefits of boron:
• Helps keep minerals inside the bone
• Allows vitamin D to be activated
• Helps prevent tooth decay
Boron helps prevent joint inflammation by reducing C-reactive protein. A boron deficiency can also cause receding gums, kidney stones, calcium in the arteries, and calcium in the joints.
The parathyroid gland stores the most boron in the body and produces a hormone that helps control calcium. If you don’t have enough calcium, the parathyroid hormone will increase to extract the calcium from your bones. You need boron to allow this process to work.
If you’re low in boron, you might also be low in testosterone or estrogen. Research suggests that boron can even potentially help reduce the risk of prostate cancer.
To use boron to help relieve arthritis symptoms, try starting with 3 mg of boron three times per day and see if the problem resolves within 1 to 3 months.

Thanks for watching! I hope this explains how boron can be used for arthritis pain relief. I’ll see you in the next video.
My supplements budget is getting close to my food budget. It's a sad world where food no longer provides adequate nutrients.
And the poor can't afford either one
Good point and thank you for mentioning this. 😊
Totally agree. Mines too😂
grow your own if you can
Excel calculated my daily expense of supplements to be around 8 dollars. I console myself by justifying that an average person spends a lot more at a cafe or bar everyday. Anyways, here are my tips for shopping supplements on a tight budget: 1. Look into Half-Life of nutrients. For instance, fat soluble vitamins like A, D, E, K don't need to be taken daily. 2. Some supplements can be taken on/off weekly or monthly and have the same effect or even better effects than taking regularly, trace minerals being a good example. 3. Make a Priority List of the ones that you absolutely NEED to take daily (digestive enzymes for me), once a week, and situational ones. Space out the ones that you can. 3. Subscription discounts, and Keepa price tracker for a certain online shop. 4. Powder > Capsules. Not everything can be but if you can tolerate taking something in a powdered form, it's often more affordable than equivalent capsules. 5. Picking brands. You don't need to buy Pure Encapsulations, Nature's Bounty or Thorne. Nutricost, Naturebell, and Double Wood are just fine. 6. Only splurge on things where brands DO make a substantial difference. For example: many mushroom extracts like Cordycepts, singular patented or proprietary remedies such as Standard Process, and other products where quality sellers are limitd due to supply chain monopoly or geographical reasons, such as Nordic Cod Liver Oil.
I think the amount of supplements I need depends on how many videos I watch..🥴
😂😂😂 so true!
I feel your pain every time I go to the doctor. I’m one step closer to death and then they give me another pill.😅
@@deniserichards4280 please research your pharmaceuticals. Risk vs reward, long term effects, interactions etc. ✌️

But notice, he never says which form of boron to take.
@@carolcole570 one Google result says : Boron is present in dietary supplements in a variety of forms. These forms include boron aspartate, boron citrate, boron gluconate, boron glycinate, and calcium fructoborate. Scientists don't know if one form of boron is better than others
@@jaisyyolandatrujilloaponte8452 La vitamina D y el magnesio se utilizan a menudo para la artritis, pero no funcionan sin suficiente boro. No hay muchos estudios sobre el boro, pero hay algunos datos prometedores sobre el boro y la artritis. El boro parece ser el oligoelemento clave que permite que funcionen el calcio y el magnesio. Si tiene deficiencia de boro, tendrá exceso de calcio y magnesio en la orina y tenderá a tener más calcificación en los tejidos blandos. También es posible que tengas huesos más débiles. Éstos son algunos de los beneficios para la salud del boro: • Ayuda a mantener los minerales dentro del hueso. • Permite activar la vitamina D • Ayuda a prevenir las caries El boro ayuda a prevenir la inflamación de las articulaciones al reducir la proteína C reactiva. Una deficiencia de boro también puede provocar retracción de las encías, cálculos renales, calcio en las arterias y calcio en las articulaciones La glándula paratiroides almacena la mayor cantidad de boro en el cuerpo y produce una hormona que ayuda a controlar el calcio. Si no tienes suficiente calcio, la hormona paratiroidea aumentará para extraer el calcio de tus huesos. Necesita boro para permitir que este proceso funcione. Si tiene niveles bajos de boro, es posible que también tenga niveles bajos de testosterona o estrógeno. Las investigaciones sugieren que el boro puede incluso ayudar a reducir el riesgo de cáncer de próstata. Para usar boro para ayudar a aliviar los síntomas de la artritis, intente comenzar con 3 mg de boro tres veces al día y vea si el problema se resuelve dentro de 1 a 3 meses. ¡Gracias doctor Berg! 🐱👍
Y would u reprint what berg just said?
