Sabinsa ~ Boswellin® PS

PISCATAWAY, N.J.Sabinsa introduced Boswellin® PS, a natural extract from the gum resin of Boswellia serrata (Indian frankincense), with enhanced water solubility and joint health support potential. Sabinsa will debut Boswellin PS at SupplyExpo booth # 313 at the Anaheim Convention Center in California, March 12 to 14, 2010.

In addition to boswellic acids, (the active principles for which Boswellia extracts are conventionally standardized), the PS version contains Polysal, a natural polysaccharide from the gum resin of Boswellia serrata. Moreover, the PS version with a two-stage active constituents release profile provides longer lasting benefits than conventional Boswellia serrata extracts that are based on boswellic acids alone. Both boswellic acids (more specifically Acetyl-11-keto-beta-boswellic acid, AKBBA, a boswellic acids, present in enriched concentrations in Boswellin PS) and Polysal are effective in reducing the markers of inflammation, with benefits in managing the symptoms of discomfort associated with conditions such as arthritis. Two-stage action refers to the initial healthful effects of the water-soluble Polysal that are later sustained by the more slowly absorbed lipophilic boswellic acids, AKBBA in particular. Boswellin PS contains no added excipients or fillers, and offers safe and sustained natural support in managing discomfort associated with inflammation.
