Can Take Boswellia Extract, Cucumin, Ashwagandha Liquid Extract With Diet For Chronic Inflammation?

I've added Boswellia Extract tab, Cucumin tab, Ashwagandha Liquid Extract and Zinc tab to my diet for chronic inflammation. I would like to know if I should take together, with or without food. I cannot take N'saids. I've already had 4 cortisone injections in my L-4 spine within 6 wks with no success after several weeks. I'm 75 yrs. Thanks Jean

ello,

I have studied your case.

Yes you can take these ayurvedic medication,you can take them after food.

You may need to do blood test.
I advise blood test like ANA, RA factor, ACCP, ESR, complete blood count, HLA B27, thyroid profile.

You may consult physiotherapist for further guidance. He may start TENS, or ultrasound which is helpful in your case.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care.
