NSI Boswellia Extract -- 307 mg - 120 Tablets

Promotes healthy joint function, contributing to joint comfort and mobility. How does NSI® Boswellia Extract work? Boswellia serrata is a branching tree found in the dry hilly areas of India. Oleoresin is a gum derived from the tree’s bark which consists of essential oils, gum and terpenoids. It is these terpenoids that contain boswellic acids, including the alpha and beta boswellic acids which have been found to inhibit the production of leukotrienes in the body, promoting joint movement and comfort. . . Boswellic acids may also help inhibit the action of enzymes that break down cartilage, which may provide a protective benefit. In addition to promoting healthy joint function, boswellic acids may also enhance blood flow to the joint region and contribute to comfort in the lower back. NSI® Boswellia Extract is better because it:. -- Contains 307 mg of the extract standardized to 65% boswellic acids, 200 mg. -- Delivers a effective, safe and optimal amount of the extract in each single tablet serving. Did You Know? All NSI supplements are packaged in HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) bottles. These bottles keep moisture vapor out, protecting the freshness and integrity of their contents, and are 400% more effective compared other brands currently using PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottles. HDPE bottles do not break as glass can and are also recyclable so we urge you to please recycle them.

Don't Recommend, July 18, 2008
By Keppela from Reno, NV

"Herbs and nutrients are only as good as the vehicle that carries them. I found these tablets to be so hard that I doubt they are achieving adequate disintegration in the gastrointestinal tract. I don't know this for a fact, but I've been taking nutritional supplements for decades and have rarely come across tablets this hard. To get the benefit from this supplement you may have to chew the tablets and I can tell you they don't taste pleasant."

less bang for the buck, April 10, 2008
By taina from Cape Coral, FL

"I'm generally satisfied with other NSI brand purchases I've made before. Not this time, I usually buy Nature's Way Boswellia and I will stick with that. I don't feel this has the same effectiveness as Nature's Way."

Great Price for Good Product, February 27, 2008
By desertlaw

"Before I ordered this supplement, I was concerned about the question raised by others about the size of these tablets. To my delight, they are no bigger than many other supplements that I already take. I highly recommend this product."

Excellent product!, January 31, 2008
By Beecharmer from New York

"Another product I cannot live without! Boswellia is incredibly effective in reducing inflammation, pain and tenderness connected to arthritis and fibromyalgia. It is everything it claims to be and more. I have used it for about 10 years and would not be able to be as active as I am if I didn't take Boswellia."

Too soon to rate, January 20, 2008
By Pogu

"The ordering and delivery process were efficient and prompt. Taking this product as a dietary supplement is a long-term process before effects can be recognized, so it is too soon to rate it -- hence the "average" rating -- there being no "other" category. So I cannot say whether I would recommend it or not. I can recommend purchasing these types of product from Vitacost in general."

Good Herb, Terrible Pill Shape, July 9, 2007
By Niji

Value:		4 out of 5
Quality:		3 out of 5
Effectiveness:		4 out of 5
Satisfaction:		2 out of 5

"This herb works well, but these pills are far too difficult to swallow. I have to swallow it with a large spoonful of yogurt to get it down without sticking in my throat. I also gave some of it to a friend with knee pain. He said his knees stopped hurting, but the pills are hard to swallow. Neither of us will be getting another bottle of it for that reason.

I think the round and somewhat flat shape makes them much more difficult to swallow than tablets that come in an elongated capsule-like shape. The shape of this pill needs to change before I will recommend it to anyone else."
