Boswellic acids and liver damage edit

What is the basis of the statement "Caution is advised when using boswellic acids as dietary supplements, given the link between large doses of Boswellia extract and liver damage?" A recent article indicates in fact boswellic acids may have a hepatoprotective effect. Y J, Kamath JV, Asad M.,Effect of hexane extract of Boswellia serrata oleo-gum resin on chemically induced liver damage. Pak J Pharm Sci. 2006 Apr;19(2):129-33.

I have removed the statement, as it pretty much constitutes medical advice, and cited the Pak J Pharm Sci study. Fvasconcellos 20:54, 27 January 2007 (UTC)Reply


Reference #3 should be pg 105 instead of 113 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Marchchem (talkcontribs) 18:55, 5 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Structure edit

Acetyl-alpha-boswellic acid and acetyl-beta-boswellic acid, C32H50O4, replace the hydroxyl group with an acetyl group - that should be "replace the hydroxyl group with an acetoxyl group" or "replace the hydrogen of the hydroxyl group with an acetyl group" 2607:FB91:803:8310:E9FD:434C:981C:F0FA (talk) 18:12, 19 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
