Suma is found in Emerald Energy® Smart and Emerald Energy® Sport.
Suma, also called Brazilian ginseng, is the root of a rambling ground vine found in South America used traditionally as a medicine and tonic. Nicknamed “para todo,” which means “for all,” suma is an herbal medicine with adaptogenic qualities that serve to normalize and enhance body systems, increase resistance to stress, and boost overall functioning. It has been used for a variety of ailments with good efficacy, hence the name “para todo.”
One of the reason for suma’s myriad effects may be it’s ability to increase oxygenation and energy efficiency at the cellular level. Suma contains germanium, beta-ecdysterone, allantoin, and a group of novel phytochemical saponins called pfaffosides.
