Description
Organic Boswellia Serrata Capsules* – is an aromatic resin obtained from trees that is known as Indian Frankincense, Olibanum, Dhup, Sallaki and Salai Guggul. The sap, or resin, of the plant contain special compounds that have been found to have strong anti-inflammatory effects.
There are numerous species and varieties of frankincense trees, each producing a slightly different type of resin. Differences in soil and climate create even more diversity of the resin, even within the same species. The trees are also considered unusual for their ability to grow in environments so unforgiving that they sometimes seem to grow directly out of solid rock. The trees start producing resin when they are about 8 to 10 years old. Tapping is done 2 to 3 times a year with the final taps producing the best drops due to their higher aromatic terpene, sesquiterpene and diterpene content.

Modern studies have shown that boswellic acids have a strong anti-inflammatory effects, much like the conventional anti-inflammatory pain medication. However, while the boswellia inhibits pro-inflammatory mediators, the long-term use of it does not lead to stomach conditions.
