FILISA - Sutherlandia Frutescens

FILISA™ capsules contain Sutherlandia Frutescens, a bushy plant with vibrant red flowers that grows in Southern Africa. Sutherlandia has a long history of traditional use as an adaptogen and may help to improve the mood, easing anxiety and stress, and providing a sense of calmness and wellbeing. It is rich in GABA, a neurotransmitter naturally produced by the body and known as the ‘peacemaking’ chemical. Sutherlandia has significant anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties and contains naturally occurring L-Canavanine and Pinitol.

  • Depression, stress & anxiety
  • Candida & fungal infections
  • Menopause
  • PMT
  • Chronic Fatigue ( ME / CFS)
  • Post viral syndrome
  • Cystitis & other bacterial infections

We have called our Sutherlandia Frutescens "Filisa", which, in Zulu, means 'to make better'. However, the ancient Zulu name for this plant is 'Insiswa', which translates as "the one which dispels the darkness". The wives of slain Zulu warriors used to take Sutherlandia to ease their grief, and the warriors themselves used it to take the war out of them.
