Solaray True Herbs Suma delivers a standardized 500 mg dose of Suma root (Pfaffia / Hebanthe species) in each vegetarian capsule. Suma, also known in traditional Amazonian herbal systems as “para toda” (“for everything”), is marketed as a general botanical tonic. In this formula, Solaray includes Suma root along with minimal excipients for purity: vegetable cellulose capsule, rice bran extract, and silica.
Suma naturally contains compounds such as beta‑ecdysone, saponins, and plant sterols. The formula is crafted to support daily use as an adaptogenic botanical.

Clinical Research Highlights
-
There are no well‑controlled human clinical trials specifically validating Suma’s effects in target populations.
-
Some preclinical and in vitro investigations suggest that components of Suma (e.g. pfaffic acid derivatives, saponins) may exhibit antioxidant, anti‑inflammatory, or adaptogen‑like actions.
-
A review of herbal performance agents mentions Suma (under “ecdysterone” class) in a list of botanicals proposed to influence physical performance—but this is speculative and not clinical evidence.
-
Traditional and folk use in South America includes uses for vitality, stress resilience, and general tonic support.
