Green Herb

Boswellia serrata extract is derived from the resin of the Boswellia tree, commonly found in northeastern Africa—particularly Somalia and Ethiopia—as well as in southern Arabia. The resin typically appears as small papillae, teardrop-shaped particles, or irregular pieces, sometimes forming clumps.
 
Research on frankincense extracts began in the late 19th century, initially isolating a mixture of boswellic acids from Boswellia carterii. In the 1930s, scientists further extracted acetylated compounds. Subsequent studies systematically identified additional components, including carbonyl derivatives, pentacyclic and tetracyclic triterpenes, macrocyclic diterpenes, and various volatile oils.
 
The key active ingredient, boswellic acid, has a pentacyclic triterpene structure and is known for its anti-inflammatory properties. It works by inhibiting the formation of leukotrienes, compounds that can contribute to inflammation. Clinical studies indicate that boswellic acid effectively reduces pain in patients with knee arthritis, improves joint flexibility, and supports the repair of damaged tissues.
 
Overall, Boswellia serrata extract offers a promising natural approach for managing inflammation and promoting joint health.

Boswellia Serrata Extract Boswellic Acid Flow Chart

Function

  • Anti-inflammatory and Antibacterial Research using a randomized double-blind method on adjuvant-induced arthritis in rats demonstrated that Boswellia serrata extract possesses significant anti-inflammatory effects. The mechanism is likely related to its ability to inhibit pro-inflammatory cytokine production. Preclinical studies indicate that it can alleviate pain in knee arthritis, improve joint flexion and extension, reduce joint prominence, and promote tissue repair. This suggests potential applications for various types of arthritis. Additionally, compounds like β-caryophyllene, linalool, γ-terpinene, α-terpineol, and trans-anisene found in mastic gum exhibit in vitro anti-Helicobacter pylori activity at low concentrations, indicating a possible alternative to antibiotics for treating this infection.

  • Anti-tumor Effects Boswellic acid compounds and volatile oils in Boswellia have shown anti-tumor properties, including the inhibition of tumor cell proliferation and the induction of cell differentiation and apoptosis.

  • Anti-ulcer Properties Boswellia extract can enhance the structure and functional maturity of gastric ulcer regeneration mucosa in acetic acid-induced ulcer models in rats, improving the healing quality of ulcers.

  • Memory Enhancement β-Boswellic acid promotes the growth and branching of hippocampal neuron synapses, enhancing axonal growth and tubulin polymerization dynamics, which may lead to improved memory. Studies indicate that it can counteract memory loss associated with hypothyroidism induced by methimazole, highlighting its potential in preventing forgetfulness.

  • Additional Benefits The total organic acid extract of Boswellia demonstrates notable antiasthmatic effects in both normal and allergic guinea pig asthma models. Eight triterpenoids have been isolated and identified as active components. Clinical research on brain tumor patients suggests that frankincense resin oil can delay the oxidation of vegetable oils, exhibiting significant antioxidant activity when added to sunflower and olive oils. Furthermore, studies have shown that topical application of boswellic acids can improve symptoms of selective skin photoaging, indicating their potential use as natural active ingredients or additives in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.

Application

    • Nutritional Supplement Boswellia extract is commonly available as a nutritional supplement in forms such as tablets, capsules, and powders. It is often combined with other herbs, such as in the Boswellia Complex, which includes Celery Seed, Ginger, and Turmeric to support kidney function, joint health, and circulation.

    • Cosmetic Applications In cosmetics and skincare, Boswellia serrata extract (Boswellic Acid) serves as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent, offering oil control and anti-seborrhea benefits. With a risk factor of 1, it is considered relatively safe, showing no adverse effects for pregnant women and not causing acne.

    • Volatile Oils and Anti-Aging Benefits Frankincense volatile oil is suitable for formulating cosmetic essences. Boswellia extract promotes the activation of caspases, crucial for apoptosis, making it valuable in anti-aging products. It also activates peroxidase, enhancing its anti-inflammatory effects and helping to prevent skin redness. Additionally, Boswellia extract can whiten the skin, improve oily skin conditions, and promote hair growth.
