<description> Tabo from Cambridge, Ma writes: "Rhodiola: for depression and stress relief: I\'ve been taking 100mg a day 1/2hr before meals for about 3wks nor hoping to relieve nerve tension my nerves are bad. I\'m 43 yrs old. I consider myself to be a healthy individual I have posterial tremors in (nerve shaking in hands and legs) as well as mild depression and stress. The only other only herbal supplements I take are calcium, vitamin D. The only changes I\'ve noticed with taking rhodiola is my sleep pattern. It helps me wake up in the morning without feeling so tired. I don\'t have trouble sleeping. I fall asleep easily but hard for me to wake up in the morning without feeling if I haven\'t gotten enough sleep even though I have. That\'s the only noticeable change I\'ve felt. I need something to calm my nereves I feel anxious at times and jittery. What would you recommend?

<description>[YEA] Rosemarie from Poole, Dorset, Uk writes: "I\'m 45. I\'ve purchased Rhodiola Rosea 1000mg online in the UK. One tablet per day, as a 250mg extract providing Rosavins 8mg. I\'ve had these for some time, not taken, then yesterday, here alone, trying to sort my horrendously cluttered flat, I was feeling depressed then I just started to cry and cry and felt so lonely. In the end I thought about taking a tablet, anything to help... And blimey! , within an hour I was feeling calm and after months of thinking about it I managed to empty and store my 3 suitcases in the alcove behind the kitchen door and clear my hallway and some of the lounge! Is that coincidence? My flat now shows promise of how nice it can look! Anyway I\'ve just had breakfast and taken my second Rhodiola Rosea tablet! I was worried they\'d harm long-term but from this site they seem to be a boon of Mother Nature\'s bounty for us. God bless!

<description>[BETTER BUT WITH SIDE EFFECTS] Michael from Lorain, Ohio writes: "I\'ve been taking rhodiola for over a year now. It is a miricle herb. I\'m so motivated to do all sorts of things every time I\'m on it. I notice that I\'m sharper and can concentrate better. I notice a ton more energy (note that my rhodiola is paired with a little green tea extract). When I run really hard, it hurts less (and I run really freaking hard lol). When I\'m just having \"one of those days\" it always turns it around for me. 

I do however get the \"jitters\", but better the jitters than the \"ughs\" or the \"idon\'twannas\" I say lol.

I have never thought that a pill would be noticeable to wake you up. But I\'m in landscaping and took it every morning last week except thursday.. I had extreme fatigue all day, weak and loss energy all day. That friday I took it in the morning after sleeping 1.5 hours because I was up with girls and my friend, and I had more energy all day for that 10 hour shift than I was for 10 hours the thursday with full sleep. I do belive this works and im buying alot of it in the future to come!!

The anxiety is so severe it borders on anxiety attacks. I exercise daily and eat well, but taking Rhodiola has sent me to counseling. At first I didn\'t know why I was feeling so out-of-control until it dawned on me...... it was the Rhodiola.

Also, when we wake up we still are so groggy and half asleep that walking into walls and driving on the wrong side of the street is a normal thing. When I started rhodiola 1 year ago it changed my life in quality. I am prone to getting on whatever I could to keep me awake to be able to get through life, and anti depressants? Well, lets just say I got to try all of them on for size at one time or another. Thanks to this remarkable plant I am off of them and happy.

<description> Bruce from St Louis, Missouri writes: "I\'m sorry. I\'ve read this entire blog and came away with several versions and several dosages. Some from Siberia, Some from Canada, some from Asia.

I need something to relieve my stress and depression I\'ve developed over my wife\'s diagnosis of advanced cancer. I\'m depressed and simply wake up sick to my stomach every morning. This cannot help her either.

Can someone give me a link to a spot that they know works for certain (has the 3% rosavins, salidroside, Siberian, choice of dosages, etc.)?

Thanks to all......

<description> Calgary from Calgary, Ab Canada writes: "I disagree that Rhodiola has to be from Siberia. How are you going to find it if you are in North America? Sure the seeds have to be shipped from Finland or Siberia. But then you can grow them in Alberta as Alberta farmers have done here in Canada for several years. And then the root can be processed into supplements. I even bought some seedlings of Rhodiola from Harmonic Herbs in Barrhead AB and planted them in my backyard, they appear to be doing well. Once the plants grow I\'m using the leaves and flowers to make Rhodiola tea, and around 2017 once I know how to harvest the roots, I will do that too. In October of this year I plan on gettings some seeds germinating in the cold and then once they are big enough in the small planters, planting them in the front yard, here in Calgary.

<description> Calgary_rip_off from Calgary, Ab, Canada writes: "On your site you indicated that Rhodiola should only be from Siberia. What studies indicate this? Given that I live in Canada and I want this herb how am I to get it? It actually is grown here in Alberta, which is cold here like Siberia in Russia. The town of Thorsby has numerous farmers that grow Rhodiola. There is a seller that sells the seeds to individuals from Barrhead, AB. You can grow your own in your yard here. Rhodiola is available from supplement companies in eastern B. C. And A. B. So you know its grown locally and it does work. It does something, the effects are subtle, but it is worth the money. It makes me very happy that I can grow it in my backyard and that it is locally grown because it is so cold here in Alberta most of the year. So forget about that nonsense of having to go to Siberia. It is available in North America also.

