Great info Aliss!

I will see where I can find some chelated boron and see what
happens...

Thanks,

of chelated boron as a supplement. I do think boron is helpful for
the joint pain and bone health. Magnesium is essential! I think boron
is one of several trace minerals like selenium and lithium that
offsets fluoride toxicity. (I take those too.) I base this on the
research from Deaf Smith County in Texas which had high natural
fluoride levels in the water and an almost perfect balance of other
minerals. The local farmers had excellent health and good teeth as
long as they avoided flour and sugar. I no longer have fibro or
chronic fatigue but symptoms come back if I drink my tap water or
shower in it. I take short baths with plenty of baking soda or epsom
salts that blocks the fluoride from entering the skin. I have a very
simple old fashioned diet based on the Weston A. Price Foundation
research and my ancestry which is Dutch. I think I have the gene for
gluten intolerance and that is one reason why I was so poisoned -
gluten intolerance damages the bowel, fluoride damages the bowel, and
that greatly reduces calcium and iodine uptake from foods.

like in green and rooibos teas, despite the small dose of fluoride. I
have clients with thyroid disease who don't get symptoms from their
expensive organic green or white tea as long as it is made with
spring or distilled water. So I think there may be brands of green
tea out there (like the Matcha Japanese green tea powder) that are
beneficial for those who are not hypersensitive.
