INTRODUCTION
Boron citrate, usually called “boron”, is a mineral present in food and the environment. Studies show that boron potentially affects the way your body handles minerals such as phosphorus and magnesium. It is popularly used by those looking to build strong bones, build muscles, and improve muscle coordination.
Manufacturing
Boron Citrate is manufactured using Boric Acid and Citric Acid.
