Description
Frankincense oil is extracted from the gum or resin of frankincense or olibanum trees, of the genus Boswellia carteri. Common species used to extract essential oil include Boswellia carterii, B. frereana, and B. sacra. The main components of this essential oil (depending on the species and chemotype) are alpha-pinene, octanol, alpha-thujene, octyl acetate, incensole, and incensole acetate. Frankincense has been a popular ingredient in cosmetics and incense burners for centuries. It has even been found in the remains of ancient Egyptian and Anglo-Saxon civilizations. Furthermore, it is closely associated with religious traditions and rites, particularly the Christian tradition. Frankincense has been used for hundreds of years in many religions, prayer, rituals, and ceremonies for power and anointment.

Benefits & Functions
Frankincense oil has a wide array of health benefits. It’s anti-inflammatory, antiseptic and an astringent. The oil is also considered a tonic because it benefits all of the body systems, including the digestive, respiratory and nervous systems.
Boosts the immune system – Studies have shown that frankincense oil can boost your immune system, allowing you to fight off bacteria, viruses and even certain types of cancers more effectively. Frankincense oil can also break up phlegm in your respiratory tract and lungs, helping alleviate congestion and reduce coughing, and reduce the pain associated with minor cuts and bug bites or stings.
Because frankincense has antiseptic properties, it can also kill germs and reduce inflammation in the mouth, which may prevent bad breath, cavities, mouth sores, toothaches and other oral infections.
Reduces stress and anxiety – When inhaled, frankincense oil has been shown to reduce both high blood pressure and heart rate. Inhaling the oil can also reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety without any of the unwanted side effects of prescription medications.
