Just wondering if anyone knows of any other supplier of Cryptolepis sanguinolenta? I am currently going through W.E. and they have increased their shipping costs to Canada exponentially.

I did see one other. I think it was green dragon, or something like that. The website, to me, looked unprofessional and therefore, I wasn't sure about trusting the source.

I think you mean this website:

http://greendragonbotanicals.com/products/medicines/japanese-knotweed.html

I couldn't find crypto on that one..

Try this place - http://www.woodlandessence.com/herbal.htm

You could also try Star West Botanicals in CA

They check their herbs for heavy metals et al, are organic, etc.

BEst wishes, CI ps don't know specifically that they have cryptolepis but they do definitely have a lot of hard-to-find herbs, as well as the standards. Worth a try.

Woodland Essence

Thanks, sparkle, but that's the one that has increased shipping costs to 4 times higher than they were..

CI, it seems they don't carry it.

I'm guessing Woodland Essence has a monopoly on this one.

Posted by sparkle7 (Member # 10397) on :

Yes, I think it's a bit hard to come by since they get it from Africa. Not many places have it.

ps - Maybe try calling - Bear Creek Herbs (505) 388-5035
or

Not sure it's the same company... Got it from Planet Thrive website.

Thanks, jms, but they charge almost $35 for shipping to Canada. Even more than Woodland Essence.. I do appreciate the help, though.

I will try Bear Creek Herbs next..

Thanks to everyone!
