Rhodiola Root

Rhodiola rosea, known as golden root or arctic root, has a long history in Eastern European and Asian herbal practice. Its root is associated with physical and mental endurance, especially when sustained demands bring fatigue and a feeling of depleted energy.

Rhodiola is traditionally described as an adaptogen: a plant used in approaches to coping with stress. Workload, study and periods of increased activity are the practical contexts behind this use. The listed contexts describe traditional use alongside adequate rest and recovery.
