The entire Rhodiola plant has been recognized for thousands of years for its medicinal properties. The flowers have been used to treat discomforts in the stomach and intestinal pain, but in olden times, the flowers would be eaten raw to treat tuberculosis. Rhodiola has been used throughout Europe and Russia for thousands of years due to its numerous medicinal properties, particularly for mood uplifting and relaxation properties.
In Siberian history, locals considered the plant as a gift from the spirits or the golden root. Rhodiola was given to couples in order to produce healthy children. For centuries, Russians have also used Rhodiola in order to cope with the cold climate and stressful way of life, as the plant has been known to have properties that increase physical as well as mental performance. It is also noted that the Rhodiola has been used by the Vikings, helping them manage stress, boost their energy, and physically cope with the cold weather.
Rhodiola extract 5% has been recognized as an adaptogen plant. An adaptogen is a plant product that is able to increase the body's performance and resistance in fighting off stress caused by chemical, biological, and physical factors as well as anxiety and fatigue by regularizing hormonal response. This is important because studies have shown that external factors such as chemical and physical stress have been a cause for heart disease, hypertension, certain cancers, insomnia, irritability, and fatigue. Because of the adaptogenic properties of Rhodiola extract 5%, users who take this during stressful situations can see a change with the way their body reacts to the stress. The body is then more fit and able to handle stress in a healthy, natural, and resourceful way.
