In reply to Rhodiola Rosea any one???, posted by disney4 on January 22, 2003, at 15:46:41
I take Rhodiola Rosea and I really like it. My meds do a pretty good job. But Rhodiola adds a nice touch. For me it provides anti-anxiety but increased energy and enthusiasm at the same time. I can tell first thing in the morning that I am generally brighter, happier, and calmer.
There is only one real good brand that I know of. A good brand should have 4% of more Rosavin content. Most brands don't. The one good brand is shipped from Europe, takes about a week, and costs $17, and has 4% Rosavin from true Russian Rhodiola Rosea (versus Rhodiola from other countries which is often inferior or useless).
I felt Rhodiola begin to work the very first day. The dosage of the brand I take is 2 tabs three times a day. But I'm doing fine with just one tab twice a day.