My mother started taking boron, silica, boswellia and using castor oil packs and her pain in her back went away, when before she could barely walk
I'm so glad to hear that for your mum, mine's in a lot of pain can I pls ask how you make the castor oil pack pls. Many thanks 😊
Can u pls share the recipe to relieve my pain
You have to make sure it's a good castor oil, dark glass bottle, hexane free, cold pressed, unrefined, and get an organic cloth like wool or cotton, u rub one or two tablespoons on the area that's hurting them apply the cloth over it and wear it for at least four hours, she's wears hers to work or at night

I take a 75mg tab daily and my joints are so much more mobile! Along with removing fluoride, I no longer take weekly enbrel shots! I’m so glad someone is getting the word out!! I take Hakala Labs borotab. It is the highest strength I can find.

Recently I started taking 15 mg of boron per day. For the first time in decades, my body is properly absorbing potassium, calcium, magnesium! No more cramps. No more feeling like my electrolytes are dropping. Both of those things can be extremely difficult as anyone who has been through them knows. Taking this bit of extra boron recently came about from your other recent video about this little micromineral. Absolutely impossible to thank you! And yes, certainly a great lessening of arthritis pain as well!
Thank you for sharing. I get leg cramps too. I will add boron.
Seems a bit much 15 mg. I thought 3 mg was the advised dose in the long term.
Sure. Hope Boron will help you. Sharing my videos here on leg cramps: www.youtube.com/@Drberg/search?query=leg%20cramps
Form where ur talking boron any source?
Can you suggest which brand are you using ....thanks!!
I take boron & 99 other things daily. Your car won't run on an empty tank any better than your body will ❤. Thanks for helping us find the puzzle pieces!
A lot of people asking why he didnt list foods...he said over-tilling has stripped the soil of boron. If the soil is stripped then the plants growing in the soil can not get that mineral from the ground. You need to supplement.
Or you can eat organic
Where do supplements get their boron
Then how are the boron’s made??? Magic??
@@sarahgriffin434 organic still comes from the ground. As long as the ground is depleted organic won't do it. How will the ground refill its stocks?
Boron is an element found naturally in leafy green vegetables like kale and spinach. It can also be found in grains, prunes, raisins, noncitrus fruits, and nuts. Coffee as well
Here I was thinking k2 was enough. You may have just saved my life.
Sure. Happy to share this info. Take care.
@@Drberg, Hello! All the above have happened to me. I also have severe B1 thiamin deficit. I take your Natural Vitamin B1+ do I need to supplement with anything else? You have saved my life through the past several years. I'm really suffering. I have osteoporosis of my sacral spine. I'm trying to get out of pain. I lost my gallbladder last year, and started with your Gallbladder formula. It helps so much. Thank you for all you do.
coffee, milk, apples, dried and cooked beans, and potatoe
Mine too Dr. Berg!! 💖
I grew up in Poland and around my city we had spas with boron mad baths. I was too young to use them, but for older people this was the thing to do. Now and then I will fill up my bath with water and add few table spoons of borax and let the skin absorb for a while. I use ordinary store bought laundry borax and it works fine because it's pure borax without additives. Also, I am elderly, way past established retirement date and everything works great. There is another way to prepare borax, old recepie tells to add 1/4 top of borax to 1 L of water and take 1 to 3 table spoons daily at the beginning and then after a while only 1table spoon. Sometimes the pain relief comes within few days. It's a mineral and like everything else is good to keep moderation and test what works. Wish everyone happy joints ad the rest of the body.
