The Health Benefits of Boric Acid

Prevent Oxidative Stress

Oxidative stress is a condition in which the body cannot detoxify the harmful effects of free radicals. In other words, too many free radicals are produced that the body cannot eliminate them quickly enough. This would affect your overall health over time and lead to many medical issues like chronic fatigue syndrome, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and blood or heart vessel disorders. Some studies have shown that boric acid and boron can reduce induced oxidative stress as well as increase the antioxidant defense mechanism and regenerated damaged tissue in the brain, kidneys, and liver. More importantly, the chemical can attach to a donated electron to inhibit free radicals. [4]
