Boswellia Therapy Overview

Updated Jul 1, 2022

WHAT IS BOSWELLIA THERAPY?

Extracts from the Boswellia tree (also known as frankincense) have been studied to determine their health benefits. Research shows that Boswellia extracts have powerful anti-cancer effects and also anti-inflammatory effects.

 

HOW DOES BOSWELLIA THERAPY WORK?

Boswellia extract and also various chemical components of Boswellia extract have been shown to fight cancer in different ways. Anti-cancer mechanisms include triggering natural cell suicide ("apoptosis"), growth inhibition, blocking the growth of new blood vessels in tumours ("anti-angiogenic") and activation of tumour inhibiting genes.

 

WHAT ARE THE COMMON SIDE EFFECTS OF BOSWELLIA THERAPY?

Side effects are generally mild or non-existent. Depending on the dose and frequency of administration, some people may have nausea, diarrhea or constipation.

 

HOW FAST DOES BOSWELLIA THERAPY WORK?

At Medicor Boswellia therapy is used in combination with other natural medicines and drugs. We have seen remarkable results in combination with the drug DCA, such as remission of aggressive and advanced stage cancers. Therapy typically takes up to 3 months to evaluate, but we may see objective results earlier.

 

HOW IS BOSWELLIA THERAPY ADMINISTERED?

Boswellia therapy may be administered using a proprietary topical formula developed by our team, as daily oral capsules or liquid, or in future, potentially by intravenous infusion at the Medicor office (research is ongoing).
