Pure Encapsulations Rhodiola Rosea - for Occasional Stress, Endurance & Fatigue Relief* - with Adaptogens - Gluten Free & Vegan - 180 Capsules

It works exactly as hoped. One 100 mg capsule in the morning on an empty stomach, and it hastens shaking off morning brain fog. A second one taken two hours later extends my energy without any feelings like caffeine buzz. A third one between 3 and 4 pm, if needed, staves off mental fog and low energy, keeping my motivation going in to the early evening, without side effects. If I were to take three in the early evening instead of one at a time during the day, I would become calm and relaxed, which is good for anxiety and sleep. The effects are subtle sensations, yet very much appearant in effect. Whether or not these would be someone else's experiences, I do not know. For me though, it is exactly as research suggests. I highly recommend this brand, and supplimen. ***UPDATE*** I have now finished my first bottle of Pure Encapsulation's Rhodiola Rosea, and it worked good on my energy level, anxiety, and depression. I've found that for me, sometimes it takes as much as 600 mg through out the day to feel therapeutic effects. This does not make me think less of the product, more a statement of how I use it. In fact, this addition to my review is to further endorse this brand! As I came close to the end if my first bottle of 90, 100mg capsules, I decided to shop for a less expensive alternative, and since I'm using higher dosage, decided to try NOW Foods' 60, 500 mg package. For the price of the Pure Encapsulation 90, 100 mg, I got two bottles for 60, 500 mg from NOW Foods. After taking the NOW Foods for a week, I am finding little to no therapeutic effect - even at 1000 mg per day! The difference in effect is so major, that I will not bother using any more of the NOW Foods product, and have just ordered more Pure Encapsulations! I've found they have a 180, 100 mg bottle for $30.30, and with Amazon Prime, no shipping cost. Considering the relief I receive from this brand, $30.30 per month is a reasonable cost for such a helpful medication - with no side effects. I can not emphasize enough what a help this brand is for my anxiety, depression, and energy level! This may not be everyone's experience, however it is mine, and I am gladly sharing it with anyone who may be wondering if different brands work differently. NOW Foods seems to be reviewed as good by some people, but my results were not positive, and Pure Encapsulations does work for me exactly as the best reviews perport.

Pure Encapsulations Rhodiola Rosea is impressively potent and high quality. I noticed a real boost in calm focus and overall resilience to stress without any negative side effects. It’s also helped improve my sleep quality — I feel more rested and balanced. The capsules are a good size and easy to swallow. The price is on the higher side, but the purity, strength, and consistent results make it worth every penny. If you want a reliable, clean Rhodiola supplement with noticeable calming and mood-stabilizing effects, this one is excellent.

I take one of these right when waking up, on an empty stomach, as part of my daily supplement routine. I absolutely love them as I feel clean, non-jittery, energy and mental clarity when I take them. I looked specifically for a capsule that contained 3% Rosavins and 1% Salidroside, and the Pure Encapsulations is exactly that. Great product and I will continue to use them.

No side effects but a calming noticed

I take one capsule after a night of drinking alcohol and it helps to take the edge off the next morning. I'm not quite sure why, maybe it just allows for better sleep.

Make sure you drink enough water when taking it. After that, it works great!

I gave three stars because it's effective. However, it spiked my blood pressure and gave me negative side effects like nausea, feeling flush, and severe migraines with sensitivity to light. My body didn't handle it well.

Works!
