Boswellia comes from the Boswellia serrata tree, which is native to India, North Africa, and the Middle East.
Farmers tap the tree to collect its resin, which is called boswellia.
Boswellia resin has a rich scent and flavor.
It is very popular as an incense, and most people know it by its common name - frankincense.
Natural health practices have used boswellia for centuries to treat various chronic inflammatory disorders. The scientific research on boswellia is less developed, but it is beginning to unveil potential uses for the resin and its extracts.
Boswellia and its active ingredients, such as boswellic acid, appear to have a good anti-inflammatory effect on the body.
