NOW Supplements, Rhodiola 500 mg, Helps Body Adapt to Stress of Daily Life*, Adaptogenic Herb*, 60 Veg Capsules

This is a wonderful supplement, I have been taking this supplement for years, they help with fatigue & when I have ran out & not taken them,I can tell the difference. I took this particular brand & worked a 12 hour shift & it also helps with your mood & anxiety. I usually take one capsule and somedays I have taken two. This is a good price & with NOW products you can always trust the quality.

I use everyday. I trust Now products. I order Now supplements regular.

I usually take this in the morning when I get up and I know the day is going to suck. I would say it's helped keep the highs from getting too high and put guard rails on things that would normally get me anxious. I actually get about 50mg from another supplement and it's amazing what even a low dose of that does to take the edge off something like bacopa. I find this helps me manage my stress levels to something manageable, if I do pop off, I'm not stuck on that particular rant or subject as long.I'm definitely a little more edgy not being on it or as the day goes on but for a good portion of the day I'm definitely better for it. It is a little spendy for me, I want it to do more but at the same time I also know that it is doing a lot, it's just not fancy or showy about it.

Occasional use during stressful times.

I love the way Rhodiola enhances my ability to focus and feel alert and energetic without containing any stimulants. It is a wonderful adaptogen that I have been taking for about 8 years.

I've been using this for years and it does help with all the stress in this world.A Very Happy Customer

One a day keeps the gremlins away.

Rhodiola is typically purported to help with anxiety (boosting mood/alleviating mild-to-mid depression) and lightly increasing energy levels/improving memory. As with most supplements -- your mileage may vary, if at all.This bottle includes 120 daily doses of the generally accepted dosage for an adult (500 mg). I've had experience with NOW vitamins and they would be at the top of my list for suppliers. On the bottle it says these are made/tested in USA with globally sourced ingredients. Label says 3% total rosavins and 1% salidroside.Capsules can be opened and blended if needed and the size of them would be on the larger side. I didn't have issues swallowing it, but they are somewhat large (no aftertaste burps noted).Have been taking these for 1-2 weeks and have noted improved mood/energy though I admit that might be a placebo effect.Some things to note about these:1. There are not a lot of studies with this product so it's generally not recommended to take more than 6 weeks at a time. There have been reports of insomnia/anxiety/headaches with long-term usage of Rhodiola so keep that in mind. It's recommended to kind of split up your dosage periods (5 weeks on 3 weeks off as an example).2. It's not recommended for use in elderly, children, and pregnant women because of the lack of studies done.3. Talk with your doctor before taking this alongside: anti-depressants, blood pressure meds, or blood clot meds.Overall pleased with the quality of NOW vitamins, and so far Rhodiola does seem to help the mood a bit.
