Herb Pharm Dragon's Blood Concentrated Herbal Extract - 1 Fl Oz

Herb Pharm Dragon's Blood Concentrated Herbal Extract — 1 fl oz

Dragon's Blood is the dark red latex resin tapped from the bark of Croton lechleri trees in the Amazon rainforest — not to be confused with other plants sharing the same common name. Croton lechleri latex contains a complex of proanthocyanidins collectively known as SP-303 (also called crofelemer), as well as the alkaloid taspine and several flavonoids. Taspine has been the subject of wound-healing research — it stimulates fibroblast migration, the process by which connective tissue cells move to repair damaged tissue. SP-303/crofelemer is the active ingredient in Mytesi, an FDA-approved drug for HIV-associated diarrhea; it works by blocking chloride ion channels in intestinal epithelial cells, reducing fluid secretion and normalizing stool consistency. The proanthocyanidin fraction also inhibits NF-κB-mediated inflammatory signaling in gut mucosa. Herb Pharm wildcrafts the resin sustainably — no tree felling required, as the latex is harvested by tapping, similar to rubber collection.

Key Benefits

• Taspine (Wound-Healing Alkaloid): Stimulates fibroblast migration — the cellular process underlying tissue repair and wound closure
• SP-303/Proanthocyanidins: Same compound class as in FDA-approved Mytesi — supports normal gut secretory function and intestinal lining integrity
• GI Anti-Inflammatory: Proanthocyanidins inhibit NF-κB signaling in gut mucosa — reduces inflammatory tone in the digestive tract
• Antioxidant Protection: High polyphenol content scavenges free radicals and supports cellular health
• Sustainably Wildcrafted: Resin harvested by tapping without tree felling — responsible sourcing from wild Amazonian Croton lechleri
• Concentrated Liquid Extract: Rapid absorption compared to capsule or tablet forms

How to Use

Shake well before use. Take 20–30 drops in water, juice, or tea, twice daily or as directed by a healthcare practitioner. Not for use during pregnancy. Consult a healthcare practitioner if you have a medical condition or take medications.