Is boron and borax the same thing?
Same been taking 1/4 tsp in coffee 3 years now. Nothing short of miraculous. I can walk again!
And I agree with you 100%
@@sueellenmcgoey6095 OH MAN! I was Literally trying to find SOMEONE to tell me if it's ok to put in HOT liquid (ie, coffee) and if coffee interferes. This is SO helpful! Thank you.
@@melaniejennings8945 Not exactly. Borax is produced by combining boron with sodium, hydrogen and oxygen. It's a caustic chemical compound that, if ingested, may cause nausea, vomiting, stomach aches and bowel problems, and applied topically (to the skin) it may cause irritation, peeling and redness (i.e., "boiled lobster" rash). Ingesting 10 grams of borax (5 grams of borax for children) can be fatal. A small amount of borax in a large tub of water may not cause any excessive skin issues, but it can be akin to handling lye water bare handed and thus not normally recommended. If you wish to supplement your boron intake, the safest action would be to take boron in capsules. Stay safe.
Took boron initially to help costo condritis. It worked! I take it with magnesium daily! Helps with arthritis as well! God told me I had a deficiency. We figured it out!😁
At 72 I appreciate this info, but I was disappointed that you didn't tell us what foods contain boron, but just offered a supplement. I do realize that the food of today is not full of the nutrients that used to be there! Thanks for the video!!
Which foods contain boron? What foods provide boron? Fruits and fruit juices, such as raisins, peaches, and prune and grape juices. Avocados and potatoes. Legumes, such as peanuts, beans, and green peas. Coffee, milk, cider, wine, and beer.
Fruits & fruit juices such as Raisins, peaches, prune & vrape juice. Avocado & potato, peanuts, beans, & green peas. Coffee, milk,cider wine & beer!
Borax is a cheap source of Boron. Its perfectly safe to use. Search out ‘The Borax Conspiracy’
Hell, I just knew I wasn’t drinking nearly enough cider, wine and beer! 😮 Thanks for the tip. @ australianwoman. 😉
Go do your own research
Avocados are a natural source for Boron, folate, vitamin K and copper. Edit: according to diferent sources regarding nutritional data. Edit 2: since Boron is only a trace mineral present in very small amounts naturally, it's usually recommended to take a good quality supplement when there's a deficiency or health condition requiring this trace mineral.
Thank you so much 🎉.
Always helpful to know what to eat for these specific cases, thanks
@@perihan8899 you're most welcome. There are many more foods rich in Boron such as prunes, raisins, grapes, pears, apples, apricots, beans, potatoes among others but they're usually not recommended on Keto.

@@perihan8899 thank you. Take good care 🙏🏻🤍🌞
I noticed a difference taking 10 mg daily. My chronic lower back pain of over 10 yrs was gone overnight !!!
Wow
So what did you take exactly?
@@StrawberrySoul77 brand name " Blue Bonnet" triple Boron. I tried other Boron brands but no results. FYI, I started taking it to boost testosterone. The back relief was icing on the cake.
@@StrawberrySoul77 9-12 mg of triple boron brand name Bluebonnet. 4-5 times per week. After a few months I vary the dose , depending how I feel. ( I'm 60 yrs , 170 lbs , I started taking it to raise my testosterone, the back issue was just a bonus! I read about that side effect but was not expecting it). The dosing is different for ladies.
