Hebanthe erianthos, also known as suma or Brazilian ginseng, is a plant in the Amaranthaceae family. It is a rambling ground vine found in South America and has been used as a traditional medicine and tonic for generations by indigenous peoples in the Amazon region. Its root, nicknamed "para tudo" or "for everything" in Brazil, has been used for a variety of health purposes, including as a general tonic, energy and sexual tonic, calming agent, and to treat ulcers. The root contains phytochemicals such as saponins, pfaffic acid, beta-ecdysterone, glycosides, and nortriterpenes.
