Rhodiola is an apoptogenic herb with a broad range of action, promoting mental and physical stamina, hormonal harmony, and immune support, especially in times of stress.
 
Traditionally Rhodiola has been used for centuries in Eastern Europe, Scandinavia and Asia as folk medicine to promote physical endurance, productivity and adaptogenic support to high altitudes.
 
Research has identified adaptogenic compounds in the roots, the most important ones being the rosavins - rosavin, rosin and rosarin - specific to the species Rhodiola rosea.
 
Rhodiola can provide positive support for several different neurotransmitters in the brain promoting mental acuity and memory, as well as supporting mood.
 
Research has indicated the many areas where Rhodiola can potentially be supportive: central nervous system, cardiovascular system, and endocrine system.