I've been taking one 3 mg capsule of Boron for years. I just assumed that 3 mg was enough. Today I'm going to take 2 more for a couple of months and see if I feel better. I'm 72 and have pain and inflammation in lots of places. I already take magnesium and Vitamin D. I take tons of supplements. Thank you so much Dr Berg!
try condritin sulfate with food (and d3) with food takes a few weeks to kick in also Extra strength fish oil (Webber’s) both available at Costco
You must take the D with some fat - butter, eggs, whatever. You will not absorb the D without fat.
Excellent. Boron is to the parathyroid as iodine is to the thyroid. The calcium in bones is controlled by the parathyroid and thyroid.
From plant studies in college: Plants sprouted and grown in plastic test tube containers at a certain point withered and died. Those grown in glass containers thrived, when given an identical growth solution. Further study showed those grown in the glass containers were leaching Boron out of the glass. What about the plastic water bottle society we currently live in?
So, the logical solution is to drink more beer out of bottles. I’m on it!!!😉
WOW! Love this... because I was thinking- I have a 1L bottle but it's plastic- although PCB free, I still thought- hmm... probably NOT a good place to mix Boron... so THANK YOU (& thank You Lord for leading me here!)
Wow!! Wow!! Love how you keep researching and adding another piece to the puzzle. Thank you so much Dr Berg
good to know I've been taking boron supplements for a few years now. Feels proud that I'm ahead of the game on something.
Thank you for all your hard work and Truthes❤
My Integrative doctor told me of the importance of boron in 2005. So important. 👍🏻 You are the greatest, Dr. Berg.

Boron was a trace ingredient in a supplement called Bone Mend. ..it made the difference.
I recommend to read article Nothing boring about Boron.
Works like a charm for me. Was not using my dominate right hand for a while because of the pain. Not an issue any more. After a couple of years, I thought, let me go off it for a while to test it. Within 2 weeks I went back on. Definitely for me, it's a Godsend!! The way I take it, is cheap and easy. But I don't dare say how. The many people I tell, think I'm a quack and don't go near it unfortunately. So get it any way you want. Just get it along with the Magnesium Citrate. The 2 work hand in hand.
Are you using Borax laundry supplement?
@@margaretm1606 🤣
Please, tell us how.
Great message today. I'm always looking for ways to assist my body in cleaning itself up. This may be another one of those items that I need. 😊
Boron rich foods: avocado, raisins, peanuts, broccoli, oranges and bananas. Eggs and milk contain both Vitamine D and boron. I am not convinced you need to get suppliments for it as long as you eat a healthy diet including these foods.
The amount of boron in foods isn’t always the same, since soils are depleted and animals are water with fluoridated water. You’re better off supplementing boron at this time, because there’s no guarantee that there’s any boron in what you’re eating and if it’s even bioavailable especially in the case of broccoli and peanuts. They both contain high amounts of antinutrients that block mineral absorption in the gut.
All things considered, going forward this century, knowing things like this is less “well that’s interesting” and more essential knowledge.
Going to give it a go. Going shopping for boron. I have arthritis in my neck and spine and my hand, plus tennis elbow. I'll give you the update in a month. Thank you for very much. I appreciate you. 🌻🌻🌻
Borax is probably gonna be the cheapest way for you to supplement with boron. It's a naturally-occuring, boron-rich salt-like substance mined from lakes & reservoirs. Earth Clinic website has some good info about it.

Sounds like good information. Makes me wonder why Dr. Bergs Trace Minerals only have 1 mg of Boron. If we don't have to worry about too much being toxic why not put a little more in your trace minerals. Please consider adding more in the future, Thanks
Trace minerals are fir general supplementation. A mineral specifically required is a stand alone supplement

Love you, Dr. Berg. You always have such useful information that i do not get anywhere else.
My husband's sudden bout of achy finger joints, two months ago, responded within a few days to a Boron supplement at 3 mg twice daily. He already takes NAG, vitamin K, and Type II Collagen, uses the Sperti Fiji sun several times weekly to maintain vitamin D levels. Many practitioners say that Boron is toxic but I don't exactly know why. People say all kinds of things. I do know that Boron is very high in the Middle East (Lebanon, Israel) and the incidence of osteoarthritis is very very low even though many have low vitamin D due to cultural covering-up with modest clothing.

