Traditional use of incense

Frankincense has a long and significant tradition in traditional medicine in many cultures (as part of long-term health maintenance) and has been used in cultures including India, China, Arabia, Greco-Roman, and Egypt. Preparations made from frankincense are mentioned in ancient texts from various cultures and have been used for thousands of years (Hippocrates, Celsus, Galen, Dioscorides, Hildegard von Bingen, Paracelsus). The list of positive health properties associated with frankincense is long, but it has been used most frequently to maintain mobility, even under adverse physical conditions.

Ingredients in the frankincense capsules Boswellia Vida

Indian frankincense – Boswellia serrata

Frankincense contains a mixture of essential oils, resins and Proteins, the amounts of which vary depending on the species. Since Boswellia serrata has the highest content of physiologically interesting components, this species is of particular interest to modern scientists. Boswellia Vida contains a dry frankincense extract from Indian incense ( Boswellia serrata ) with a high content of these substances.

Frankincense is extracted from the gum resin of the frankincense tree (Boswellia). There are over 20 Boswellia species, which belong to the balsam family (Burseraceae). Frankincense trees require specific conditions to thrive, namely absolute dryness and soils with a specific mineral composition. These conditions are found only in certain Asian and African regions. Over 80% of frankincense comes from Somalia. Boswellia serrata is native to India, primarily in the lower mountains along the Himalayas, but also in northern and central India. To harvest, trunks and branches are cut open. The sticky, milky plant sap that exudes slowly dries in the air to form a viscous mass, the frankincense resin (olibanum). It is collected after several weeks. A longer waiting period is required for good quality, but the quality improves and becomes purer over time.

Sunflower lecithin as an emulsifier

Boswellia Vida also contains Lecithin from sunflowers with 20% phosphatidylcholine. Lecithins influence the permeability of membranes (skin, mucous membranes). The absorption and bioavailability of lipophilic (fat-soluble) ingredients is increased and improved by the addition of lecithins as an emulsifier, according to studies**.

Grape seed extract – OPC

Grape seed extract contains a remarkable amount of OPC (oligomeric proanthocyanidins). The grape seed extract from Italy used for Boswellia Vida has an excellent ORAC value of over 1,660,000 µmol TE/100g (value for antioxidant capacity). OPC are very well researched secondary plant substances (see studies on PubMed).

Manganese(II) gluconate

Manganese(II) gluconate has the following effects in the body:

• Contributes to the maintenance of normal bones.
• Contributes to normal connective tissue formation.
• Helps protect cells from oxidative stress.
• Contributes to normal metabolism.

Vitamin C (ascorbic acid)

Vitamin C has the following effects in the body:

• Contributes to normal collagen formation. This is important for the normal function of bones and cartilage, for example.
• Contributes to normal energy metabolism.
• Contributes to the normal function of the immune system.
• Contributes to the normal function of the nervous system.
• Helps protect cells from oxidative stress.
