About: Cryptolepis is a climbing shrub with dancing star-like yellow blossoms that grows in savannah forests in parts of Africa, Asia and Indonesia. Our source is presently from Ghana. The bright, golden roots are collected from the wild in Ghana for use as a beautiful dye source, as well as supportive root tonic for humans. Cryptolepis root contains Neocryptolepine as the main bioactive compound along with Biscryptolepine, a secondary component.
In traditional African ways, the alkaloid rich roots have been used for generations both internally and topically. Presently, Cryptolepis has made its way to North America where its popularity is well warranted. We are currently working with a team in Ghana who are beginning to farm this important herb, so that it will be available for generations to come!
We are very grateful to be able to offer this wonderful herb to you, thanks to the Ghanian people who grow or wildcraft this beauty!
