Thanks for that. FWIW we get 150ug of Boron in our daily multivitamin
but the arthritis isn't the only reason why I'm quite happy she's not
on a motorbike nowdays. ;-(


If that's micrograms that's nowhere near enough to be useful.

That's what we guarantee to get every day as a minimum, plus what we
get from our foods etc?

50mg a day split into 2 doses is more suited to treating arthritis.

And is this supposed to treat rather than halt?

If you compare soil boron levels versus incidencee of arthritis in various
countries, the 2 clearly correlate. One can conclude from that that
boron deficiency is likely a cause of arthritis.

You can conclude no such thing. At the very most it is an observation
that might suggest a trial of supplementation to find out whether it is
completely unconnected or not.



And sure enough it often clears it up completely. It's not the only
factor, but it's a big one. Other significant causes include a high carb
diet & not eating the right fats.


However I'm not a doc and not advising anything.

Understood.


I'd have a bike if they weren't donorcycles.

The vast majority aren't and may would rather go that way than in a
tin box of boredom and isolation. ;-)


I get it. Just not where my fun comes from

Has it ever, OOI?

from motorcycles? no
