Osteoarthritis of the hands: a clinical trial tests the turmeric-boswellia combination

09/30/2026

Osteoarthritis of the hands can make many everyday tasks difficult. Whilst studies on plant extracts have mainly focused on the knee, a new clinical trial is investigating the potential effects of the turmeric-boswellia combination on osteoarthritis of the hands.

📌︎ Key takeaways
  • ✓ A clinical study evaluated a combination of turmeric and boswellia in 162 people with symptomatic osteoarthritis of the hands.
  • ✓After three months, the reduction in self-reported pain was greater with the study formula than with the placebo.
  • ✓The trial focused on symptoms and did not assess any changes to the cartilage or the disease itself.
  • ✓There are various turmeric and boswellia-based supplement formulations available.
  • ✓Dietary supplements are not a substitute for medical management of osteoarthritis.
