Its golden resin, called Shallaki in Sanskrit and salai guggul or dhup in Hindi, has been tapped in the dry hills of central and northern India for thousands of years and appears in the Sushruta Samhita.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA note on species: \"frankincense\" covers several Boswellia trees. The Biblical and Arabian frankincense is a different species. This is Indian frankincense, Boswellia serrata, with its own 2,000-year story and some of the strongest research of any traditional resin. A 2020 meta-analysis of 7 randomized controlled trials found Boswellia may support joint comfort, stiffness, and function, with the best results after at least 4 weeks.* Honest note: most of those trials used concentrated extracts, so whole resin is the gentler, traditional form. Preclinical research suggests its boswellic acids, especially one called AKBA, may support a healthy inflammatory response.*\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Indian Frankincense?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeta-analysis of 7 RCTs: may support joint comfort, stiffness, and mobility*\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMay support a healthy inflammatory response*\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRich in boswellic acids, including AKBA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKnown as Shallaki in Ayurvedic medicine and recorded in the Sushruta Samhita\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBest results in research came with consistent use over at least 4 weeks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhole golden resin tears — grind fresh for each use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdults: grind 2 pea-sized pieces (approx. 1 g) with a dedicated mortar and pestle or spice grinder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTake with lukewarm water after a meal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTraditional tip: In Ayurveda, Shallaki is taken with lukewarm water after meals.
