Hello Margie, I have done a little research into Boswellia and this is what I have gained from the search. Boswellia is a herbal extract taken from the Boswellia Serrata tree.
It is known as Indian frankincense and has been used in Asian and African society as folk medicine. It's properties treat chronic inflammatory illness as well as some other health conditions. There is research on its efficacy on certain websites. However yes, speaking with your main health professional is the best advice you have thought of.
I have included one website below that mentions research on all its herbal supplements.
You may like to check the site out bearing in mind that they are a business company. Good luck and do keep in touch with us.
I’m not familiar with that particular herb but I can tell you that you are right. Doctors are not going to suggest or encourage anything outside their usual treatment. It’s up to you. I have been taking many herbs and supplements since I started this at GFR 11. That was almost 4 years ago, so they do make a difference. You’re in my prayers. God can do anything 😀
Personally, I would advise against any herbal medications. Herbal meds are (by nature) mixtures of a lot of substances and therefore can have a LOT of effects on the body. Please be careful, not just for kidney health, but for a host of other problems.
Chiropractors generally are not well versed in internal medicine and often can promote things which they really don’t understand. Another reason to be careful. Good luck.
