What exactly is frankincense oil?
Frankincense, also known as olibanum, is made from the resin of the Boswellia tree, a tree that typically grows in the dry mountainous regions of India, Africa, and the Middle East.
Frankincense has a woody, spicy odor and can be inhaled, absorbed through the skin, or taken as a supplement.
Used in traditional Ayurvedic medicine, frankincense offers a number of health benefits, from improved arthritis and digestion to reduced asthma and better oral health. It may even help fight certain types of cancer.
Uses and benefits of frankincense oil:
Frankincense has anti-inflammatory effects that can help reduce joint inflammation caused by arthritis.
In humans, frankincense extract may help reduce symptoms of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
Combinations of incense with other supplements can also be effective.

After using essential oils, immediately close the caps tightly to prevent oxidation. For best results, please store high-quality essential oils at room temperature and in the original bottle. You should avoid storing oils near any type of heat, including cabinets over stoves, areas in direct sunlight, and areas with excessive humidity such as bathrooms.