You are very welcome!
Thank you for the info Doc. Have been trying to get fit and active after a year of recovery of broken ankle, torn shoulder and a gallbladder removal within 4 months. Frustration is putting it mildly. Today, after listening to this video, i ordered a woman's Algae Cal Plus. It has 13 trace minerals, including Boron. I live on a small farm, away from temptation of fast foods, trying to live healthy. We eat local beef, moose , venison,wild salmon, of course, veggies. Was diagnosed with hashimotos years ago, and realize gluten is my enemy. Unfortunately, this past year has tested me , and am really enjoying sourdough bread from our local bakery. Forgive my spelling mistakes, having a silent migraine and can't see properly at present. Don't know what triggers them, but at least they aren't painful anymore. Used to suffer until i vomitted, then the pain would pass. Really hope the introduction of Boron helps. This past while, arthritis is sneaking into my fingers and toes, lots of leg pain( too many months sitting healing.) Actually feel damn fine when outside gardening, moving, not sedentary. Have great faith in your words of wisdom and common sense, but exchange rate and imprtingkeeps me from buying your products. Really hope to find relief in this next try. Am turning 69 next month, but feel 40 inside. Wish me luck! Thanks for all you do for us that don't want to go the pharmaceutical route. Worked in health care for 25 years. Witnessed organ damage, death , due to use of prolonged prescripts. Have a fine day Sir !💗👍
Sourdough still has gluten in it
I wish you all the best as I am a later life woman going through same. I have seen algae cal. It has strontium in it is this ok?
@@lindakaye100 hi there Linda. Wasn't sure if you were responding to my note, not sure how these sites work. Looked up strontium as you mentioned, My bottle doesn't show any trace of it.

There is a lot of info out there on the use of borax to increase boron. From what I have read, a 1/8 to 1/4 tsp to a qt of water drank per day. A gentleman in Australia discovered how it basically cured him of arthritis pain in a period of a few months. There is a fairly long story, but basically big pharma had the government shut down the information and sources of borax. Do the research, basic 20 mule team borax can be found in nearly every grocery store in the US..
It's a lifesaver for me. I do 1/4 tsp in my coffee daily
I use that for my laundry………….
Rex Newnham was the Australian who did the experiments only to be shut down
Ty for sharing . I use the same brand. So cheap! The answer to most of our Health concerns r right under our nose! Shame on big Pharma!
Borax was added to bread by the British and it killed many children in Britain. Cant remember the period, could have been 18th century.
I learned something new today. Thanks Doc😊
Good doctor,this fella,smart, good teacher,I watch u alot, and Dr, O'Neal,Judy,
❤ Thanks alot dr Berg. You always updated information, it's so excellent information ❤
You are welcome, thanks for watching!
I JUST developed arthritis!! In my left thumb. I've been using Boswellian pills and using Frankincense cream on my thumb. And it is painfull! Thank you for the tip, I will get it.
Sure. Hope this will help you. Take care.
@@DrbergDr Berg, what supplement do you recommend to buy?
Boron worked for me. Pain free now
Great!
Thank you, Dr Berg!
Perfect as always
Thanks for watching!
Places where there is boron in the soil and water supply, like Syria and Israel have little to no arthritis. I am in Oz, where arthritis is almost universal amongst the older population. My husband was a soil scientist and when i hit menopause and became crippled with arthritis we researched this. Most of the bodily damage has now been reversed and i am pain free except for small issues in finger joints. Probably need to take a little bit more borax than i am. Don't use the Chinese borax as contamination is a problem with that. Turkish or American borax is best.
Palestine. The water is/was boron rich. Israel diverted much of it for their own use.
