Tame the Flames: 6 Antiinflammatory Supplements

You already know all about the benefits of turmeric (and omega-3 fats and green tea) for fighting inflammation. But if you're still battling pain, stiffness, soreness and discomfort, you have other anti-inflammatory supplement options. Here are six science-backed solutions shown to tame the flames, and what to look for in a supplement.

1. BOSWELLIA

Also known as Indian frankincense, boswellia is derived from the resin of the Boswellia serrata tree and has been used for thousands of years in Ayurvedic medicine to treat a variety of ailments. It's rich in boswellic acids, including acetyl-11-keto-beta-boswellic acid (AKBA), shown to modulate enzymes that promote inflammation. Studies suggest boswellia reduces pain, eases swelling, improves mobility and significantly decreases inflammation; it's especially effective for osteoarthritis, knee pain and soreness after exercising. You'll find boswellia in capsules, softgels or liquid extracts. Because it's not well absorbed, bio-enhanced delivery systems are best. Look for forms standardized to provide at least 50% boswellic acids, including 10% AKBA.
