Boron-enriched yeast

Boron yeast builds boron into yeast protein as a mixture. People sensitive to yeast should avoid it. Dose by milligrams or micrograms of the element, not as a protein powder.

Mineral-metabolism research

Boron yeast is a source of boron. Human evidence on boron with calcium-magnesium metabolism is still early. This form supplies trace boron; it is not a bone-disease drug.
