Rhodiola Rosea (Rhodiola rosea) - A medicinal plant native to remote Siberia with a strong adaptogenic effect, i.e. a tonic influence on the autonomic nervous system and the HPA axis. It shows anti-radical potential, and supports the cognitive functions of the system, in addition to increasing the availability of metabolic energy.

Adaptogenic properties
Adaptogens are substances that significantly facilitate adaptation and immunization to ubiquitous stressors arriving from the external environment. They can be of great help in the current lifestyle, which, due to its pace, is full of stimuli that raise stress levels.

The substances in rhodiola rosea have a tonic effect on the vegetative nervous system, as well as the HPA (hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal) axis, especially during physical or mental stress, and can mobilize the immune system to fight back.

Improving nerve capacity
Due to the aforementioned problems, which are often compounded by insufficient rest, improper diet, or work overload, people are increasingly looking for supplements that will enhance their cognitive and regenerative abilities in some way.

It has been noted that rhodiola rosea can modulate the activity of several pathways within the central nervous system. First and foremost, it increases the concentration of serotonin and dopamine - neurotransmitters responsible for motivation to act, a sense of fulfillment, as well as controlling proper sleep.

Rhodiola extract noticeably improves cognitive functions, thereby enhancing learning abilities. In addition, due to its high content of salidrosides with antioxidant properties, it has a protective effect on the cells of the nervous system.

Guarding homeostasis and good health
There is a lot of talk about the use of prevention of cardiovascular diseases, which are almost a scourge of the current era. In line with this, the effects of compounds with potentially beneficial effects are being studied. Rhodiola rosea shows such, thanks to reducing the tension of the sympathetic nervous system, preventing the frequent rise in blood pressure and abnormal heart function.

For many, a very important aspect is good physical condition. It has been observed that rhodiola increases the availability of metabolic energy in cells. This happens by means of raising the levels of ATP and phosphocreatine in the mitochondria, compounds responsible for, among other things, the occurrence of muscle contraction. In addition, it affects a decrease in the concentration of markers indicating possible damage to muscle tissue.