I am completely normal while taking this product and if I run out I am unable to keep up the vigorous daily schedule I have, high school teacher, tutor after school, practice 1 1/2 hours yoga daily, single mom, home owner. I had been getting exhausted in the afternoons recently (after taking 1 capsule 250 miligrams daily for about 1 year) I started taking another one in afternoon and my day can continue throughout the evening in a more balanced and productive way ( with a smile ) instead of miserable. I sleep by 10:30, 11 each night and arise at 4:45 feeling rested. I WAS NEVER LIKE THIS. Thanks to my naturopath doctor who recommended it after I refused anti-depressants, or anxiety medicine. THIS STUFF WORKS I wish more people new about it!

<description> B.k. from Calgary, Alberta/canada writes: "After months of reading about ACV treatments and uses and getting great ideas and info from others, I can finally contribute a bit to this great site. I read about someone looking for Rhodiola rosea. I actually started taking this just over a month ago. For me it has helped reduce that brain fog I have from FM. The energy increase for me has been noticable. The other thing I have read from online research is that it can also help with stopping smoking, currently assessing this (hope they are right). Anyways, the type I found in Canada with high quality guarantee was Rhoziva brand. After reading the stuff I could buy, this was the best for me. Hope this can help others. Not sure if it still works but I even got a discount code NGS25 for 25% off since their free shipping was for 5 boxes or more and since I didn\'t know how the product worked didn\'t want to do more then two. Will be updating results after more time has passed, so far, \"yea\" to rhodiola rosea.

<description> Gb08 from Chicago, Illinois writes: "I started taking Rhodiola 5 days ago and have immediately noticed improvements across the board! I take one capsule (340 mg of Rhodiola) in the morning and have seen an increase in my energy. I work long hours and often times have found myself drained by the end of a long shift; with Rhodiola in my system I've worked some of the longest/hardest shifts of my life and felt COMPLETELY FINE by the end! My memory has improved and I have noticed a tangible spike in my happiness/personality. It's a wonder drug, and taking it has been one of the best decisions I have ever made. I used to take SSRIs like sertraline and citalopram and this makes me feel much better, without the nasty side effects! 

Question: Does anyone have a brand that they swear by? I use the GNC version but am considering looking for something more potent. Thanks!!

I have a full-time job, family, and also go to school. My memory isn't what it used to be and neither is my patience. I won't go a day without taking this.

<description> Carolyn from Slave Lake, Alberta, Canada writes: "Pertaining to the following paragraph:

You should buy only Rhodiola of Russian origin with key active components of Rosavin, Rosarin and Rosin. Be careful -- in the USA, Rhodiola rosea formulas sold as "Tibetan" Rhodiola or Chinese Rhodiola contain no active components. These formulas lack the key ingredient Rosavins while they are high in Salidroside. Supposedly, only Rhodiola from West and North Siberia contains the critical components of Rosavin, Rosarin and Salidroside.

What are the names of the Russian products and where can they be purchased?

The store closed and I haven't been able to find any other rhodiola that works for me they either send my anxiety levels way too high or I suffer from deliberating headaches. I am not sure if the fillers cause problems or the rhodiola is not good quality, I would love to feel alive again please can anyone help. 

Is there a difference between rhodiola rosea and rhodiola rosea root extract? I have bought both in the past but nothing worked like the stores own brand I tried in 2005.

<description>[BETTER BUT WITH SIDE EFFECTS] Jennifer  from Sunrise, Fl, Usa writes: "Rhodiola is one of the best supplements in my product arsenal!! It has helped me tremendously with my depression, physical stamina, fatigue, anxiety, and with my skin.

I suffer from Hashimoto's thyroiditis and have very low energy reserves. One of the biggest problems that I had was that I could barely get through the day without taking a nap. In addition, although I exercise every day, I had to exercise at night because after 30 minutes of aerobic exercise, I would be completely wiped out (if I could get through 30 minutes at all).

After taking rhodiola (and oil pulling) every day, I noticed that I no longer needed to take a nap during the day anymore. Since taking rhodiola and oil pulling, I feel alert, energized, and refreshed all day - After 6 years of suffering with low thyroid, I finally feel like a "normal" person again. The difference in my physical stamina is just incredible. I feel like I can accomplish almost anything physically - now I can run for 30 minutes with extra energy to spare! 

Another wonderful benefit is that rhodiola is great for your skin. I take it with vitamin E and now my acne-prone skin is much clearer, even-toned, and has a wonderful "glow".

The only side effect/drawback of rhodiola that I experiencd was with my anxiety. At first, rhodiola really helped me with my mild anxiety, but after a few weeks, my anxiety became very severe to the point where I was starting to get panic attacks and a constant feeling of dread, so I discontinued use. (I had the same anxiety "rebound" problem with 5-HTP and Acetyl L-Carnitine when I was taking those too). Now, I take a teaspoon of ionic magnesium citrate every day, which has cured my anxiety. With the magnesium, I can finally take the rhodiola again without any anxiety problems.
