HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Triple Boron 3 mg by Source Naturals
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: boron at 3 mg per capsule. Boron is a mineral that plays a role in bone health and may help with certain vaginal infections.
The capsule itself is made from gelatin and includes microcrystalline cellulose and magnesium stearate as inactive ingredients to hold everything together.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
Boron is likely effective for boron deficiency — a real nutritional gap some people can develop. For vaginal yeast infections (vaginal candidiasis) and radiation skin damage (radiation dermatitis), the evidence suggests it's possibly effective, though the science isn't as strong.
When it comes to athletic performance, boron appears to be possibly ineffective, so don't expect it to boost your workout.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
At 3 mg, boron is well tolerated in most people. The tolerable upper limit is 20 mg daily, so this dose sits safely below that threshold.
The most common side effects at low doses are mild — anorexia, skin irritation, indigestion — though these are uncommon. You should avoid boron supplements during pregnancy (high doses may harm the fetus) and while breastfeeding (there's not enough safety data).
If you're pregnant or nursing, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting any boron supplement.
Meds to double-check
No known interactions
No interactions are documented in our data for boron at this dose. That doesn't mean interactions are impossible — just that we haven't found evidence of them — so if you take any regular medications and want extra confidence, use the checker on this page.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with clinical evidence supporting its stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.
If you have a boron deficiency, this supplement may help. It's also worth considering if you're dealing with a stubborn yeast infection, though it works better alongside standard treatment.
Pregnant women and those breastfeeding should skip it. Chat with your pharmacist if you're unsure whether it's right for you.
