Frankincense Devil's Claw Capsules

Due to their beneficial health benefits, frankincense and devil's claw have been traditionally valued for a long time.

Phyto Frankincense Devil's Clawcontains the valuable extracts from the resin of the frankincense tree and the devil's claw.

Frankincense has long been highly valued for its medicinal properties. The frankincense tree belongs to the balsam family and can grow up to eight meters tall. It is found primarily in arid, desert-like regions such as Oman, northeastern Africa, or northern India. Many cultures valued the scent of frankincense as the most noble fragrance, usually reserved for kings and gods. In the early Middle Ages, frankincense became an indispensable part of the Holy Mass.

In Indian Ayurvedic medicine"Boswellia serrata," traditionally used in folk medicine, is also known as "Indian frankincense." Frankincense is the name given to the dried resin that exudes as a whitish milky sap from cuts in the trunk or branches of the frankincense tree. When exposed to air, the resin quickly solidifies and forms drop-like, ivory to brownish structures. Frankincense resin tastes bitter and is practically odorless. The familiar, typical smell only develops when frankincense grains are burned. The resin contains essential oils (e.g., α-pinene, α-thujene, methyleugenol), resin acids (especially boswellic acids), and mucilage.

As valuable health ingredientsThe boswellic acids contained in the resin are considered particularly beneficial. These are triterpenes and are thought to be responsible for frankincense's positive health effects. In the medicine of ancient cultures, frankincense was considered an important remedy against infections and inflammations of all kinds.

Patients should only take frankincense after consulting and under the supervision of their physician. Frankincense can occasionally cause stomach and intestinal upset, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and allergic reactions. Due to a lack of data, pregnant and breastfeeding women, as well as children, should avoid frankincense.

The devil's claw (Harpagophytum procumbens)has also long been valued for its valuable ingredients. Devil's claw develops ground-lie shoots up to 1.5 meters long, which form woody fruits with arm-like outgrowths, hence the name devil's claw. The main active ingredient of devil's claw root is the intensely bitter harpagoside. The root extract is generally well-tolerated and suitable for long-term use.
