Toniiq Triple-Strength 600mg Rhodiola Rosea - 120 Capsules - 5% Salidroside Concentrated Extract - Highly Purified and Bioavailable

Love it, scientificly great if your trying to find a actual potent supplement instead of just Misleading Labels with percentages and numbers to trick you into thinking their product is strong when it reality it's just Normal Normal strength with weird math to make it sound cool and strong, this stuff is actual potent Scientific extract that's stronger then other stuff, very impressed, and you get a lot of Capsules too so it's great

Very potent and effective. This supplement definitely increases my focus.

Need a little extra energy and focus after a terrible nights sleep? Rhodiola is an adaptogenic herb treasured by indigenous Europeans for hundreds, (maybe thousands) of years. It is said the Vikings used this on campaigns to pillage and loot to fight off that pesky fatigue one can get on long campaigns of looting and pillaging. Nowadays, you may be looting and pillaging on behalf of multinational corporations, but the fatigue is still real! The packaging recommends 2 capsules, but it really depends on how sensitive your system is. I get a little too buzzy off of 2, 1 is my sweet spot. (I am also sensitive to caffeine, so, maybe that is why, you will want to judge for yourself based on YOUR biochemisty. Clearly, I do not have enough Viking in my background to handle a full dose.I keep a bottle of this at work for foggy head and fatigue emergencies, it does for me what caffeine does for some others, (with much more clear mental focus) but for me, with a lot less of the jittery creepy feeling I get from caffeine.

UPDATE: I received a response from the manufacturer that included a cert and an explanation for the smell. They had changed suppliers since that issue was noted but there was no safety concerns.I’m giving this 3-stars and it may go up. Half of the serving brings on a pretty noticeable headache for me. This seems to be a common side effect of Rhodiola but for those who experience this they need to reduce the dosage.Due to the higher concentration of Salidroside than other brands this makes sense. Going to start taking half of a capsule and see if the headache goes away.The part that takes away a star is the strong pungent smell (like isopropyl) and accompanying “burp taste” a little worse than old fish oil. I’ve read responses that it’s due to the higher concentrations but still not something pleasant.I’m hoping for the nootropic effect on my concentration and memory and would like to stack this with bacopa. If the reduced dose alleviates the headache and I can tell a real nootropic benefit I would definitely boost this to 4-stars but the small and aftertaste alone would always deduct 1-star from my review.UPDATE: I received another batch from Subscribe & Save, even though I wasn't wanting it. So I go and crack it open and smell it and NOTHING. Not a hint of that isopropyl smell from the other batch I have. Since I'm taking half of a capsule and confirmed the taste matches the smell I'm going to see what kind of taste this second batch has in it. I figured all of Toniq's Rhodiola had this smell to it and was just part of the mushroom but now I'm a bit concerned they're not properly monitoring/auditing their suppliers processes. Would like to see a cert for concentration of Salidroside and impurities now.

This is my very first experience taking rhodiola rosea. I purchased this product in hopes of helping to elevate or even out my serotonin, dopamine and norepinephrine levels. I have PTSD, major depressive disorder, anxiety and panic disorder, post-concussion syndrome and ADHD for which I am prescribed a few different medications. My adhd medication is the one that I've found really makes the most difference, not only in my ability to focus, follow through to complete my tasks, help to keep my mind from racing in circles, etc, but also in my mood, helping me feel more motivated while calming my anxiety and even relieving my chronic pain symptoms stemming from spinal injuries...helping me just feel pretty normal. Thing is, is that I dont want to take it every day in order to keep my dose on the smaller side and to avoid dependency. But when I don't take it, my depression and anxiety symptoms are terrible. I wanted to try rhodiola rosea until my other medications are able to be changed or adjusted, thinking/hoping that it may help ease some of my symptoms on those off days. I've tried many other supplements mostly without luck. The only one that I had success with is just too expensive to keep up with. I am very pleasantly surprised that after only a few days, I've noticed some actual benefit from this product. Of course it is not the same as taking the medication, but on the off days, my mood is definitely elevated, I am not teary, dreadful, lethargic or anxious and the pit that I often feel in my stomach goes away. No jitters or other side effects... feels very natural! I am pretty impressed with my results... this one is a keeper!

Easy to swallow, flavor & value for the money are relative. I've tried 2 caps 3 x's daily; morning, midafternoon & 2 in the evening, but (honestly) everyone's body is unique. Daily stressors aren't always consistently the same. So "play it by ear," and adjust accordingly. More does not necessarily equate to a better outcome. I've also found you simply cannot go wrong with always including, (if not as a stand-alone,) good 'ol ashwagandha. How much? Again, everybody is different & so are our daily, weekly, and (yes,) those "curve-ball" events that can cause us to take (sometimes,) more. Go with the flow of these "calming agents." Don't fall for the "more strength, the better it must be," gimmick. Lastly, be realistic with yourself. Take inventory of what's at the root of your stress. If you're overtaxing your body with 80 hr work weeks, not eating healthy & very little restful sleep, do you really expect a pill to compensate for the long run? Tony.
