Nobody enjoys needless pain it's not like you're getting any benefit from aching joints. Put a stop to it today by popping a simple pill.

Arthritis is a common condition, attests the National Health Service (NHS), that causes pain and inflammation in a joint.

Apparently, the disease affects "more than 10 million people" in the UK.

The consumption of a natural remedy - only 28p could help to reduce symptoms of arthritis.

These are said to block the production of inflammatory chemicals, such as "TNF-alpha", making them useful to ease joint pain.

The Cellular and Molecular Biology Division, in India, conducted a placebo- controlled study into the effects of Boswellia on joint pain.

The study enrolled 75 volunteers who had been diagnosed with osteoarthritis - a type of arthritis.

Each participant was given either 100mg or 250mg of Boswellia extract, or a daily placebo.

The trail went on for three months, and the participants were evaluated for pain and physical functions at different intervals.

On day 0, day seven, day 30, day 60, and day 90, the participants' levels of pain were documented.

In addition to this, the cartilage degrading enzyme, matrix metalloproteinase-3, was evaluated in patients' synovial fluids.

At the end of the study, the researchers noted that both doses of Boswellia extract (100mg or 250mg) showed "clinically and statistically significant improvements in pain scores and physical function scores".

The higher dosage of Boswellia extract saw a "significant improvement in pain score and functional ability" in seven days after starting treatment.

In line with these findings, the 250mg of Boswellia extract also showed a reduction in synovial fluid matrix metalloproteinase-3 in seven days.

Natures Way Boswellia Extract provides 307mg in each supplement pill, which suggests it would be an effective pain reliever.

The active ingredient is Boswellia serrata Tree Resin, which is native to India, North Africa and the Middle East.

The resin is obtained by peeling away strips of bark and then harvesting the gum that oozes out to harden over the wound.

This isn't a new development, in fact it's been used in Chinese medicine for years.

Mr Wakeman added: "[Boswellia] has the added benefit of low side effects.

"For those patients seeking an alternative to paracetamol and ibuprofen for relief of joint pain especially, it is worth considering Boswellia.
