Dragon's Blood is the red, wine- or blood-colored sap of the Dragon's Blood Tree (Croton lecheri). It has been used by Amazonian Indians for centuries for its antiviral, antibacterial, antimicrobial, hemostatic and antifungal properties.

Sacs are taken from a tree only twice in its life. The first time when the tree is about 10 years old. The trunk is cut and the sap is caught in buckets. A small amount is taken so that the tree can easily recover - of course, this is done in the dry season. When a tree's life comes to an end, its sap is collected again in about 15 years.
Traditional use
Many Amazonian healers use this juice to help heal wounds, ulcers, bleeding, colic, tumors. Also for injections, pain relief and digestive problems such as diarrhea and internal ulcers.
A small drop of Dragon's Blood will help as first aid for insect bites, cuts or burns, stimulating wound healing and new collagen formation.
It also has antioxidant properties, which is why it is used in anti-aging skin creams.
Like most other saps, can be used for smoking by burning on a charcoal tablet. It has a distinctive, strong, herbal aroma.
