As the story goes, three wise men brought gifts from their homeland to present to a newborn child that was to be king (I am talking about Jesus here folks). The gifts were gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
The gold makes sense. It would have been highly revered (heck, it still is!) and seen as an enormous gift fit for a king. Similarly, at that time, myrrh was a rare, highly prized perfume and incense that was thought to be equal in value to gold.
But the last one, the frankincense, is where it REALLY gets interesting.. Not only was it dangerous to harvest, due to the poisonous snakes that often lived in the branches of the trees it was harvested from, but its healing properties helped to improve everything from pain and infection to cancer and depression.
In fact, there is ample evidence to show that it’s just as effective, if not more effective, than the dangerous NSAIDs at reducing pain and inflammation. And a body of research has emerged that shows it can help with the battle against arthritis, cancer and even diabetes.
Those are some pretty bold claims, so let’s take a closer look to separate fact from trumped-up fiction.
