Boswellia spp.
Resin Tears
2 oz. Kraft Compostable Pouch
In ancient times, frankincense was used by upper-class Egyptians to ward off foul odors, which were associated with evil. It is still burned as incense today but needs an outside heat source, such as incense charcoal, to burn. Frankincense is an oleo-gum-resin that seeps from the tree when the bark is injured or cut. The liquid solidifies on contact with air into globular chunks or "tears."
Frankincense can be used in several ways. You can take it as an oral supplement in a capsule or tablet or use it in topical creams.
It’s also available as an essential oil for aromatherapy or topical use. It’s important to dilute this form with carrier oil before applying it to the skin and to avoid ingesting it.
