Rhodiola 60 Capsules

Rhodiola is a tough little plant from some of the harshest places on earth. It grows in the Arctic and the high mountains of Siberia, Scandinavia, Iceland and the Alps, where it clings to rocky cliffs and survives bitter cold, thin air and long, dark winters. Its root gives off a soft scent of roses when it's cut, which gave it the names Rosenroot and Golden Root. Around 2,000 years ago, the Greek physician Dioscorides recorded it as rhodia riza, "rose root". The Vikings are said to have taken it for strength and endurance on their long voyages. In Siberia, it was so treasured that families traditionally gave a bouquet of the roots to newly married couples. In the 20th century, Soviet scientists studied Rhodiola closely as an adaptogen, a plant that helps the body adapt to stress, and investigated it for athletes, soldiers and even cosmonauts. Today it's one of the best-researched adaptogens in the world. Each capsule contains 500mg of pure, powdered Rhodiola rosea root, with nothing added.
