Rhodiola Rosea L. is commonly known as “golden root” as much for its color as its golden properties. A popular plant in traditional medicine throughout Eastern Europe and Asia, the golden root is renowned for help lowering depression, enhancing work performance, fighting fatigue, and reducing stress*. Golden root is so effective that it is considered one of the most potent natural stress relievers and anti-fatigue agent*.

In regards to fatigue, Rhodiola appears to be able to significantly help reduce the effects of prolonged and minor physical exhaustion that results in fatigue*. This is more related to stress and the ‘burnout’ effect, or prolonged but low-intensity physical exercise*.

Other potential uses of Rhodiola include preliminary evidence that it is highly neuroprotective against toxins (requires more evidence) and that ingestion of Rhodiola or its active component can reduce stress-induced binge eating in female rats*.
