About: Rhodiola (Rhodiola rosea) tincture contains dry Rhodiola roots organically grown on a small family farm in Kenai, Alaska. A renowned adaptogenic herb, with centuries of traditional use in Russia, Scandinavia and other Nordic regions, Rhodiola has become very popular in recent years to support energy, endurance, stamina, focus, mood and adrenal health. Adaptogenic herbs support body wide resilience and the nervous system’s ability to adapt and respond to stress. Rhodiola modulates the HPA axis (Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal axis) by regulating cortisol levels and enhancing neurotransmitters. Used as a tonic over time, it can help reduce fatigue, support the body’s overall stress response and protect against stress induced cellular damage while improving mood, focus and energy.
Rhodiola can be a supportive daily tonic to reduce mental and physical fatigue, and enhance cognitive function, memory and focus while under stress. In addition, it can support a healthy endocrine system by modulating thyroid, thymus and adrenal function. It is an excellent tonic for athletes and anyone who exercises regularly, mitigating inflammation and protecting muscle tissue, thus enhancing performance and supporting increased muscle strength over time. Rhodiola can also aid in preventing altitude sickness and can be supportive while traveling or embarking upon alpine adventures.
Because Rhodiola has become increasingly popular in recent years, it is at risk in many of its wild habitats due to overharvesting and habitat destruction. We are pleased to now offer this single herb tincture that is responsibly sourced from a small organic family farm in Alaska and not wild harvested!
