Boswellia Serrata (or Indian Frankincense) is a kind of incense. The trunk of the tree produces this resinous substance called Shallaki in the Sanskrit language. This resin is cleaned, dried, and the powdered substance is placed in the capsules.
It has been used since ancient times due to its versatile medicinal properties in Ayurvedic medicine. The Boswellia plant contains a lot of resins, which are very good for the treatment of cracked cartilage, helping to rebuild cartilage and relieving cartilage wear.
Its active ingredient is boswellic acid as an active component, which greatly promotes the incorporation of calcium into the body.
Boswellic acid reduces inflammation and pain by inhibiting the function of the enzymes that cause inflammation in the joints. It has such a rare anti-inflammatory effect as a non-steroidal agent. Unlike products that reduce inflammation used in Western medicine, it does not irritate the gastric mucosa.
(Interestingly, dietary supplements for muscle building also contain this substance, such as the product of Biotech Arthro Guard).
What does it consist of?
Powdered version of the resin-like substance of the Boswellia Serrata plant (Incense Tree).

O.V. (store manager) –
I started taking Boswellia about 3 weeks ago, as i suffer from joint disease and have a lot of pain in my hands. I’ve tried a lot of things, but it mostly only worked for a short while. After 2 weeks of taking Boswellia, I could already feel an improvement: —my grip feels much stronger — I can make more subtle movements (e.g. stitching) — the strong pain subsided. I trust that if I continue to use it, I can “say goodbye” to this insidious disease. Thank you for this super product!
