🧬 Why Boron Matters for You:
Boosts free testosterone by reducing SHBG (sex hormone-binding globulin)
Lowers estradiol in men with high-fat mass (especially chest/waist)
Supports magnesium and calcium balance
Reduces inflammation in joints, muscles, and brain

⚠️ For Carnivore/Ketogenic Focused Eating:
Since many boron sources are fruit- or carb-based, here’s how to still get boron without compromising low-carb goals:
✅ Low-Carb Boron-Friendly Options:
Avocados (half daily = ~1 mg)
Almonds / walnuts (small handful if tolerated)
Beet greens (sautéed in butter)
Bone broth (with connective tissue) — indirect boron from cartilage
Beef liver — low levels, but cofactors like copper and zinc enhance boron activity
🧪 Supplement Option:
If you're ultra low-carb and want therapeutic effect:
Boron chelate or citrate supplement (3–10 mg daily)
Start with 3–6 mg/day
Best taken with magnesium or zinc for synergy
Many studies on testosterone boosting used 6 mg/day for men over 40–50 and saw results in 7–10 days (increased free T, reduced estrogen and CRP).
⚔️ Summary — Boron for the Rogue Beast Warrior
Eat half an avocado or a few nuts daily if you're open to trace carbs
Or supplement with 3–6 mg/day boron citrate
Stack with magnesium + vitamin D + beef liver
Expect improved testosterone profile, reduced inflammation, and tighter midline/chest
