Rhodiola rosea is a remarkable herb that has a wide and varied history of uses. It is thought to strengthen the nervous system, fight depression, enhance immunity, elevate the capacity for exercise, enhance memory, aid weight reduction, increase sexual function and improve energy levels. It has long been known as a potent adaptogen. Adaptogens are natural plant substances that increase the body's non-specific resistance and normalize the functions of the body.

Botanical Name: Rhodiola rosea

Traditional Use: Promotes Energy, Endurance & Stamina*

Plant Part Extracted: Dried Russian-harvested whole root

Other Ingredients: distilled water & vegetable glycerine.

Herbal glycerites are very similar to our liquid herbal extracts and they can be used in the same way. The difference is a slightly adjusted extraction process, which enables us to extract the herbs with natural plant glycerine instead of alcohol.

Description: We prepare our Rhodiola Extract from the dried roots of Rhodiola rosea plants which are hand-harvested in their wild native habitat in the Russian Arctic Circle.

To assure optimal extraction of Rhodiola's antioxidant flavonoids and delicate rose flavor, the roots are hand-harvested at their optimal potency, are carefully shade-dried, and are then shipped directly to our laboratory and thoroughly extracted.

Our Rhodiola is never fumigated or irradiated.

More About Herb Pharm
Herbal medicines are only as effective as the quality of the herbs from which they are made. When Ed Smith and Sara Katz founded Herb Pharm in 1979 they understood as herbalists this basic principle and have never compromised in their efforts to provide the highest quality, most effective whole-herb healthcare products possible. They know that producing effective herbal extracts that enable people to affect positive changes in the quality of their health is based on diligent study and understanding of traditional herbal medicine, as well as modern herbal sciences. At Herb Pharm they grow most of the herbs on the “Pharm Farm” – their certified organic farm located in a rural valley of the Siskiyou Mountains in southern Oregon. As organic farmers, they never use synthetic fertilizers, herbicides and pesticides, nor do they use genetically modified seeds. Instead, employing fundamental, time-honored sustainable agriculture techniques including crop rotation, cover cropping, natural weed control such as hand weeding and flame weeding, and composting to condition the soil. Each year, our farm is inspected and certified as organic by Oregon Tilth.
