It is an adaptogen that comes from the Polar Arctic regions of Eastern Siberia. Rodiola rosea, now trademarked as Rhosavin100™, is one of the more fascinating plant species in the world today and was largely unknown in the United States until information about the properties of the herb were published in Newsday, Herbalgram, Prevention Magazine and Alternative Medicine Magazine.

Rhodiola rosea has been shown to:

be a safe remedy for weight loss

increase energy levels, physical endurance

decrease depression

increase resistance to high altitude sickness

elevate mood

reduce stress

support hormonal health

History and Science
In Siberia, it is still said, "people who drink Rhodiola tea will live more than 100 years." Very little research has been performed on Rhodiola rosea until 1931. At that time Russian Botanist and nutritionist Dr. L. Utkin discovered that this plant increases sexual potency. In 1947 Russian scientist Professor Lasarev found that Rhodiola rosea helped increase the body's natural resistance to different environmental stresses. In fact, all test subjects showed an improvement in their general physical & mental states after taking only 100mgs a day. It was found that all the patients with depression had a positive response.

Rhodiola rosea and WEIGHT LOSS
If there is such a thing as a perfect weight loss/stress relieving herb, this could be it. Rhosavin100™ contains the two essential elements needed by most people to lose weight and truly feel great, naturally. Not only does this Russian herb, have the ability to lift the stress that causes your body to crave foods of comfort and store more fat, it also has the power to make you lose weight. In a placebo controlled study of Rhodiola rosea’s ability to mobilize fatty acids from adipose tissue, 121 subjects were given either Rhodiola rosea or a placebo and their serum lipid levels were tested at rest and after one hour of exercise. The Rhodiola group had 6% greater serum fatty acid levels than the placebo group at rest and 44% greater levels after one hour of exercise. This difference is due to Rhodiola rosea’s ability to activate adipose lipase, a key enzyme required to burn the body’s fat stores, resulting in an amazing weight loss herb.

Is It Safe?
Rhodiola rosea was found to be four times less potentially toxic than Korean ginseng even in high doses. The recommended dosage is 100mgs to 300mgs per day.

Does It Have Side Effects?
Studies found that the following side effects could occur at higher doses a day: irritability, insomnia, fatigue and unpleasant sensations. No other effects were observed.

Who Should Use Rhosavin100™?
Those with low moods or anxiety. Anyone who must increase mental alertness. All athletes or those involved with sports activities. All who wish to increase their sexual stamina. Those seeking a safe, effective herbal supplement for weight reduction.

The Correct Dose of Rhosavin100™.
The beneficial effects of Rhosavin100™ are shown clinically to be optimal between 100-300mg. per day. Higher doses can cause a paradoxical sedative effect rather than the energizing effects. The best standardization is around 3% active ingredients. Medicine Plants™ offers Rhosavin100™, standardized to 3.4% active ingredients. Available in bottles of 60/100mg veggie caps for $18.95 each. Discounts for larger orders.

"Beware of substitutes: Part of the problem with popularizing a relatively new phyto-medicinal product, such as standardized Rhodiola rosea root extract, is the confusion that arises when consumers are offered a variety of "Rhodiola" products, some much cheaper than others, without being given enough reliable information to judge for themselves which is the 'real Rhodiola.' Some of these 'products' use other species of Rhodiola or non-standardized extracts and hope to 'ride on the coattails' of the early consumer marketing efforts of ethical companies." Dr. Zakir Ramazanov
Rhosavin100™ is certified by Dr. Ramazanov.

Moreover, these adulterated products use misleading promotional materials or are even mislabeled to imply false equivalency with Rhodiola rosea extracts standardized for the minimum guaranteed potency of minimum 3 percent rosavins.

True Siberian Rhodiola rosea root extract must contain rosavins, rosiridin and salidroside in ratios approximately 3:1:1 that reflect the phytochemistry of the natural plant. For example, Rhosavin100™ contains 3.5% rosavins, 1% rosiridins and 1% salidroside.

In fact, products containing high salidrosides or vaguely labeled Rhodiolax in general terms without full botanical name, probably means that it is not made from true Siberian Rhodiola rosea root, and therefore lacks its clinically demonstrated health benefits of Rhosavin100, which always meets these standards.
