The extract product type has a large market share, and essential oils are expected to be the fastest-growing segment in the market. North America has the highest share of the market, and the Asia-Pacific region holds the fastest growth in the Boswellia market.

MARKET DRIVERS

The wide application in the pharmaceutical industry is expected to drive the Boswellia market growth.

In India, the extract has been used for centuries to treat inflammatory conditions such as osteoarthritis and asthma. Boswellia acids are the beneficial compound present in the Boswellia extract, which helps to combat the inflammation and decrease the oxidation stress. An enzyme called Boswellia bars 5-lipoxygenase is engaged in the inflammation, and inflammatory proteins are termed cytokines. Generally, Boswellia supplements are taken in the form of capsules or tablets. Additionally, it is also available in the form of Boswellia serrata oil or Boswellia tea. One of the most used applications of Boswellia is for joint pain and stiffness, which are the common symptoms faced by individuals suffering from osteoarthritis of the joints. For a healthy inflammatory response, people generally use Boswellia and curcumin. However, there is no proper suggested standard dosage of the Boswellia. Scientists started using the distinct dosages of the Boswellia to find its health benefits. The increase in awareness about the Boswellia extract will fuel the growth of the market.

The surge in Boswellia's innovations by various companies boosted Boswellia's market growth and expansion during the forecast period. EuroPharma’s CuraMed Acute Pain Relief is an integration of the BCM-95 curcumin and BOS-10 Boswellia, which was proved to give output up to 10 times greater acetyl-11-keto-B-boswellic acid rather than the unstandardized form. The product has the emulsified matrix of black sesame extract oil in the form of a tiny and swallowable liquid gel. The black sesame seed oil has an anti-inflammatory property and has been used traditionally for ages in Ayurvedic medicine. Boswellia extract has been used for centuries to keep a healthy inflammation response without stomach irritation and assist in keeping a healthy body. The purest form of the Boswellia is obtained by the organic supercritical Co2 extraction technique and is the most powerful organic Boswellia. Such innovation of the Boswellia will fuel the growth of the Boswellia market in the coming years.

MARKET RESTRAINTS

Despite the projected growth of the Boswellia market, certain factors restrain its growth.

One such factor is the side effects associated with the usage of the Boswellia on the Liver, which will hinder the adoption of the Boswellia extract in its various medical applications. The dosage of the Boswellia is decided based on the percentage of the Boswellia acids, and its standard dosage includes 30-40 % Boswellia acid. A dose of 300-500 mg is recommended two to three times a day. It has been popularized as a pain reliever, so when it is integrated with additional compounds such as ibuprofen, aspirin results in harmful effects on the Liver. So, it is suggested that Boswellia not be integrated with other compounds. Certain studies suggest that Boswellia may help in the stabilization of sugar levels, which benefits people with endocrine ailments. Due to its ill effects on the organs of the body due to integration, it is not suggested to use medicine to control sugar levels. This hampers the sale and adoption of the product in various applications, thereby reducing the size of the market.
