Myrrh extracts (gugulipids) have an extensive use in traditional medicine.
They have been shown to promote:
- Normal cholesterol and triglyceride levels;
- An active thyroid function;
- A healthy inflammatory response-through potent inhibition of NF-κB;
- Healthy joints;
- A clean, healthy skin;
According to Rudolf Steiner myrrh is useful in supporting all processes involved n the "Will" system.
Caution: Myrrh supplements may significantly lower the bioavailability of popranolol and diltiazem (heart and blood pressure medicines). Discuss with your health care provider if you are taking either of these medications.
