Rhodiola (Rhodiola rosea) is an astringent herbal adaptogen that has been used by Olympic athletes to boost endurance and performance.
Known as the "artcic root," Rhodiola grows in high altitude regions of Asia and Europe, making it a hearty and sturdy ally. It has been shown to support remediating effects against stress.
For these reason, Rhodiola may be an excellent source of adaptogenic support, bolstering against stress, rebuilding recovery and potentially enhancing exercise performance.
The astringent nature of Rhodiola may help tone our system, tightening junctions between cell walls and our muscular systems, retaining hydration and may be helpful with individuals who experience consistent sweating.
