How it works

Boswellic acids (AKBA in particular) inhibit 5-LOX enzyme, reducing leukotriene-driven synovial inflammation. Also inhibits matrix metalloproteinases that degrade cartilage.

Use standardised AKBA-containing extract (Aflapin or 5-Loxin brands have the most evidence). Generally safe at standard doses. May interact with anticoagulants.
