32 www.DesertMessenger.com January 16, 2019 "We may encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated." ~ Maya Angelou Frankincense - Ancient yet modern by Herbmama Some consider Frankincense the "King" of the essential oils and believe it's the most power- ful essential oil in the world! Sometimes it's referred to as olibanum. A variety of types are found in different places all over the planet. The resin, from which the oil is made, comes from many different trees in the genus of Boswellia, which are grown in Somalia. The Boswellia carterii 33 or the Boswellia frerena or Boswellia serrate or Boswellia papyrifera or the Bo- swellia sacara trees, that's a lot!!! It is the same oil given by the 3 wise men at Christ's birth and has been revered for centuries as useful in meditation because of its calming effect. It's used widely by the churches and some believe this oil can increase intuition & spiritual connections. Frankincense can help relieve chronic stress, anxiety, reduce pain, many types of infl ammation in the joints & skin, boost the immune system & even fi ght cancer. It's an antiseptic. It can help eliminate viruses & bac- teria from your environment. It's great in oral hygiene as you can make your town toothpaste mixing the oil with baking soda. This oil can also be benefi cial for mental health issues. Frankincense is great for skin issues like acne, age spots, sun spots and its anti-aging because it lifts & tightens the skin. When used topically be sure to mix with a carrier oil or a butter. Do NOT ingest! It's benefi cial to all cells of the human body. It can relieve digestive distress, IBS, PMS, it helps to speed up digestion of food similar to enzyme activity. A 2012 study found a chemical compound within this fabulous & ancient oil called AKBA and it succeeded in killing cancer cells that became resis- tant to chemotherapy. Now isn't that interesting! So if you incorporate es- sential oils in your everyday life, why not add this to your regiment? This information is not meant to treat, cure or diagnose any type of illness or disease.
