WHAT DOES IT DO?
According to the manufacturer:
"Boswellia AKBA supports the structural integrity, motility and comfort of joint cartilage and promotes gastrointestinal health and cell health, primarily by maintaining healthy 5-lipoxygenase activity.
Boswellic acids maintain healthy 5 lipoxygenase (5 LO) activity, moderating leukotriene biosynthesis. Data suggests that of the various boswellic acids, 3-acetyl-11-keto-beta-boswellic acid, or AKBA, is considered the most powerful. AKBA helps preserve the structural integrity of joint cartilage, promotes gastrointestinal health and maintains a healthy immune mediator cascade at the cellular level. 5-LOXIN is a patent pending boswellia extract providing ten times as much AKBA as typical boswellia extracts. In addition to maintaining healthy 5-LO activity, exciting new research has revealed that 5-LOXIN may influence healthy gene expression of immune compounds. In studies, 5-LOXIN has demonstrated the potential to support joint motility and comfort, in part by promoting a healthy immune response. It may also play a role in maintaining healthy matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity, supporting connective tissue structural composition. Additionally, a randomized double blind study involving 102 individuals revealed that AKBA supports gastrointestinal health. Further studies have indicated that AKBA may provide gastrointestinal support by maintaining healthy immune activity in the endothelial lining of the digestive tract. Moreover, studies suggest AKBA supports healthy cell signaling and cell cycle function for high capacity cellular support."
