Background
Boswellia serrata is a tree that produces a fragrant gum resin, prized for centuries by practitioners of Ayurveda. The compounds of most interest in the resin are known as boswellic acids, and a standardised extract is produced so that each softgel provides a dependable level of them. MCT (medium chain triglyceride) oil is a light, neutral-tasting oil that acts as the carrier inside the softgel. This single-herb product suits people who want boswellia on its own rather than in a blend.
Available in a 90 softgels pack.
