i would say that the boron which is a mineral is probably not very bioavailable in those vegetables and nuts at all that would be my suspicion

The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.

i have some concerns about the bioavailability of that boron and i don't know if that's ever actually been studied one of the things we know clearly is that minerals like zinc which are divalent cations are not very bioavailable in any of those foods... those molecules are meant to chelate those divalent cations and will cause problems with their absorption yet again i'm not a fan of trying to get your minerals from beans or nuts or grains or seeds for that reason so i have doubts about the bioavailability of boron in those foods though i don't know that it's ever been studied directly
