Sutherlandia frutescens is regarded as one of the most profound and multi-purpose of the traditional medicinal plants in Southern Africa. Apart from a long and varied history of traditional use for a variety of health conditions, Sutherlandia is also one of the most studied medicinal herbs in South Africa. Modern research tends to support its anti-oxidant and health giving properties.
Sutherlandia has long been used as a supportive treatment in Cancer, hence one of its common names - Cancer Bush or Kankerbos. In Tswana it is called Phetola which means "it changes", indicating that the plant changes the course of many illnesses towards a favorable outcome. The North-Sotho name of Lerumo-Lamadi means "the spear for the blood" describing Sutherlandia's function as a blood purifier.
One of the primary benefits of Sutherlandia is that it assists the body to mobilise its own resources to deal with diverse physical and mental stresses. Research indicates that it functions as an adaptogen, as well as an immune stimulant (with similar properties and biochemistry to that of the well known Chinese herb Astragalus membranaceus).
