Our Members Asked:
Is Boswellia not well absorbed? Should I take it with food?
Medically reviewed and edited by Tod Cooperman, M.D.
Answer:
Yes, the key compound in Boswellia serrata extracts, AKBA, is fat-soluble and not well absorbed if taken only with water. Taking Boswellia extracts with fatty foods may greatly increase absorption. Certain special formulations of Boswellia extract may also enhance its bioavailability, as discussed in the Joint Health Supplements Review (Covering Glucosamine, Chondroitin, MSM and Boswellia) >>Join today to unlock all member benefits including full access to all CL Answers and over 1,300 reviews.
