Frankincense

- Anti Inflammatory -

Frankincense resin is edible and often used as traditional medicine in many Asian countries to cure bronchial and urinary infections. In China it is used to relieve menstrual pain, gum, mouth, and throat complaints, and also as a rejuvenating medicine in India. In Chinese medicine, it (ru xiang) along with myrrh (mo yao) have antibacterial properties as well as blood-moving uses. It can be used topically or orally. The Egyptians cleansed body cavities in the mummification process with frankincense and natron. In Persian medicine, it is used for diabetes, gastritis and stomach ulcers. Frankincense shares its popularity with turmeric as one of the best supplements for joint health. It is said to be both heating, as it supports healthy circulation, and cooling, with its soothing action on the tissues. Please note that boswellia is a gum resin and will naturally clump. It may not dissolve completely in warm water.
