You've read scads of information about overnight weight loss, 10 day miracles and lots of subway stories. Go ahead, try those things if you must, but read this article for some real, sound, safe nutritional information for ways to start reducing your weight today and maintaining it over the long term.
Clinically proven to fight obesity & depression. In a study of 128 individuals of all ages with various forms of depression who were given Rhodiola rosea, the only ingredient in Rhosavin100™, all test subjects showed positive therapeutic effects. And, 65% had complete disappearance of their depression. It is thought to work by making serotonin's precursors, tryptophan and 5-HTP, more available to the brain and by increasing the amount of serotonin in the brain (needed by people on low carb diets). In a separate placebo controlled study involving 130 overweight patients over 90 days at the Georgian State Hospital (in the former Soviet Union), of those who consumed rhodiola rosea, 92% lost a remarkable average of 20 pounds while a placebo group on the same diet lost just 7 pounds. This difference is presumably due to Rhosavin100™’s ability to activate adipose lipase, a key enzyme required to burn the body’s fat stores.
Other benefits of this amazing herb include its ability to:
Increase body's ability to handle stresses of all kinds. Partly by calming the sympathetic (fight or flight) nervous system and relaxing the parasympathetic system. Subjects given the chief ingredient in Rhosavin100™ showed increased levels of beta-endorphin (the stress relieving, feel-good, analgesic peptide) in the brain.
Improve endurance levels. Excellent for athletes and body builders. A study of 52 individuals of all ages showed a 12% increase in the duration of physical performance. When initially fatigued and asked to perform the test, it increased to 28%! Rhosavin100™ increases muscular ATP and creatine levels.
Enhance sexual potency. In a test of 35 subjects with weak erections and/or premature ejaculations, 50 mg per day was found to provide substantial improvement in 26 of the 35. Seminal fluid also showed an increase in the production of sex hormones.
Combat depression and anxiety. A study of 128 individuals of all ages involving the ingredient in Rhosavin100™ with various forms of depression showed that 65% had a complete disappearance of their depression. It has been used with a variety of prescription antidepressants with no apparent problems.
Protect against heart attacks. Stress causes adrenalin release which over time can "burn" the heart (heart muscle damage) found in 86% of heart attack victims. Rhosavin100™ decreases the amount of cortisol and adrenalin released during stress which protects the heart against "adrenalin burn." Rhosavin100™ also lowers serum fats and cholesterol while increasing the resistance of blood vessels to cholesterol plaques. If that weren't enough it also protects against arrhythmias (abnormal heart beats) by potentiating endorphins (natural opiates that regulate heart beat.)
Increase protein metabolism. Valuable for body builders. Researchers considered the main ingredient in Rhosavin100™ the equivalent of anabolic steroids without the side-effects. Muscle protein and glutamic acid (from L-Glutamine) are enhanced by Rhosavin100™. It also increases hemoglobin and red blood cell levels while favorable changing the muscle to fat ratio of the body.
Treat 130 overweight patients 92% of whom lost an average of 20 pounds each. The effect of Rhosavin100™ on weight and fat metabolism was studied at Georgian State Hospital. A dosage of 300mg. was admnistered in 1/ 100mg. capsule before each of three meals. At higher doses this herb will cause a sedative effect.
Treat 128 individuals 65% of whom had complete disappearance of their depression.
Immune stimulation. Increases immune response while blocking the immune lowering effects of cortisol. In one animal experiment, natural killer cell activity increased significantly.
Increase strength, mobility, learning, memory and attention span.

Fat accumulated in adipose tissue is very stubborn to reduce. It is a very difficult task to force this unwanted fat out of the body. Stored fat is mobilized by the action of the enzyme lipase. However, this adipose lipase is a special type of enzyme different from the pancreatic lipase in the intestines. It is known as hormone-sensitive lipase. Hormone-sensitive lipase specifically regulates stored fat in adipose tissue. For many years researchers have been searching for natural substances that could specifically activate hormone-sensitive adipose lipase. Research has demonstrated that Rhidiola rosea stimulates the biosynthesis of the hormones epinephrine, norephinephrine and adrenocorticotropic hormone. Epinephrine, norephinephrine and the hormone adrenocorticotropic activate adenilate cyclase (cAMP) in adipose cells. The increased levels of cAMP, in turn, activate hormone-sensitive lipase which plays a key role in breaking down the fat stored in adipose tissue. These released fatty acids are then forced to circulate in the blood. It is important to use these fatty acids that have been released from fat tissue by exercising, such as walking, jogging or yoga, etc.
Rhodiola rosea will activate fatty acid release from fat tissue under normal day to day activities. However, the effect of Rhodiola rosea on fatty acid enhancement is much stronger during exercise.
