Guggul helps improve bone mineralization and supports connective tissue in joints. Boswellia serrata resin extract is standardized to contain 70% Boswellic Acids. Boswellic Acids are believed to contribute towards benefits of Boswellia as anti-inflammatory substance to reduce pain and inflammation of joints. Formation of excess leukotrienes in the joints causes inflammation, swelling and pain. One of the Boswellic acids known as AKBA (Acetyl-11-keto- β-boswellic acid) inhibits an enzyme (5-lipoxygenase) that produces leukotrienes, thereby helps reduce joint pain, inflammation and swelling. Triphala and Long Pepper support purification and removal of toxins, thereby help joint function.
