Frankincense extract (Boswellia serrata; 65% boswellic acids), coating agent: hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (capsule shell), anti-caking agent: calcium carbonate.
It is not the weight of the capsule that matters – but the boswellic acid content. Boswellia capsules from Natura Nova provide 400 mg of Boswellia serrata extract per capsule, standardised to 65% boswellic acids – equivalent to 260 mg of boswellic acids per capsule. The vegan formula contains no colourings, preservatives, sweeteners or flavourings.
Boswellia serrata – known in Europe as frankincense – is a tree from the dry mountain forests of India, whose resin has been used for thousands of years in traditional plant knowledge in India and the Middle East. The characteristic resin is rich in boswellic acids, a group of triterpenic acids that have been intensively studied in nutritional science for decades. As an incense material and component of traditional plant preparations, frankincense has been part of various cultures since antiquity.
For Natura Nova Boswellia capsules, only standardised Boswellia serrata resin extract from India is used – with a clearly defined boswellic acid content of 65%. Production takes place in a GMP-certified facility. Every batch is laboratory tested for purity, identity and microbiological parameters. The HPMC capsule shell is fully vegan.
Why standardisation matters when choosing a frankincense extract – and what current research on Boswellia serrata reveals – we explain in our in-depth article on frankincense.

Therefore, we deliberately limit ourselves to legally permissible and factually verifiable information.
We want to present our products in a way that is legally permissible and professionally sound for dietary supplements. This means: no exaggerated promises, no misleading statements, and no wording that gives the impression of a cure. Instead, we focus on transparent information about composition, quality, and product concept.
Yes. According to the BLV (Federal Food Safety and Veterinary Office) regulations, these requirements also apply to health-related statements on linked websites if they are directly related to the product offered. Therefore, we deliberately formulate further information in a restrained and legally compliant manner.
