100% Natural Rhodiola Rosea Extract Capsules | 60 Veg Caps | 500mg

Rhodiola Rosea is classified as an adaptogen - a non-toxic plant that helps protect the body from the effects of stress. Each vegetable capsule contains 500mg of 100% Natural Rhodiola Rosea Extract. It has a long history of use in traditional medicine to stimulate the nervous system, treat stress-induced fatigue and depression, enhance physical performance and work productivity. Adaptogens help the body adapt to stress, promoting resilience and supporting your ability to cope with various physical, mental, and environmental stressors.

Research shows Rhodiola alleviates symptoms of fatigue, anxiety and depression, and improves performance during stressful situations like at work or during physical activity. In one study, 100 people with chronic fatigue symptoms received 400mg daily for 8 weeks - improvements were observed after only 1 week and continued through the final week. Rhodiola works by normalising the release of stress hormones while simultaneously boosting energy metabolism via activation of ATP synthesis in mitochondria. It increases serotonin and dopamine levels while reducing cortisol.

Current research suggests rhodiola may be effective for improving symptoms of stress, fatigue, or depression when taken in doses ranging from 400-700mg daily. With these 500mg capsules, taking 1 capsule daily provides 500mg, which falls within the effective range. Some studies show lower doses (200-300mg) help boost athletic performance. The normal recommended range is 250-700mg daily, split into one or two equivalent doses. Start with 1 capsule daily and adjust as needed under healthcare practitioner guidance.

Rhodiola can show effects relatively quickly - one study showed improvements in fatigue after just 1 week of treatment. For stress and anxiety support, benefits typically manifest within the first few weeks of consistent use. Regarding safety: current research suggests rhodiola is safe and well tolerated with few serious side effects. However, you may be safer limiting use to shorter periods of 6-12 weeks, as long-term effects haven't been thoroughly studied. Take breaks between cycles for sustained effectiveness.

Rhodiola is generally safe, but mixing it with common anti-anxiety medication can cause health problems, including irregular heartbeat. Consult your healthcare practitioner before use if you're taking: anti-anxiety medications, antidepressants, blood pressure medications, diabetes medications, or immunosuppressants. The extracts are generally standardised to minimum 3.0% rosavins and 1.0% salidroside for effectiveness. If Rhodiola is the right herb for you, most people tolerate doses between 100-400mg daily. This 60-capsule bottle provides a 2-month supply at 1 capsule daily.
