Boswellia carterii

Boswellia carterii, commonly known as frankincense, is a resin extracted from the Boswellia tree. It has been used for centuries in traditional medicine and religious ceremonies for its aromatic properties. Frankincense contains compounds called boswellic acids, which have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. It is commonly used in essential oils, aromatherapy, and topical applications to support skin health, reduce inflammation, and promote relaxation. While generally considered safe, it’s important to use it as directed, and consult a healthcare provider if you have any health concerns or are pregnant.
