Have you ever pondered why the wise men brought the gifts they did to the baby Jesus?

Gold, while sparkly and shiny is purty enough to stand alone on its own as currency. Myrrh is an amazing herb that boosts the immune system and would be expensive but desirable in a 15BC first-aid kit. Frankincense smells divine... kind of a patchouli/sandalwood/non-hippie masculine cologne for the ultimate Robin Hood. Sada gets whiffs every day because now it is a major component of her daily regime.

Also known as boswellia, the boswellic acid acts as an anti-tumor agent and makes tumor cells commit suicide (aka apoptosis). Nifty, huh? Amounts per day depend on the amount of boswellic acid in the formulation, so for now she gets 14 throughout the day. But they taste good and burps aren't too bad, either.
