BosPure® (Boswellia serrata extract)

BosPure® is a standardised extract of Boswellia serrata, the tree that produces Indian frankincense. Boswellia has a long history of use in traditional medicine and is best known today for supporting joint comfort, mobility and a healthy inflammatory response.

Its activity comes largely from naturally occurring boswellic acids, including AKBA (acetyl-11-keto-beta-boswellic acid), one of the most studied compounds in Boswellia.

Joint Comfort and Mobility

Boswellic acids influence inflammatory pathways involved in joint discomfort and tissue irritation.

This makes Boswellia particularly useful in formulas designed to support comfortable movement, especially as joints are placed under greater strain through ageing, repetitive activity or exercise.

BosPure® is often combined with ingredients such as glucosamine, chondroitin, curcumin and collagen to provide broader support for cartilage and connective tissue.

A Standardised Boswellia Extract

The composition of herbal extracts can vary considerably depending on the plant material and processing method.

BosPure® is standardised to provide consistent levels of key boswellic acids, including enriched AKBA. This allows a more predictable amount of the active plant compounds to be delivered than would be expected from ordinary frankincense powder.

Supporting a Healthy Inflammatory Response

Inflammation is part of the body's normal response to physical stress and tissue damage. Problems can arise when inflammatory activity becomes excessive or prolonged.

Boswellia is commonly used to help maintain a balanced inflammatory response, making it relevant not only to joint health but also to physical recovery and healthy ageing.

BosPure® for Pets

Boswellia extracts are also used in joint supplements for dogs and other animals. BosPure® can complement glucosamine, chondroitin, Greenshell™ Mussel and other mobility ingredients to support joint comfort, flexibility and comfortable everyday movement, particularly in active or ageing pets.
