No, we’re not talking about the blood of a mythical dragon! Dragon’s Blood is a deep red resin extracted from the Croton Lechleri tree, renowned for its powerful healing properties. Traditionally, Amazonian indigenous communities have utilized this resin for its medicinal properties, applying it topically to heal wounds, treat skin ulcers, and manage gastrointestinal issues like diarrhea and dysentery.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, Dragon's Blood, known as Xue Jie, is esteemed for its ability to invigorate blood circulation, alleviate pain, and promote tissue regeneration, making it valuable in treating blood stasis, trauma, and menstrual irregularities.

Modern research supports these uses, highlighting the resin's antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties, which contribute to its effectiveness in wound healing and overall health applications.

Our Commitment to Premium, Sustainably Sourced Dragon’s Blood Resin

At BioHax Wellness, we take great care in sourcing and producing our Dragon’s Blood resin, ensuring it is both ethically harvested and of the highest quality.

Sustainable Harvesting

We work closely with indigenous communities in South America, who wild-harvest the resin using eco-conscious methods. By following strict sustainability guidelines, we help preserve the health of the Croton lechleri trees and support the biodiversity of the Amazon rain forest.

Careful Extraction

The resin is collected through precise incisions in the bark of mature Croton lechleri trees, allowing the natural latex to flow without harming the tree. This gentle extraction process ensures that the trees remain healthy and continue regenerating, maintaining the long-term sustainability of this powerful botanical.

Uncompromising Quality

After harvesting, our Dragon’s Blood resin undergoes strict quality control in HACCP, GMP, and FDA-certified facilities. This ensures that every batch is pure, potent, and free from contaminants, delivering maximum benefits to our customers. At BioHax Wellness, we are dedicated to providing authentic, responsibly sourced Dragon’s Blood resin, staying true to our commitment to sustainability, purity, and wellness.

Potential Benefits of Dragon's Blood - Backed by Scientific Research 

Dragons blood is commonly used to stop bleeding, treat intestinal problems, travellers diarrhea and more interestingly, used in clinical studies to prove decreased levels of radiation when administered to mice due to its anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory properties.

Another recent scientific study has shown nearly 90% of dried sap (from Croton Lechleri) was found to have one of the most potent antioxidants, proanthocyanidin, also known as Pycnogenol®; also found in grape seed extract. The strong presence of this antioxidant activity is said to explain the effect of Sangre de Dragon not only on a broad range of DNA and RNA viruses but also on stomach cancer, Chron’s disease, colitis and other digestive disorders, by reducing inflammation in the intestinal mucosa. The high concentration of bioflavonoids proanthocyanidins in dragons blood adds to its impressive list of healing abilities to assist with eradicating intestinal parasites.

Origins of Dragons Blood

Sangre de Grado, meaning “blood of the dragon” in Spanish, has been revered for centuries for both its bark and resin. The earliest recorded use dates back to the 1600s, when Spanish explorer P. Bernabé Cobo documented its widespread use among indigenous tribes in Mexico, Peru, and Ecuador. These cultures traditionally applied the sap of the Croton lechleri tree for wound healing, stopping bleeding, and treating intestinal ailments—a practice still prevalent in South American and Traditional Chinese Medicine today.

Preparations made from Dragon’s Blood have since been incorporated into pharmaceutical and patented medicinal formulations, recognizing its potential for anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and wound-healing applications.

The Unique Dragon Tree

There are four distinct species of Dragon Trees, all characterized by their striking umbrella-shaped canopy. These trees can grow over 60 feet tall and 20 feet wide, making them a breathtaking sight in their native environments. The deep red sap serves as the tree’s natural healing agent, sealing wounds in its bark—a property mirrored in its traditional use on human skin.

Habitat & Conservation Status

Dragon Trees thrive in sun-drenched limestone cliffs and steep mountain ranges, typically at elevations of 1,300–1,700 meters. Standing between 5–15 meters tall, their populations are under increasing threat. Botanists estimate only about 200,000 trees remain in the wild, with numbers declining due to over-harvesting and habitat destruction. 

At BioHax Wellness, we are committed to ensuring the ethical and sustainable sourcing of Dragon’s Blood resin, supporting conservation efforts while delivering premium-quality natural products.

Phytochemistry of Dragon's Blood 

Dragon’s Blood earns its name from the deep red sap that oozes from the Croton lechleri tree when cut for harvesting, rather than the usual white or honey-coloured latex seen in other plants. This highly valued resin is renowned for its medicinal and rejuvenating properties.

The sap is packed with a rich variety of bioactive phytochemicals, including antioxidant phenols, alkaloids, antibacterial agents, lignans, antiviral compounds, and anti-inflammatory elements. These potent compounds help:

✅ Protect and restore skin cells
✅ Reduce redness and inflammation
✅ Promote wound healing and minimize swelling

One of the most notable components of Dragon’s Blood is proanthocyanidins, a group of powerful plant-based polyphenols. Extensive scientific research has demonstrated their ability to repair collagen in skin tissue, which is why Dragon’s Blood has gained immense popularity in skincare and anti-aging formulations. Its effectiveness in facial rejuvenation and wound healing has made it a sought-after ingredient in high-performance skincare products.

Key Chemical Components of Dragon's Blood

The primary active compounds found in Dragon’s Blood include:

• Flavonoids – Known for their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects

• Phenols – Offer antimicrobial and skin-protective properties

• Chromone ketones – Contribute to wound healing

• Saponins – Aid in cellular repair and immune defense

• Steroids & Terpenoids – Support anti-inflammatory and pain relief mechanisms

Traditional Uses in Chinese Medicine

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Dragon’s Blood is used to:

✅ Treat chronic colitis and digestive issues
✅ Enhance blood circulation and reduce blood stagnation
✅ Support recovery from serious injuries and relieve pain

With its scientifically-backed properties and long history of traditional use, Dragon’s Blood continues to be a highly respected botanical in both modern wellness and ancient healing practices.
