My point was that since Iodine, Fluorine, Bromine and Chlorine are all in the same group of the periodic table, they all have similar chemical properties. This is the reason why the other halides replace Iodine in the body when we are Iodine deficient. As Boron works to detoxify the body from fluorides, bromides etc., my question referred to how this is actually done. If there is some specific mechanism that allows for the preferential removal of fluorides, bromides etc., then obviously there is no reason not to mix Boron and Iodine supplementation. If however, the detox mechanism is one that applies to all halides, then a proportion of the Iodine may also be being removed from the body at the same time.

Does anyone know that actual mechanism by which the Boron removes the halides from the body? Does it react with the halides directly? If so, what compounds does it form that are eliminated from the body? Are there any studies that anyone can point to that show how Boron detoxifies halides from the body?
