Boswellia carteri Powdered Extract

For those looking to access the benefits of Boswellic Acids, this extract is for you. Our Certified Organic Boswellia carteri powdered extract is derived from our direct-sourced, Certified Organic Boswellia carteri resin. Four types of Boswellia resin have been identified to contain Boswellic Acids (BAs) with Boswellia carteri being one of them. While BAs are a primary component of the resin, distilled frankincense essential oil does not contain any Boswellic acid as these components are non-volatile and too large to come over in the distillation process.

This is a 100% pure, Certified Organic Boswellia carteri resin extract with no added fillers. It is offered as a versatile fine powder which can be used in a variety of ways.
