Shallaki

Product description

Shallaki (boswellic acid) effectively treats problems with joints. The pain-mitigating characteristics of this herbal ingredient are applicable in treatments of arthritis and sore joints. Due to its ability to decrease inflammation, Shallaki brings relief for the discomforting morning rigidity of joints.

Boswellia takes its origin from India and Africa. This plant has long been recognized for its healing characteristics in treatments of skin disorders, infected wounds, joint issues, welts, menstrual problems, and for improvement of general well-being. Boswellia also finds use in smoothing wrinkles and bettering the look of skin.

Research background

Research evidence strongly supports the use of Boswellia in cases of osteoarthritis. Studies show that the medication is helpful for asthma sufferers and also decreases swelling in patients with brain tumors.

Two studies involving placebo-controlled groups showed a substantial decrease in painful sensations and swelling in a total of 81 rheumatoid arthritis patients over the treatment period of 3 months. Another comparative investigation in 60 people suffering from arthritis demonstrated symptomatic benefits of Boswellia extract in a 6-month therapy as compared to oral gold therapy in the same cases of arthritis. Furthermore, several double-blind clinical trials unpublished as of the moment have found preparations of Boswellia to have a therapeutic effect in rheumatoid arthritis sufferers.

Safety information

Refrain from using Shallaki if hypersensitive or allergic to Boswellia or any species from the family Burseraceae.

Shallaki may interfere with certain dietary supplements and herbal preparations, namely:

• additives that are processed by the liver and employ the enzymatic activity of the cytochrome P450 system. Such an interference could result in increased levels of the medicinal ingredients in the blood;
• herbs that impact the blood sugar levels. As Boswellia may lower the sugar level, any synergy with other preparations working in that direction can cause a significant drop in the concentration of blood glucose;
• action of sedative supplements may be further enhanced by the concomitant use of Shallaki;
• also, additives with anti-inflammatory, anti-swelling, antifungal, antibacterial characteristics.

Visit a physician to confirm that your current treatments of skin issues, arthritis, asthma as well as a pain-relieving agent will provide their effects safely along with Shallaki.

Side effects

Shallaki does not normally cause side effects when taken appropriately and in the prescribed doses.

However, caution should be observed in patients with sensitive blood sugar levels. The sugar-reducing effect of Boswellia may appear as a side effect to diabetes sufferers or people who need to control their blood sugar very strictly. To avoid issues associated with insufficient glucose levels you should have your blood regularly monitored by a healthcare expert or professional medical attendant, who should also make all the necessary medication adjustments.

Shallaki poses a low risk of adverse reactions in people with a weak stomach. The herbal ingredients may cause diarrhea, constipation, acid reflux, increases in acid levels, nausea, stomach cramps and stomachache.

Patients with disorders of the nervous system may feel dizzy and experience headache. Operate or drive heavy machinery cautiously.
