Frees up bound testosterone.
By lowering SHBG, Boron ensures that the testosterone you produce is actually available to bind to receptors in the brain and genitals, enhancing the libido-boosting effects of your natural hormones.
Studies show that 10mg of Boron daily can reduce SHBG significantly within one week. It also reduces the urinary excretion of calcium and magnesium, preserving the minerals needed for muscle relaxation and nerve transmission.
Increases Free Testosterone by lowering SHBG.
Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) is a protein that binds to testosterone, rendering it inactive. Boron supplementation (6-10mg) has been shown to reduce SHBG levels, "unlocking" more free testosterone for the body to use.
This makes it one of the most effective natural interventions for men with high total testosterone but low free testosterone symptoms.
