Purchase a one pound package of Raintree Nutrition's mulungu bark powder (Erythrina mulungu) which is rich in the naturally occurring plant chemicals that this plant is regarded for. The chemicals in mulungu have been studied extensively; they have been found to comprise large amounts of novel flavonoids, triterpenes, and alkaloids. Much research has been performed on Erythrina alkaloids in the last decade, as they represent a group of very active chemicals which are shared among many different Erythrina species.* These alkaloids have been documented with various biological actions.* Thus far, mulungu has been documented to contain 20 of these alkaloids. Raintree's mulungu has been sustainably wild-harvested in the Brazilian Amazon and has been milled into a fine powder which is suitable to stuff into capsules or to prepare your own teas, tinctures or extracts.
