Sutherlandia frutescens is regarded as the most profound and multi-purpose of the medicinal plants in Southern Africa. Because of its efficacy as a safe tonic for diverse health conditions it has enjoyed a long history of use by all cultures in Southern Africa.
Sutherlandia powerfully assists the body to mobilize its own resources to cope with diverse physical and mental stresses, and it should therefore be more correctly known as an adaptogenic tonic.
The traditional Tswana name Phetola alludes to this: Phetola means it changes, meaning that the plant changes the course of many illness into a favorable outcome. (Similar to the European concept of an alterative). The North Sotho name Lerumo-lamadi means the spear for the blood meaning that Sutherlandia is a powerful blood-purifier or all-purpose tonic.

currently recognised Sutherlandia species, all of which are confined to Southern Africa. The species are difficult to distinguish because they often grade into each other and some botanists consider them to be merely different forms of a single large and variable species. Three of the species, Sutherlandia frutescens, S. microphylla and S. tomentosa have overlapping distributions in the Western Cape Province and are probably used interchangeably in this area as kankerbos.
