Description
Boswellia serrata supplements are derived from the resin of the Indian Frankincense tree, which is rich in boswellic acids—natural compounds celebrated for their strong anti-inflammatory effects. These supplements are particularly effective in alleviating joint pain and stiffness caused by osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and other inflammatory disorders. By inhibiting specific enzymes involved in inflammation, boswellia helps enhance mobility and reduce discomfort. In addition to its joint benefits, boswellia has been shown to support respiratory health, easing asthma symptoms, and improving mental well-being by reducing anxiety and depression. Regular supplementation can further aid in maintaining digestive health, enhancing immune response, and promoting overall vitality, making it an all-encompassing solution for inflammation-related issues.
When To Take It
For best absorption, Boswellia serrata is most effective when taken with meals containing fat, helping to maximize its joint-supporting and anti-inflammatory properties.
Synergy and Antagonism
Boswellia serrata enhances anti-inflammatory effects when combined with curcumin and supports joint health when paired with omega-3 fatty acids. Potential interactions with immune system medications require caution, but no significant antagonistic interactions are noted.
It has strong anti-inflammatory properties and is used to treat a wide range of health problems, such as asthma, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and inflammatory bowel disease. Recent research suggests that boswellia extract could potentially help with depression and anxiety.
