Speaking of sleep...Paramin

Since everyone here is copper toxic are any of you having problems with the Boron in the Paramin supplement, or is it just that I am extra sensitive to Boron?

I find that since taking it, my insomnia is worse, and I have heart palpitations all day & night, along with horrendous hot flashes & sweats. At first I didn't relate it to the Boron, so I actually increased my Boron (based on advice) in order to relieve those things, only to find that it made it even worse !

I took up to reading more about it today, and it seems that Boron actually increases copper and thus estriadol. It seems to then increase estrogen dominance/copper toxicity. Many sources say that Boron seems to work well ONLY for those who are post-menopausal and have low estrogen.


I have since taken a natural product with DIM, and it's helping alot just from the very first day. I have more energy and feel happier. I also slept without waking up for the 1st time in a long time..(standard: I also take 2,000mg Inositol before bedtime).

I am wondering if others(male&female)here would benefit from it for their sleep, as well..

Additional note: Please do your own research if you consider taking DIM, to see if it'd be right for you.
I've read that the majority of people get excellent results, however ,there are always some or few that report negatively. DIM contains broccoli extract, so it 'could' affect the thyroid in the long run. I would imagine that if you are taking ThyroidComplex you would not have a problem with this..
