Boswellia Serrata 250 mg
The Vitamin Shoppe
Overview
This Boswellia Serrata supplement provides an extract of Boswellia resin, which has demonstrated effectiveness in reducing pain and improving physical function in individuals with osteoarthritis. Its primary mechanism involves inhibiting 5-LOX, an enzyme crucial in the inflammatory process. While the dosage aligns with the lower end of clinically studied ranges, the extract's standardization and potential benefits for inflammatory conditions make it a potentially useful supplement.
