What is dragon’s blood?
This term is used to describe the bright red sap which is excreted by a few tropical and subtropical trees. The plant resin has been used for thousands of years for distinct purposes. There are records of its use among the ancient Greeks and Romans and in India, China, and the Middle East. It is widely used in the cosmetic industry for it's tissue regeneration qualities. 
 
Croton lechleri 
 
Bernabé Cobo was a Spanish missionary and author alive during the 1600’s. He recorded its widespread use among the indigenous people in Mexico, Ecuador, and Peru for various ailments (2). Even there today, it continues to be used as a form of liquid bandage, for soothing insect bites, as well as ingested for GI disorders like diarrhea.
 
It tests out for having shockingly high antioxidant activity. It’s also the one most hailed for medicinal advantages and we’re not just talking magic potions and lotions used by tribes.
 
Just a single drop of dragon’s blood is equivalent to 2 lbs of raw kale or 3 apples worth of antioxidants.
That’s not referencing it after laboratory refinement, as no tinkering was involved. Researchers took 100 grams of the same natural substance which oozes out of the tree and tested using ORAC. With a score of 2,897,110, it is the highest antioxidant food in the world and its closest competitors are left in the dust as judged by their ORAC values:
Sumac bran – 312,400
Ground Cloves – 290,283
Dried amla berries – 261,500
 
The C. lechleri tree sap is at least 800% more than the three runner-ups!
