Nature's Way Rhodiola Premium Extract, 250 mg per serving, Supports Energy & Cognitive Performance*, Adaptogenic Herb*, Non-GMO Project Verified, Vegan, Gluten Free, 60 Capsules (Packaging May Vary)

I researched this herb bc my memory isn't what it used to be. I have trouble remembering what I said or did yesterday. I am hypothyroid. I bought this brand at Sprouts. The first week of taking it I remembered stuff quicker than my husband who has a quick memory. Right there i knew it has to be this supplement. He also started taking it bc he has noticed my memory has gotten better. Plus, I get better energy throughout the day and after work I still feel good and motivated to finish my daily chores. I will stay with this brand bc I know it works for me.

I originally became interested in taking this supplement after reading literature on examine.com discussing the well-supported anti-stress and anti-fatigue properties of Rhodiola Rosea. I checked a couple of stores and found very expensive liquid drops, but nothing in pill form. Amazon offers this product, conveniently at the correct dosage mentioned in the articles on examine.com, and at a very reasonable price.Per the directions on the bottle, I take one pill before breakfast and one pill before lunch. After about three weeks of supplementing, I noticed two very pronounced effects. Firstly, I wasn't nearly as tired as I usually was in the afternoon. I've always had an issue in the 2 to 3PM range where my energy and alertness levels drop off a cliff. I feel like I'm more productive in the afternoons since supplementing regularly. Secondly, I've kept track of my strength training workout numbers for all of 2013, and I noticed that I was putting up higher reps during workouts and skipping workouts less often after regularly supplementing. I have graphs to prove it! I assume at least some of that can be attributed to the supplement, as I haven't had any other significant lifestyle change.Generally, I feel more positive throughout the day. It's hard to tangibly describe, but I feel less argumentative and have a more positive outlook on what's happening around me. Even more interesting is that if I miss a few days, like when I leave my bottle of pills at work over the weekend, I have caught myself in a grumpy mood wondering "what's wrong", before remembering that I haven't taken the Rhodiola Rosea lately.I'm very skeptical of supplements in general, and I don't use any other pills, not even a multivitamin. However, I do think that the Rhodiola Rosea makes me feel a little better than I normally would, so I'm going to keep taking it.Regarding this specific product, again the dosage is perfect for what I've read, the capsules are easy to swallow, and the taste is tolerable.

It was good. Nothing too dramatic but I definitely noticed a mild increase in energy.

All good from this company! For years! .... I tasted. Contenrs of capsule and its real deal herb! Very good results as an adaptogen.will buy again.

I take a lot of supplements but this is one that I can really tell a diffrence with - I am a very happy person but have a very stressful lifestyle and tend to stay very tense I think some people call it type A personality lol also I usualy get a small case of the blues at the end of summer there is a word for that but cant remember what it is... anyway I have been taking this for about 2-3 wks now and I take 1 in the morning and another at lunch sometimes if I remeber to do so. I have had a lot of things going on im my life that would normaly have me totaly stressed out and depressed but since taking this I have a sense of calm and just an overall sense of well being - it is going into the fall and I am happy as ever and before my shoulder and neck stayed sore from being so tense - I dont have that now. I have read up on the benifits of this herb and have seen where it can help with better focus and more energy, I cant say that I have experienced that yet but it has defnitly helped with stress, anxiety and depression I would highly reccomend for anyone to give it a try- I think it is sad that Dr's dont perscribe this instead of prozac and many other harmful drugs they use instead.

I have ADD and depression. I was researching ways of increasing serotonin production as a way of treating these two disorders naturally when I came across an article mentioning this as a possible natural supplement to help. I figured I had nothing to lose, really, so I gave it a shot. Here’s the thing: it has some benefits. I noticed a slight increase in mood, but no increases in energy. At all. Whatsoever. But I did also notice that when I took it at lunch time, I slept a lot better at night. So, for me, this wasn’t worth the Add On price I paid, but it wasn’t a total waste of money either. I reckon that this might work better for someone who isn’t a Murphy’s Law of psychopathologies like I am.

I do feel like this is a good product and it does what it is intended to do.
