Frankincense Extract Fights Arthritis Pain

Tuft's University Health and Nutrition newsletter reports that an extract from frankincense--one of the gifts of the magi---might help ease arthritis symptoms. The first randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of the extract, trade named 5-loxin, in osteoarthritis of the knee found significant pain relief plus reduced levels of a marker of joint pathology........my knees have been creaking lately. I might try this!
