  1. Brazilian Suma Ginseng Suma is known to help relieve colds, flus and stress related illnesses ... What is it? Suma is a term used for the root of a South American vine (Pfaffia paniculata) that has been traditionally used to support the body during stressful times, as an adrenal and nervous system tonic. It is an adrenal adaptogen that helps the body to deal with stress and protects against the development of stress- related illness. Suma does this by modulating the immune system, which is often depleted by stress. It also supports blood production and maintains the blood's oxygen carrying capacity, helping to prevent anemia and fatigue. Suma is alternatively called Brazilian ginseng because of its excellent adaptogenic effects similar to other ginsengs, although it is not a member of the true Panax ginseng family. What does it do? Suma has been studied for its ability to increase sexual functioning and physical endurance. These effects may be due to Suma's support of testosterone production in the adrenal gland, the hormone responsible for libido and muscle growth. Natural health practitioners often recommend Suma for conditions like anemia, arthritis, cancer, impotence, menopausal complaints, Epstein-Barr virus and low immune functioning. Recent research in animals has begun to examine Suma for potential anti-cancer properties as well, but human trials are still required. Nutritional Components In addition to its adaptogenic and immune modulating effects, Suma also contains a number of different nutrients. It contains 19 different amino acids, as well as electrolytes and trace minerals including: iron, magnesium, phosporous, potassium, calcium, cobalt, manganese, silica, zinc, selenium, and high levels of germanium. It also contains vitamins: A, thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), E, K, and panthothenic acid (B5). How can I take Suma? Suma can be purchased as raw herb, liquid extract or tincture and encapsulated herb. It can be found in combinations for menopausal support, sexual functioning, fatigue and athletic performance. There has not been sufficient research to recommend a dosage, although most preparations are taken at around 500mg of raw herb twice daily. Important Information Suma has not been studied in pregnancy and lactation. It may increase the effect of sedative and anti-anxiety medication.
