Rhoziva 100mg - 60 Caps

Rhodiola rosea is a plant that grows in high elevations and harsh climates and it produces a root that has natural occurring substances that are tremendous at helping to counter the ill effects of stress including symptoms related to depression, anxiety, lack of focus, mental fatigue and things like that.

How does it work?

It reduces stress by lowering cortisol and adrenalin levels. When a person is stressed, the body produces a lot of cortisol and adrenalin. The function of cortisol is to help a person deal with a stressful situation better. The release of glucose into the blood stream provides more energy to deal with that stressful situation. These changes are great for short term stress but they don't serve your health. They can actually make your health worse if stress persists. This is where rhodiolarosea helps. When it was tested against other herbs or plants that are known as adaptogenic herbs (herbs that help to deal with stress), it came first at lowering cortisol levels.

What's unique about the Rhoziva brand of rhodiolarosea?

The uniqueness is that it is the first time that the plant has been grown and harvested in Canada, more specifically in Alberta, in fields north of Edmonton and south of Calgary. What's unique about that environment is that much like the indigenous place of growth of it in Russia and Siberia, Alberta is very cold and its elevation is 3500 feet above sea level. It makes the place ideal for cultivation.

How do people feel after taking it?

Like an edge has been taken off. It makes them happier, and less depressed. It has been helpful at improving sleep and increasing focus. Great for students, who are dealing with a heavy course load and exams. It can help students to diminish their mental fatigue, improve their energy levels and ability to focus.

Who else should take it?

It has some B vitamins, folate, zinc and magnesium. Anybody who feels that their burden of stress is too high and that it is potentially affecting them or anybody that feels fatigued as a result of that would benefit.

Rhoziva for BALANCE

Do you suffer from low energy or memory lapses? Do you often feel depressed or moody? If so, it's possible that you suffer from a condition called asthenia. Asthenia is a condition defined as "abnormal physical weakness or lack of energy" and is characterized by symptoms that include sleep disturbances, moodiness, hypertension, fatigue, headache, irritability, poor appetite, and reduced work performance.

Rhodiola rosea and its positive adaptogenic effects are well documented as being an effective way to assist in dealing with life's stressful situations. An adaptogen is a botanical that exerts a normalizing effect upon bodily processes, creating an ideal biological environment for the reduction of stress. Everybody deals with the stressors in their life in their own way, but many people in today's high-pressure, fast-paced workplaces have been looking for simple answers and helpful solutions to this dilemma. Rhodiola rosea has been found to stimulate the neurotransmitters responsible for creating feelings of well-being as well as offering significant relief for low energy conditions like asthenia. The reason that Rhodiola is effective at combating moodiness is due to the fact that it increases levels of neurotransmitters such as serotonin, dopamine and norepinephrine, all of which create "good feelings" in the brain.

When under constant or recurring stress, the body will produce more free radicals, a by-product of burning energy, that can cause a destructive chain reaction if not balanced by an antioxidant like Rhoziva.

Rhodiola Rosea has been featured on the Oprah Winfrey Show as a stress reducing, anti-aging herb in, "Reverse Your Aging Process," with Dr. Oz where he stated "the #1 factor in sickness and aging is STRESS." Research shows that using Rhodiola rosea can raise brain serotonin levels by up to 30%.

Rhoziva for ATHLETES

Do you want more energy for your training while reducing recovery time?

Has your stamina and endurance hit a plateau?

Rhodiola rosea is a highly effective aid to athletes in many ways. It increases the production of creatine phosphate and ATP (high-energy molecules) at a cellular level. It also increases the rate at which oxygen is utilized in the muscles. These factors contribute to faster recovery times, while also creating ideal conditions for greater speed, strength, and endurance.>Rhodiola rosea has even been used by high alpine climbers to prevent altitude sickness, as it can assist in mitigating the deteriorating effects of oxygen deprivation on the body. Rhodiola rosea has been well studied for its effects on reducing fatigue, increasing stamina while maximizing peak physical performance.

An Ancient Foundation

In traditional folk medicine, the use of Rhodiola rosea has been documented for thousands of years. Its origins lie within the remote Caucasus Mountains of Siberia. Since there is documented proof of its medical applications in the ancient Greek physician Dioscorides' classic medical text "De Materia Medica," we know the herb was traded thousands of miles from where it was grown. It was prized by the Vikings for imparting endurance and strength on treks and ocean-going voyages. It was also held in high regard by the Chinese.

Rhodiola rosea has been treasured for thousands of years for its qualities of anti-aging, enhanced energy, increased endurance and stamina, and ability to deliver a sense of well-being. The locations where the plants were grown were often a closely guarded secret of the herb traders and to this day Rhodiola crops in Siberia have guards posted to deter poaching.

Rhodiola rosea has been a staple of medicine in Europe for over three millennia. It was a common belief that drinking teas brewed from it could extend life up to a century. In an era when shipping goods for thousands of miles was prohibitively difficult, Rhodiola rosea was regularly traded in the Greek empire, far distant from Siberia, its distant land of origin. In the Greek myth of Jason, Rhodiola was used to increase strength for battle. The ancient Chinese, long known as world leaders in herbal remedies, called it "Golden Root", perhaps because they valued it more highly than gold. The Chinese emperors of those days dispatched Siberian expeditions to retrieve this priceless arctic treasure. The knowledge of the places where Rhodiola rosea grew was a tightly kept proprietary secret, known only to a few select families throughout history.

That tradition of secrecy continued into the twentieth century. When Russian scientists rediscovered the Rhodiola herb they did not share any of their findings beyond their own borders. For many years, safely tucked away behind the Iron Curtain, the benefits of Rhodiola were studied and used for practical applications. The Russian Olympic team was administered by Rhodiola rosea, and it is during this era that Russian Olympians developed their world famous reputation for strength, power, and grace. Rhodiola was also used to treat Russian cosmonauts in order to relieve the intense stress created by space missions.

The time has come to bring this plant out of obscurity and provide a modern, scientifically proven, top quality source that can be enjoyed by the masses.
