Wildegansie - Sutherlandia frutescens

[maxzar100]

I just ordered about an ounce of Sutherlandia Frutescens from a vendor. Anyone have any experience with this plant. Its not only said to be extremely anti-carcinogenic but good for diabetes and a reliever for "extreme" pain. Natives were said to have smoked it as a pain reliever and for its sedative and mood enhancing effects, as a cannabis substitute.


Please share your thoughts, suggestions, or experiences.

haha nice one

i would pay to see your face when you taste it - it puts calea to shame in terms of bitterness.

i once had flu - i took a cup of sutherlandia tea - within 30 mins all symptoms were gone and i really felt fine - i never had any more flu after that (somehow ??? i know flu is a virus - but somehow it worked)

workers smoke it (gaba) on plantations when they cant get weed - to get grilled in a drunk way - apparently (got it in my cupboard - i think i tried but the smoke was quite bitter)

apparently aids and cancer patients lives are greatly extended from using it - one person i know of thru a friend had 3 months to live - 5 years later - they have never felt better.

its a real wonder herb and id love to hear more of your experience with it.
for me - i recon id gelcap it or an extraction of it.

perhaps it would be a good Changa additive? I guess I prob will do an extraction. I had read that it is more bitter then calea. I don't think I ever wish to experience that same bitterness again.

Do you think that Isopropyl would be sufficient enough to make a crude extraction of the alkaloids?

Much thanks my friend,
