SwansonTriple Boron Complex

Boron is a trace element found in small amounts in foods and is often used in supplements.

Boron is found in foods such as fruits, vegetables, nuts, and legumes.

These forms differ in the substance to which boron is bound. Boron citrate is bound to citric acid, which is also found in fruits such as citrus. Boron aspartate is bound to aspartic acid, an amino acid found in protein-rich food. Boron glycinate is bound to glycine, a simple amino acid. These variations provide different boron compounds within one formula.

The different forms of boron (citrate, aspartate, and glycinate) each have unique properties. Combining several forms creates a balanced composition with different types of boron compounds.

A trace element is a type of mineral that is only used in very small amounts. Minerals are a broader group: some are present in larger quantities (such as calcium and magnesium), whereas trace elements like boron, zinc, and selenium are present in smaller amounts.
