What is Guggul?

Guggul is a small, thorny tree commonly found in India, particularly in arid climates like the regions of Rajasthan and Gujarat. The resin is obtained from the tree's exudates and then dried. The name Guggul is derived from the Sanskrit word Guggulu, which means "protects against disease." It is a relative of the African myrrh tree and is also referred to as Indian myrrh. Guggul resin has a less bitter aroma compared to myrrh from Africa and Arabia.
