A master’s thesis at the College of Pharmacy discusses the effect of frankincense in reducing excess uric acid

A master’s thesis at the College of Pharmacy at the University of Basrah discussed (study of the anti-uric acid effect of Boswellia Carterii extract in rat models of hyperuricemia caused by potassium oxonate)
Researcher Khairallah Muhammad’s letter indicated that uric acid is produced primarily in the liver, intestines, and lining of blood vessels as a byproduct of external and internal purines, and uric acid contains antioxidant properties like 
Vitamin C, due to its high content in humans, is one of the most important antioxidants, and more than 90% of hyperuricemia results from insufficient excretion of uric acid in the urine. It is considered a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, and gout.
The letter concluded that uric acid-suppressing drugs fail to treat 25 to 50% of patients suffering from prostatitis due to the inability to return to treatment with the recommended doses, or intolerance of the effect.
Undesirable secondary, or contraindications to its use.
Therefore, the Boswellia Carterii tree, which is a tree belonging to the Borseriaceae family, is found in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Yemen, and the eastern Mediterranean countries, which produces frankincense. It turns out that it has properties
Anti-inflammatory, liver-protective, anti-bacterial, and anti-fungal. It also has cardioprotective and antioxidant activities.
The thesis aimed to study the anti-inflammatory effects of increased uric acid
Blood test for frankincense in rat models of hyperuric acid in the blood induced by potassium exonate. This research evaluates the effect of frankincense on uric acid in the blood and urine.
The study proved that frankincense powder significantly reduced uric acid by increasing uric acid excretion in the urine and good inhibition of the xanthine oxidase enzyme in the blood, according to the results of the current study.
