Boswellia which goes by the name-Indian Frankincense, is an herbal extract from the Boswellia serrata tree. A thick resin derived from several species of Boswellia trees, it has been a staple in traditional medicine for centuries. The tree predominantly produces a resin that is harvested and processed to extract valuable compounds replete with fabulous therapeutic and skin healing incentives. Boswellia owes its therapeutic properties to a group of compounds known as ‘boswellic acids’. These active constituents are responsible for many of the benefits associated with the plant.
