Rhodiola rosea is a remarkable plant that can support your mental and physical health.

Centuries ago, the inhabitants of mountainous areas and sea cliffs discovered the extraordinary potential of mountain rhodiola, otherwise known as ‘golden root’ or ‘Arctic root’. The plant was a symbol of strength, endurance and vitality. Traditionally, it has been used to support, among other things, the health of the nervous system, longevity, eliminate the feeling of fatigue and improve work efficiency. Rhodiola rosea has been noted to have adaptogenic properties, i.e. to help the body counteract the adverse effects of stress ^[1]. Adaptogens have a beneficial effect on human health not only by offsetting the effects of mental stress, but also by reducing the consequences of external factors such as environmental pollution, smog, stimulants, and a highly processed diet. Rhodiola rosea helps to restore balance and achieve homeostasis. 

A body that is better able to cope with the effects of stress, regenerates more effectively and rests more efficiently ^[2]. The beneficial effects of this plant are due to its bioactive constituents, of which rosavins and salidrosides are particularly noteworthy. Rhodiola rosea can be used to alleviate stress-related symptoms such as fatigue, exhaustion and general feelings of weakness ^[1,3]. Individuals who supplement with rhodiola rosea may experience improvements in fatigue, mental performance, greater mood stability, improved concentration and increased motivation to learn ^[4]. Use of the extract can improve physical work capacity and increase endurance to physical stress. An increase in training performance has been observed in strength-trained individuals given the extract, and better adaptation to fatigue has been observed in aerobic exercisers ^[5]. It has also been noted that rhodiola rosea can support psychomotor performance, which is beneficial not only in efforts that require rapid decision-making, but also manual work requiring precision, accuracy and dynamic action ^[5].
