What Boron is
Boron is an ultra-trace element found in fruits, nuts, and legumes. It is not classically 'essential' but has measurable effects on mineral and hormone metabolism at supplemental doses.
The honest bottom line
A minor, low-cost lever for free testosterone and vitamin D metabolism. Real but small — a supporting act, not a star.
