Rhodiola Crenulata

Add one serving to any warm tea, milk, coffee. Take daily or as needed.

Rhodiola does have a unique, bitter taste. Bitterness has an important place in our diet, one that is complemented well with creamy or sweet things if the flavor does not appeal to you. Start with 1/4 tsp along with some nut milk, honey and ghee, or add to other bitter things like coffee or hot chocolate.

Please note, Rhodiola powder is particularly sensitive to moisture. Make sure you keep the lid on tight, never use a wet spoon, and try to consume the contents within 3 months of opening.

Please make sure lid is on securely

Rhodiola crenulata benefits are largely credited to Salidroside, which is believed to have neuroprotective properties, promote feelings of well being and support cellular health. Salidroside, also known as rhodioloside, is a glucoside form of tyrosol. Some studies suggest that Salidroside may have adaptogenic properties, which explains its historic use for a variety of purposes and why Rhodiola crenulata benefits may vary from person to person.

Salidroside has been shown in a few studies to promote energy, promote feelings of well being, and reduce appetite. Salidroside may also support nerve health as a few studies found that that salidroside seems to support the nerve repair process and help protect nerve cells as well as promote cognitive function. This Rhodiola Crenulata extract contains a minimum 3% salidroside content.
