Alberta Health Services provides information on boron in drinking water, including sources of boron, health effects of exposure, and guidelines for safe levels of boron in drinking water
Boron can be present in drinking water, and the level of boron in drinking water depends on the geological characteristics of the area. In Alberta, the natural background level of boron in groundwater is typically below the Canadian drinking water guideline of 5 mg/L.
The webpage provides information on the health effects of boron exposure, the regulatory standards for boron in drinking water, and the treatment options for reducing boron levels in drinking water.
