The main medical constituents of this herb  are eight in number, including rosarin, rosavin, rosin, salidroside, tyrosol, rhodionin, catechin and gallic acid. It also possesses several other significant antioxidants. Rodiola stimulates immunity, enhances DNA repair and modulates adaptation to hypoxia and angiogenesis.  According to a comprehensive review of the literature on Rhodiola, supplementation provides cognitive stimulation and supports healthy work performance, quality of sleep, emotional calming, appetite, and energy levels subsequent to intense physical or intellectual strain.*

The herbs also protects the gastric mucosa, and supports healthy body weight and an array of blood hormones. Ginsenosides also support the immune system and have cytokine-modulating activities. has been used in medicine for over 5000 years. In summary, Panax enhances athletic performance, and provides energy to people who are stressed or fatigued.*

    • Siberian ginseng - Eleutherococcus senticosus/Acanthopanax senticosus (root & stem extract standardized to 0.8% Eleutherosides B & E; ) - Is not actually ginseng, but rather a different plant species.  It contains eleutherosides and ciwujianosides as opposed to ginsenosides. Both stimulate cortisol production during exercise, energy and lessen fatigue. Additionally, this herb is well-known to support the immune system. Eleuthero has also been associated with increased mental ability, concentration and greater alertness.*

    • Ashwagandha - Withania somnifera  (root extract standardized to 1.5% Withanolides) - Aswagandha is one of the most vital herbs in Ayurvedic healing, has been used since ancient times for a wide variety of conditions, but is most well-known for its restorative benefits.  It is the ginseng of the Ayurvedic medicine.  A comprehensive cortisol study in mice revealed Ashwaganda extract reduced fatigue and increased stamina while increasing levels of circulating cortisol. One recent human clinical study showed that it promoted restoration to healthier levels four adrenal hormones. Specifically in this single case study, Ashwanganda helped normalize 3-β-ol dehydrogenase deficiency and aldosterone synthase deficiency. In general, the herb helps improve physical energy and athletic ability, increase immunity to those common winter challenges and increase sexual capacity and fertility.  Ashwaganda seems to show positive effects on the endocrine, cardio, and central nervous systems.  It is one herb that could help your body produce its own thyroid hormones.*
