Boswellia

[Indigo]

What do you think? Boswellia is an herbal anti-inflammatory...do you think this might help with PANDAS symptoms? I'm trying dd on it, the doctor said it couldn't do any harm, so I could try it.

My PANDAS son has taken Boswellia for almost a year and a half. It is one of about 40 different supplements that he is on. I can't say that Boswellia had any impact on his tics, but it was one small piece in his recovery. He is currently tic free, and healthy as ever. We will wait and see how this winter will impact his health, but I am optimistic.

my son takes Boswellia with Curcumin (the BOSWELLIN formula by NOW) as an anti inflammatory for his Crohn's disease and it has had a dramatic and remarkable effect! even his doc is amazed.

 

as an extra benefit it also is reported tohave serotonin enhancing properties

I was wondering where you buy this and is it a vitamin? When you say it helps him, is it helping with the tics?

 

Thanks

Boswellin is an ayurvedic herb and curcumin is extracted from the spice, turmeric

 

they are anti inflammatory in action and boswellin also boosts serotonin (helpful for OCD)

 

as to effect on tics....... when his Crohn's inflammation and OCD is under control, that results in better overall health and so it has an indirect positive effct on the tics

 

I purchase ours at iherb.com
