DRAGON BLOOD ! living dressing SANGRE DE DRAGO 30 ml

The botanical name of Sangre de drago in Latin is Croton lechleri dragonensis.
Sangre de Drago is a tree found in the (flooded) Amazon area, primarily in Peru.

The height of this tree can reach up to 20 meters. The sangre de drago belongs to a species of so-called "primary trees," or "pioneer trees." The name has its origin in the fact that it is always the first to recover after the destruction of the Amazon rainforest.

It owes this ability to the incredible regenerative abilities of its sap. This fact alone indicates that the resin (sap) has a great deal of properties beneficial to the human body.

The bark of the Sangre de drago tree is characterized by its gray bark. The resin is obtained by incising this bark. The sap (resin) has a dark red, very intense color resembling blood. This is where the name comes from, which in Polish means Dragon's Blood.

In the Amazon, it is widely used in folk medicine for wounds, bites or burns.

On the other hand, very thorough compositional analyses conducted in many research centers have shown that the resin contains more than forty substances, such as alkaloids and, above all, taspin. Taspin is crucial, as it determines the anti-inflammatory effect, and as a living dressing for wounds and ulcers.

As such, it is used in skin diseases, including ringworm and herpes, among others.

Another insanely important alkaloid that the resin contains is dimethylcedrusin. It has anti-inflammatory and regenerative effects .

In addition, very important components are protective polyphenols and proanthocyanidins with super-powerful antioxidant activity.

Dragon's blood also contains ritenol, which contains molecules called diterpenes.

They are characterized by very strong anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects.
