What Else You Need to Know: It is well established that chronic stress releases hormones known to accelerate aging, cause breakouts, and negatively impact our overall health. Formulated with 500 mg of rhodiola, this supplement is designed to improve your body’s response to stress. Now, take a deep breath, let the little stresses of life roll off your back, and smile easy*.
Rhodiola is a powerful root that is often referred to as an adaptogen because of its ability to interact with hormones. Specifically, it impacts the stress hormone cortisol, helping improve mental focus and calming the body. In addition to stabilizing stress levels, rhodiola can help the body more easily adapt to physical and environmental strains, preventing fatigue and increasing productivity.
Clinical Results: A 2012 study on the effects of rhodiola extract on mental performance under stress and fatigue found that the group who received the active ingredients had lower fatigue and performed better than those who received the placebo.
A small study at UCLA conducted in 2008 found that those who took the herb for 10 weeks observed a significant improvement in their anxiety levels.
