The Science of Boswellia

The golden yellow resin from the bark of Boswellia (Boswellia serrata) has long been used in Ayurvedic practice to support healthy joints and respiratory function.(Schauss et al., 1999) Active plant compounds in Boswellia have been identified as boswellic acids.(Safayhi et al., 1995) Clinical evidence of this activity is found in placebo-controlled clinical studies. Boswellia supported joint function, either when taken alone (Chopra et al., 2000) or combined with other Ayurvedic herbs (Ashwagandha, Turmeric) and minerals.(Kulkarni et al., 1991), Boswellia has also been found to support healthy respiratory function.(Gupta et al., 1998)

Dosha Guide

In Ayurveda there are seven basic body constitutions resulting from the predominance of one or more energetic influences or Doshas. The Doshas, Vata, Pitta and Kapha, influence physical, mental and spiritual health. Everyone is considered to be a unique combination of these three body influences. Your natural Doshic state of balance is called Prakruti. Boswellia is used for healthy joints and can also help to balance certain Doshas.

Guide to Being Well - Healthy Joint Function

• Regular, moderate exercise can help to improve joint function. Try biking, walking, or swimming.
• Avoid iron supplements.  Excess iron may contribute to pain and swelling.
• Include foods containing sulfur in your diet such as garlic, onions and eggs, as sulfur strengthens bones and connective tissues.
• Consume more fresh green vegetables, fruits and fish to increase calcium and vitamins C & K.
• Apply a cold pack to hot and inflamed joints.
• Reduce excess weight, which intensifies joint problems.
• Take hot baths to relieve stress.
• Enjoy the outdoors; sunshine is linked to vitamin D, which is essential for building bones.
