An Analysis of Boswellia serrata for Rheumatoid Arthritis Treatment

This report investigates the effectiveness of Boswellia serrata in treating rheumatoid arthritis (RA). It begins by introducing Boswellia as an anti-inflammatory agent capable of alleviating pain and preventing cartilage loss. The report outlines the aim to understand Boswellia's effectiveness and the objective to analyze the causes and impacts of RA. Methodologically, the study employs a search strategy using keywords and MeSH terms across databases like PubMed and ScienceDirect, adhering to inclusion and exclusion criteria visualized through a PRISMA flowchart. The discussion highlights the difficulties faced by individuals with RA and emphasizes Boswellia's potential to provide relief due to its anti-inflammatory and pain-killing properties. The recommendation underscores the safe usage of Boswellia, typically 300-400mg three times daily, for managing RA symptoms and suggests further research into natural medications for RA patients. The report concludes with a list of references supporting the analysis.

inflammatory in nature and have the ability to provide high effectiveness in
delivery of better response towards the pain and inflammation (Doaee and et.

Search strategy
 The search strategy is defined as the aspect which is refers within the
research process for collection and selection of data and information. The
search strategy usually plays vital role in the collection of data or
information from the reliable and validated source which may include
website, books, journals and many more Singh and et. al., 2020). the major
search strategy which is used within the research process are PubMed,
Science direct, Springer Link and Medline Plus (Divisha and et. al., 2018).
These all are functional search strategy which have millions of article which
help to provide the reliable data and information which play vital role in the
relevance of information. The data and information which is gather with the
context that help to show the accuracy which is collected from the different
source are contain appropriate and reliable information which is valid and
show aspect that produce the context which is evidence based information
