Description
Ortho Molecular Cryptolepis
Immune Health
Cryptolepis sanguinolenta is a plant found traditionally in Ghana and other regions of Africa. It helps maintain normal inflammatory balance and microbial balance and provides antioxidant support for those with high spirochete load.
Spirochetes are bacteria that are usually spread by tick bites, and they are often accompanied by other associated microbes that can make recovery especially challenging. Cryptolepis and its main alkaloid, cryptolepine, have shown microbial balancing activity for inhibiting unwanted bacterial organisms. Furthermore, cryptolepine has demonstrated potent activity against spirochetes. In another study, Cryptolepis showed strong activity against both growing and non-growing stationary phase spirochetes.
Key Benefits and Features:
- Supports the Body's Defense Against Immune Challenges
- Promotes Healthy Microbial Balance and Spirochete Load
- Helps Maintain Normal Inflammatory Balance
- Often Used in Conjunction with Cat's Claw, Japanese Knotweed, Andrographis, and Sweet Wormwood
- Provides Antioxidant Support

Microbial Balance and Spirochete Load
Cryptolepis root has many traditional applications and has been variously used as an herb to support the immune system against parasites and to maintain microbial and inflammatory balance. Its main constituents are alkaloids, tannins, and flavones.
Cryptolepis and its main alkaloid, cryptolepine, have shown microbial balancing activity for inhibiting unwanted bacterial organisms. Furthermore, cryptolepine has demonstrated potent activity against spirochetes. In another study, Cryptolepis showed strong activity against both growing and non-growing stationary phase spirochetes.
