Swanson Boswellia - 400Mg, 100 Capsules

It's about time I write this -- I've now been using Boswellia for almost 7 months, and I can honestly say I don't see myself ever NOT taking this supplement.I had an nasty old ankle injury that reared its ugly head a few years ago and post surgery it's pretty good --- but on long walking days, not so much --- and my posterior tibial tendon (which everyone seemed to ignore) still was causing me these shooting pains that were stop-in-your-tracks painful. Add in some flat-footedness... and I hated being on my feet.I found that my daily Glucosamine with MSM pills one month were a fancier brand that'd been on clearance and had this stuff in there - and that my symptoms were practically non-existent. I 'noticed' major results in about 3 weeks - and appreciated it all the more when I stopped taking it. When the next month's supply ran out, I bought the expensive supplements again - and my tweaking PTT stopped and my feet felt so much better.A google search later and I found this brand- I take 2 pills every morning, and have a bottle at my desk to try and remember to take midday. When I know I'm going to be going on vacation and doing a lot of walking, I'll make sure I am taking it 3 times a day like clockwork for at least a week beforehand. This has made a HUGE difference in my life. I even gave a friend of mine who has Rheumatoid Arthritis a bottle to try and even she's experiencing a reduction in flare ups.I've found other places to get this cheaper on occasion - but this brand gives excellent results and is absolutely worth trying!

I highly recommend taking Boswellia for general problems with inflammation, especially from arthritis, it's helped a lot with overall pain relief. Herbals literally restored my health in just over 3 months.Berberine for excess fluid is amazing, I no longer take type 2 diabetes medication and my recent blood test for sugar came back normal last week.I went from 240 lbs to 170 lbs in 3 months, all fluid!This past February I was hospitalized for heart failure, I was bloated, had edema, sciatica, I could barely walk across the room.My doctor had actually told me to get on the list for a liver transplant, that's when I grew desperate enough to try something else & started to research herbal remedies. I've been treating myself with a long list of different ancient herbal remedies, milk thistle for the liver, plus desicated liver capsules, collegen, astragalus, bromelain, burdock root, turmeric, and a must is zinc, which from my best understanding opens the pathways into the cells for the others to work.It's too long a story to continue, but big pharma was not helping me, and I'm inclined to think the combination of all or some of those prescribed meds was causing my decline. I was on 13 different prescriptions, I now take only 3. I kept my doctor informed, so I had regular blood test & office visits.Seek advise from an herbalist, and keep your doctor informed. What worked for me may not be right for others, Healthline.com is good cross reference site with the latest test results.

My Migraine Specialist highly recommended I give Boswellia a try. He works at a Top Headache Clinic. So when he recommends something, I try it. We've had a number of fails, but this one was a win. I spent a month looking in stores for Boswellia, finding none and most pharmacist having never heard of it. So I just went to Amazon.Glad I gave it a try. I am sensitive to medications and supplements. I can't even take a daily multi-vitamin because they make me feel nauseated. Boswellia does not. I am a life long migraine mess, the last 15 years I've had chronic migraine.I've been getting botox injections for migraine for over a year. And while it helps with the severity, it does little for the frequency. Boswellia on the other hand reduces the severity of my migraines and also has helped with frequency. I have been taking it daily for 3 months. Long enough to tell if it's placebo effect or real effect. It's real.Swanson brand was the original brand I tried. And since it helps, I will continue with this brand.The pills are capsules. And they smell a bit like frankincense. Given what Boswellia IS... that makes sense.My order arrived fully sealed. :)Very much so will be ordering again, and again!

Iv used this for years my doc laughed at first. Now they tell patient about it for RA

My neighbour, in her 80's, has arthritis all down her spine and recommended this as it did wonders for her as it did for her son who has it in his hands.My mother, in her 70's, began to have severe pain in her knees due to arthritis. Dreaded having to get up from a sitting position because it was agony. The severity of the pain would change depending on the weather conditions etc. I suggested she try this. Taking two caplets 3 times a day. After 6 weeks she began to notice a difference but we weren't 100% convinced whether it was the pills or the changes in the weather. After 8 weeks my mother was convinced that it was the pills as she had gone through various weather conditions. She called me to tell me that for the first time in years she went for a day where she didn't notice the pain. She has pain when she first gets up in the morning but a bit of exercise soon loosens everything up and the pain doesn't come back like it used to.She is finally able to go for walks and work on the garden with no problems.She uses it in conjuction with fish oil and glucosamine. In this case results appeared after about 6 weeks but it may be different for others or it might not work at all. All I can say is that, for my mother, this is a life saver.
