One of the recent discoveries related to this herb is the effect it can have on lymphocytes and T-cells within the body. These are crucial immune system components that can affect the severity and response time of the immune system. When Boswellia serrata is regularly consumed, it can optimize the immune system to more effectively respond to foreign substances and infectious pathogens.

Many retailers, both online and in stores, will sell the resin in capsules. It may occasionally be possible to buy the raw resin, which has a hard texture similar to that of sap.

The evidence evaluated here may be encouraging, but it is not convincing. Not enough large randomised clinical trials have been published for any condition. The medications used in these trials cannot be directly compared in terms of contents and strength. The pharmacokinetics and optimal dose of B serrata extracts are largely unknown; usually 600-3000 mg gum resin per day or equivalents are recommended for oral intake. 18 Source of funding or sponsorship was undisclosed in all but one trial. 13
