      The article offers information on the plant boswellia. It says that boswellia is a herbal medicine for inflammatory tissue conditions, colitis, and cancer and is native to Asia and Africa. The dried exudate from the Boswellia Serrata tree is remarked for the anti-rheumatic activity of the guggals from certain trees and the resin from the bark is responsible for the herb's anti-inflammatory and anti-arthritic activities. It discusses various studies on the treatment capabilities of boswellia.
