It's not arthritis. It's Knee Synovitis.
Knee Synovitis is swelling of the thin lining wrapped around your knee. The worn cushion on your X-ray has no nerves. It can't feel pain. The swollen lining feels every ache.
And that inflamed lining contributes to a self-feeding cycle of pain and joint deterioration.
Yet most women are told it's "arthritis" or "bone-on-bone" and sent home with painkillers and injections.
The quickest way to tell? How your knee FEELS.
If the first one is you, there’s a reason nothing you’ve tried has worked.
Lining swells up1
Cushion gets eaten away2
Swelling hits harder3
While the lining is swollen, it releases enzymes that eat away at your cushion. Bits break loose, your knee treats them as a threat, and the lining swells even harder.
This is the Swelling Loop.
Every time it goes round, your knee gets a little worse. That's why it doesn't just hurt. It gets worse every year.
👉 That's why painkillers, injections and joint tablets often fail. Painkillers dulled the loop. Injections paused it. Joint tablets tried to rebuild what it kept eating. None of them calmed the swollen lining, so as soon as they wore off, the loop carried on.
So if nothing has lasted, that's not on you.
Boswellia is frankincense, the golden resin the Wise Men carried to Bethlehem. Long before painkillers, it was what people reached for when their joints were stiff and swollen. Now scientists know why: it calms the swollen lining and blocks the enzymes that eat your cushion. It breaks the Swelling Loop at both ends.
But here's what most people never find out. Boswellia isn't one thing. Extracts vary enormously in strength, so two bottles that both say "Boswellia" can work completely differently. A study only proves what that extract did.
If you've tried Boswellia before and felt nothing, that's probably why.
VYQ Boswellia uses Aflapin®, the exact extract from that study, at the exact daily amount.
“Within the first week, my knee was far less puffy. Wish I'd found these sooner.”
Susan, 66 · Leicester
“Honestly, I’d given up. Gels, ibuprofen, two cortisone jabs, and none of it lasted. I’d stopped going into town with my sister because I dreaded the walk back to the car. About three weeks into these, we did the whole market and I didn’t think about my knee once. She noticed before I did!”
“Been on the NHS waiting list for a new knee for over two years. The pain was waking me three or four times a night and I could only lie one way. I’m still on the list, but most nights now I sleep right through. Haven’t rung the hospital to chase it in months.”
“I’m 71 and I’d started feeling properly old. Bramble and I used to walk for miles, then it was down to the corner shop and back. We’re doing the big loop round the park again now. My daughter rang last week and said ‘you sound like yourself again, Mum.’ Hadn’t realised how much I’d let go.”

Four years on co-codamol. It took the edge off, but I spent every afternoon half asleep in the chair. Six weeks on these and I barely reach for it. My husband says he's got his wife back, not just her knee.
Maureen · Doncaster · 3 months in
I'd given the allotment to my neighbour because I couldn't kneel at the beds any more. This spring I planted every row of potatoes myself. Knelt, dug, stood up. No stool, no help.
Linda · Stockport · 4 months in
At my last check-up the swelling on my right knee was visibly down, and he wanted to know what I was doing differently. I showed him the box. He wrote it down.

I'd already wasted money on a cheap Boswellia and nearly didn't bother. Ordered the bundle purely because of the guarantee. Never needed it. Walked the whole of the York city walls on holiday in August.
Jean · Harrogate · 4 months in
She'd stopped coming to our granddaughter's swimming lessons because of the poolside steps. Ordered these without telling her. Last Saturday she was down at the edge cheering louder than any of the mums.
Graham · Bolton · bought for his wife
Honestly, the first fortnight I noticed nothing and nearly sent it back. Around week four the puffiness by teatime just stopped turning up. Glad I gave it the full three months.

Questions
VYQ Boswellia is a single-ingredient food supplement, with nothing else added. If you take any regular medication, especially blood thinners, have a quick word with your pharmacist before you start. It takes two minutes and they'll be glad you asked.
Most Boswellia is little more than ground-up tree gum, and research on one extract doesn't carry over to another. VYQ uses Aflapin®, the exact extract from the published knee study, at the exact daily dose people took. If the one you tried did nothing, it's very likely it simply wasn't this.
In the study, some people noticed less pain and easier movement in as little as five days. For most women it builds over the first few weeks, and the loop has properly settled by months two and three. That's why the guarantee runs a full 90 days.
Two capsules together give you the daily amount used in the study. Take both with breakfast, every day. Stopping and starting lets the loop start turning again.
You can, but most women find they don't need them. Glucosamine works on the cushion, not the lining, and turmeric works on a different pathway. VYQ is made to do the job on its own.
Many women take it for the knee that hasn't been done. If you've had recent surgery or are on post-operative medication, check with your surgeon or pharmacist first.
Then you don't pay. Email support@shopvyq.com within 90 days, send it back, even the empty bottles, and we'll refund you in full.
We dispatch within 24–48 hours, and orders arrive in 5–11 working days with tracking across the UK.
