Rhodiola rosea extract is produced from the root of Rhodiola rosea (golden root, Arctic root) through ethanol-water extraction. The extract is dual-standardized for rosavins (rosavin, rosin, rosarin) and salidroside, the key bioactive compounds. Rhodiola is classified as an adaptogen. This helps the body resist physical, chemical, and biological stressors through HPA axis modulation.
Clinical evidence supports its efficacy in reducing fatigue. This improves cognitive function under stress. This enhances exercise performance, and alleviating mild-to-moderate depression. Commercially, rhodiola extract is widely used in stress management supplements, nootropic formulations, sports nutrition, and energy-enhancing products.
