Choosing a Quality Rhodiola Supplement

Not all Rhodiola supplements are created equal. When looking for a high-quality product, consider the following:

• Organic Certification: Dr. Mercola's formula is USDA Organic, meaning it is grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilisers.
• Standardised Extract: Look for a certified content of rosavins (3%) and salidroside (1%) to ensure consistent bioactive levels.
• Purity: This supplement is gluten-free, soya-free, non-GMO, and contains no synthetic ingredients or preservatives.
• Third-Party Testing: Manufactured in facilities following Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) for quality assurance.

The Science of Rhodiola's Active Compounds

Rhodiola rosea contains over 140 active compounds, with rosavins and salidroside being the most studied. Rosavins are believed to help modulate the body's stress response, while salidroside may support cellular energy production and antioxidant defences. The 3:1 ratio of rosavins to salidroside in Dr. Mercola's extract mirrors the natural profile of the plant's root, which research suggests may optimise efficacy.*

It can also support mental focus and physical endurance without the uses of stimulants, making it a suitable choice for most adults.
