Boron in SodaPeak: What the NIH Says About Boron and Testosterone

Quick answer

Boron in SodaPeak is a boron amino acid chelate, listed last in the blend, so it weighs at most 150 mg of the compound per two capsules, and the label gives no boron figure. The NIH fact sheet does not address testosterone in men. It sets an adult upper limit of 20 mg of boron a day and calls the evidence for bones and joints preliminary.

What it is01

What is boron in SodaPeak?

Boron is a trace mineral. The SodaPeak panel lists it last, as "Boron Amino Acid Chelate", which means boron bound to amino acids. The label does not say which amino acid or how much boron the chelate holds.

That last point matters most. A chelate is a compound, and the boron is only part of its weight. A 150 mg ceiling for the chelate, which is what eighth place allows by order (21 CFR 101.36 (eCFR)), could mean a few milligrams of boron or less. The label cannot tell you.

The NIH Office of Dietary Supplements gives the reference figures: the median diet supplies about 0.87 to 1.35 mg of boron a day, and food and supplements together give about 1.0 to 1.5 mg (NIH ODS, Boron).

The big question02

Does boron raise testosterone?

The NIH fact sheet does not address testosterone in men. It reports that boron might affect steroid hormone function and that a low-boron diet might lower estrogen in postmenopausal women (NIH ODS, Boron).

Those are the only hormone remarks in the source, and neither concerns testosterone in men. Searches such as "boron and testosterone", "boron for testosterone" and "boron citrate testosterone" are common, but a search term is not evidence. The reliable source we use is silent on that question, and this site makes no claim about it.

Silence is not a no

The fact sheet not covering testosterone does not prove boron has no effect. It means this source does not support a testosterone claim, and so neither can a label that leans on one.

Limits03

What is the upper limit for boron?

For adults 19 and older the tolerable upper intake level is 20 mg of boron a day. Very large amounts of boric acid or borax, 15,000 to 20,000 mg, can be fatal (NIH ODS, Boron).

A 150 mg compound ceiling is far below a fatal amount. Whether the boron inside sits near the 20 mg daily limit cannot be told, because the label gives no boron figure. Add boron from other supplements, a multivitamin or well water, and the tally is yours to keep.

  1. Check other labels

    Some multivitamins list boron. Add them up against the 20 mg limit.

  2. Ask about the chelate

    Ask the maker how many milligrams of boron a capsule contains.

  3. Keep it simple

    If you cannot find the boron figure, do not assume it is high or low.

How much04

How much boron is in SodaPeak?

The label does not say. The ceiling for the chelate is 150 mg per two capsules, and the boron inside is a fraction of that.

The bars set the 150 mg ceiling beside the NIH limit. They are not comparable, because one is a compound's weight and the other is boron's weight, and the page marks that on the second bar instead of drawing a false match.

  • Tongkat ali

    Room for up to 600 mg
    The most one serving of 2 capsules can hold (label order)600 mg
    100 to 400 mg a day is the traditional range (LiverTox); many products hold 1,000 to 1,600 mg100-400 mg

    The room the label order leaves (600 mg at most) is wider than the studied range, so the label can neither rule the studied amount in nor out. It could hold far less. The label prints no amount. (NIDDK LiverTox, Tongkat Ali)

  • Boron amino acid chelate

    Room for up to 150 mg of chelate
    The most one serving of 2 capsules can hold (label order)150 mg
    20 mg of boron a day is the adult upper limit (NIH ODS); the label gives no boron figure for the chelateno boron figure

    The label gives the chelate's place in the list, not the boron inside it, so the 20 mg a day adult upper limit for boron cannot be set against it. (NIH ODS, Boron)

Copper bars: the ceiling the label order allows for one serving. Green bars: the amount a source names, laid on the same scale. A ceiling is not a measured amount. Taking 1 capsule instead of 2 halves every ceiling, and no study tested SodaPeak.

Before you buy05

Should I take boron for testosterone?

If your question is about testosterone, start with a test and a clinician. Mayo Clinic says testosterone drops about 1% a year after age 30 or 40 and that low energy and low drive have many other causes (Mayo Clinic, Testosterone and aging).

A morning blood draw, read with your symptoms, is the way to find out (MedlinePlus, Testosterone Test). The testosterone and aging page explains what changes and when to test, and the testosterone boosters page covers the whole category.

Keep your care plan

Never change a prescribed medicine because of a supplement. Chest pain, trouble breathing or fainting means 911.

FAQ06

SodaPeak questions people ask

Does boron increase testosterone?

The NIH fact sheet does not address testosterone in men. It says boron might affect steroid hormone function. No claim about testosterone is made for SodaPeak.

What is a boron amino acid chelate?

It is boron bound to amino acids. The SodaPeak label does not say which amino acid or how many milligrams of boron it contains.

How much boron is safe per day?

The NIH upper limit for adults 19 and older is 20 mg of boron a day. Typical diets supply about 0.87 to 1.35 mg.

Is boron citrate the same as boron chelate?

They are different compounds. The SodaPeak label lists an amino acid chelate, not citrate, so research on boron citrate does not automatically apply.

Does boron interact with medicines?

The NIH fact sheet says boron is not known to have clinically relevant medicine interactions at usual intakes. Still tell your pharmacist about every supplement.

Is boron good for men?

The NIH fact sheet reports preliminary evidence for osteoarthritis and bone health and does not address men's testosterone. It makes no men's claim.