Borax? He was saying Boron in the video. Should it be Boron or Borax?
I have advanced arthritis in the back of my skull, neck, shoulders, clavicle and my lower spine in my sacrum to my hips Thank you Dr.berg for your help
You are very welcome. Hope it helps!
Prayers for you as i m also suffering from 7 months
Wow. Good info. Thank you💜
You're welcome! Glad you found it helpful!
Very interesting. Just tested it by ways of applied kinesiology and both my wife and I have a shortage. Not our daughter. Will order it and test our individual dosage. Tnx! 🙏❤️
I found that 6mg 2x a day is the right dosage for me for my arthritis pain.
This happens a lot with KZhead…one way to cure this is to turn your notification for this channel off and then back on..seems to reset it. Hope this helps…
William Albrecth the father of soil balance. boron is the sterring wheel of calcium
Gonna get me some today. Thanks Doc. ❤
Great idea!
Dr. Berg, Thanks for one more eye opening information. Is there any test to find boron deficiency? Also which are the food that has boron?
Thank you! I take your trace mineral supplement twice a day.
Thank you! That actually meant a lot.
His trace minerals only has 1 mg of boron. Do you think that will be enough?
@@southloupriverhomestead4696 I also take 10mg capsule from Pure Therapro Rx. It's a highly bioavailable form of boron. I take Dr. Berg's Trace Mineral formula twice a day. I try to split all of my supplements into 12 hour doses where possible.
Boron works well for arthritis
Can buy?
Thank you!
Heal N Soothe supplement has enzymes that help control fibrin production. Fibrin over production is a major player in arthritis. Heal N Soothe will send first bottle free, just pay shipping. It works!
@@naughtyrocks2425 You should be able to buy it off the internet somewhere to be honest. Amazon will have it to
@@island661 No worries hope it helps
Excellent informative and helpful and very
Happy that you found it useful!
Thank you, very enlightening
Glad I could assist.
So interesting! It's terrible how the soil is being depleted, certainly in the west.
I was hoping for a list of foods high in boron. I know I can research that but these videos are usually an all in one. Thanks for the info tho. My research says coffee, milk, prunes, raisins, dried beans, and potatoes. Most not keto so this would most likely be the reason for no list of natural foods to eat to get boron.
Avocado is high in Boron and keto friendly
He could have said that!
@@sandyjuntunen4088 When you make health videos, please be sure to include that. BTW- info is at your finger tips on google, bing, duck duck go, brave, etc. Maybe he'll do another one to spoonfeed the audience every last thing they're uninterested in obtaining themselves.
Sounds like you already did the research..... thats exactly what I pulled in a 1 minute search while reading the comments. Borax also has boron- main ingredient in fact, but people freak out. Wait, what? Take a natural thing I use for washing and ingest it??? People have been taking borax for decades for their health.
@@sandyjuntunen4088 it sounds like you are being attacked for requesting a complete video from the personality that we all respect. Attacked for offering a criticism that would better a video SMH. Meh...
Thank you once again, you’re awesome. 👍
Really appreciate your kind words, you are welcome.
I love this.. only wish I had learned a long time ago! Thank you Dr. Berg ❤
Recommend a look at the work of Dr Rex Newnham. No longer with us, he was a soil scientist from Australia who demonstrated a geographical correlation between boron depleted soils and incidence of arthritis.Big pharma came for him over his suggestion of using borax, so he developed a range of boron supplements, but said there was essentially no difference.
My old chemistry teacher used to apologise to ' bore on', God Bless you Mrs Barnes.
Definitely going to get this for my parents, who are elderly now, and 3mg 3 times daily seems safe enough. Thank you!
Wonderful. Hope this will help your patients.
Very interesting, thank you.
Most welcome!
Correct, when i first got RA my preventive med Doc had me on supplaments and i noticed they had boron in them!
Hmmm I wonder if steroids have it too
