title: Calcium fructoborate: plant-based dietary boron for human nutrition.
abstract: The main objective of this paper is to evaluate the scientific evidence on the form of organic boron, calcium fructoborate (CF), including health dates, dietary needs, pharmacology, experts opinion, research papers, clinical evidence, and dosing. CF is a natural product with effects in oxidative metabolism and cell apoptosis. We review the biological and biochemical action of chemical natural-identical entity of CF. This mini review provides support for future clinical research.
