Davyo'splace India Frankincense Powder 100g

Frankincense is a resin with a history in traditional medicine. It’s sometimes used to help manage arthritis, asthma, and other health conditions.

Frankincense, also known as olibanum, is made from the resin of the Boswellia tree. This tree typically grows in the dry, mountainous regions of India, Africa, and the Middle East.

Frankincense has a woody, spicy smell and can be inhaled, absorbed through the skin, or taken as a supplement.

Frankincense may help reduce the symptoms of arthritis. Frankincense extract may help reduce symptoms of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

Frankincense may help improve gut function,  reduce abdominal pain, bloating, and even associated depression and anxiety in people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

Frankincense may help improve the symptoms of asthma

Traditional medicine has used frankincense to treat bronchitis and asthma for centuries.

Its compounds may prevent the production of leukotrienes, which cause the bronchial muscles to constrict in asthma.

Frankincense may also affect Th2 cytokines, which can cause inflammation and mucus overproduction in people with asthma.

Frankincense may help improve oral hygiene and prevent gum disease. The boswellic acids it provides appear to have strong antibacterial properties, which may help prevent and treat oral infections.
