Boswellia Capsules with 20% AKBA - 1000 mg Extract + Vitamin C, D, Calcium & Manganese | 120 Capsules

Boswellia (Boswellia serrata) - the resin of the Indian frankincense tree

  • Indian frankincense (Boswellia serrata Roxb.) is a tree of the torchwood family (Burseraceae) that grows in the dry hill regions of India. The gum resin (olibanum) is used: it seeps out when the bark is scored and hardens into golden-yellow tears in the air.
  • Its characteristic constituents are pentacyclic triterpenic acids, the boswellic acids - including β-boswellic acid, 11-keto-β-boswellic acid (KBA) and 3-acetyl-11-keto-β-boswellic acid (AKBA), which is considered the most important marker compound.
  • Frankincense resin has been traded for more than 3,000 years and is used in India's Ayurvedic tradition under the name "Shallaki" - today it is used as a standardised extract with a defined boswellic acid content.

Double standardised - 85% boswellic acids and 20% AKBA

  • Green Naturals Boswellia capsules contain 1000 mg extract with 850 mg boswellic acids per daily dose - compared to many manufacturers who use ground resin powder without a declared active content.
  • In addition, the extract is standardised to 20% AKBA (200 mg per daily dose) - compared to many suppliers who do not declare the proportion of this marker compound at all.
  • The metabolism and pharmacokinetics of boswellic acids - especially KBA and AKBA - have been investigated in vitro and in vivo (Abdel-Tawab et al., 2008); a review summarises the preclinical, pharmacokinetic and clinical data on Boswellia serrata (Abdel-Tawab et al., 2011).

Plus vitamin C, D, calcium & manganese - with proven benefits

  • Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of cartilage and bones; manganese contributes to the normal formation of connective tissue (authorised EFSA claims).
  • Vitamin D and manganese contribute to the maintenance of normal bones, and calcium is needed for the maintenance of normal bones; vitamin D also contributes to the maintenance of normal muscle function. Per daily dose: 5.0 µg vitamin D (100% NRV), 24 mg vitamin C (30% NRV), 0.6 mg manganese (30% NRV) and 120 mg calcium (15% NRV).
  • 120 vegan capsules per tin last for 60 days - a 2-month supply with 2 capsules daily.

  • Optimal time of intake

    Take 2 capsules daily with sufficient liquid, ideally with a meal. Boswellic acids are fat-soluble - what matters most is regular daily intake.

    Daily dose: 2 capsules (= 1000 mg Boswellia extract with 850 mg boswellic acids and 200 mg AKBA, 24 mg vitamin C, 5.0 µg vitamin D, 120 mg calcium and 0.6 mg manganese). We recommend continuous intake for at least 8 weeks. The pack of 120 capsules lasts for 60 days.

What is Boswellia?

Boswellia (frankincense) is the dried gum resin of trees of the genus Boswellia from the torchwood family (Burseraceae). Food supplements mainly use Indian frankincense (Boswellia serrata). Its resin contains pentacyclic triterpenic acids, the so-called boswellic acids. In these capsules, Boswellia is present as a standardised extract with 85% boswellic acids and 20% AKBA.

What is Boswellia good for?

There are currently no authorised health claims under EFSA for Boswellia itself, although its constituents are being researched intensively. The proven benefits of this complex come from the added micronutrients: vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of cartilage, manganese to the normal formation of connective tissue, and vitamin D and calcium to the maintenance of normal bones.

What does Boswellia do in the body?

The boswellic acids from frankincense resin - especially KBA and AKBA - are being researched with regard to their mechanisms, metabolism and pharmacokinetics (Abdel-Tawab et al., 2008; Abdel-Tawab et al., 2011). Health claims for Boswellia are currently not authorised under EU law. The vitamins and minerals contained contribute to the maintenance of normal bones and, in the case of vitamin C, to the normal function of cartilage.

Is Boswellia healthy?

Frankincense resin has been used for thousands of years and is used as a standardised extract in food supplements. This product provides defined amounts per daily dose: 850 mg boswellic acids, including 200 mg AKBA. The authorised health claims come from vitamin C, vitamin D, calcium and manganese - for example for the maintenance of normal bones and normal muscle function (vitamin D).

Where does Boswellia come from?

Indian frankincense (Boswellia serrata) grows in the dry hill regions of India. Other frankincense species such as Boswellia sacra come from the Arabian Peninsula and north-east Africa. The raw material for this product comes from cultivation outside the EU; the capsules are filled and lab-tested in Austria.

What is AKBA in Boswellia?

AKBA stands for 3-acetyl-11-keto-β-boswellic acid and is considered the most important marker compound among the boswellic acids of frankincense. It is one of the most frequently studied compounds of the resin. Our extract is standardised to 20% AKBA - equivalent to 200 mg AKBA per daily dose of 2 capsules.

How long does Boswellia take to work?

As there are no authorised health claims for Boswellia, we cannot promise a time frame for any effect. In scientific studies, Boswellia extract is usually used over several weeks. We therefore recommend continuous daily intake for at least 8 weeks - one tin of 120 capsules lasts for 60 days.

How much Boswellia per day?

The recommended daily dose is 2 capsules. They provide 1000 mg Boswellia extract with 850 mg boswellic acids and 200 mg AKBA as well as 24 mg vitamin C (30% NRV), 5.0 µg vitamin D (100% NRV), 120 mg calcium (15% NRV) and 0.6 mg manganese (30% NRV). Do not exceed the recommended daily dose.

Which Boswellia capsules are the best?

What matters is a declared active content, a sensible dosage and independent laboratory testing. Look for the declaration of boswellic acids and especially the AKBA content in percent and milligrams. Green Naturals® Boswellia Plus Complex provides 1000 mg extract with 85% boswellic acids and 20% AKBA, supplemented with vitamin C, D, calcium and manganese, in a vegan capsule.

Can the capsules be opened?

Yes. The plant-based HPMC capsule can be opened carefully and the contents stirred into yoghurt, muesli or a smoothie, for example. Please note that Boswellia extract has a tart, bitter taste of its own. The easiest way is to swallow the whole capsule with sufficient liquid.

Is the product completely natural?

Yes. The capsules contain Boswellia extract from genuine Boswellia serrata resin, calcium carbonate, rice flour as a natural carrier as well as vitamin C, vitamin D and manganese in a plant-based HPMC capsule shell. The formulation contains no artificial colourings, preservatives or flavourings and is vegan.

Is the product suitable for pregnant women?

The product is intended for adults only. Pregnant women, breastfeeding women and children should consult a doctor or pharmacist before use. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose; food supplements are not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.

When should Boswellia capsules be taken?

The time can be chosen individually. We recommend taking the 2 capsules with sufficient liquid with a meal, as boswellic acids are fat-soluble compounds. What matters is regular daily intake over a longer period of time.

Are the Boswellia capsules available in pharmacies?

In Germany, Green Naturals® Boswellia Plus Complex is available in pharmacies and online pharmacies under the German pharmacy code PZN 21031631. In other countries, you can order the capsules directly from the Green Naturals online shop or from selected online pharmacies.
