Viridian Rhodiola Rosea Root Extract

Viridian Rhodiola Rosea Root Extract is a standardised adaptogenic herbal supplement derived from the root of Rhodiola rosea, a perennial flowering plant indigenous to the mountainous and Arctic regions of Europe, Asia, and North America. Rhodiola has been revered for centuries in Scandinavian and Russian traditional medicine as a prized tonic for physical and mental endurance, fatigue resistance, and resilience to stress, and has been the subject of extensive modern clinical research validating these traditional applications.

The therapeutic properties of Rhodiola rosea are attributed primarily to its unique bioactive compounds: rosavins (rosavin, rosin, and rosarin — specific to Rhodiola rosea) and salidroside (also called p-tyrosol glucoside). This standardised extract ensures consistent levels of these active compounds in each capsule, delivering reliable and reproducible efficacy. Rhodiola is classified as a true adaptogen — a substance that helps the body adapt to and resist physical, chemical, and biological stressors while normalising physiological functions without causing harm.

Clinical research on Rhodiola rosea has demonstrated significant benefits for fatigue and cognitive function, particularly in individuals experiencing stress-related burnout, mental exhaustion, and impaired concentration. Studies have shown improvements in mental performance, attention, speed of cognitive processes, and accuracy in tasks under stressful conditions. Physical performance research has demonstrated benefits for endurance exercise capacity and reduced perception of exertion.

This supplement contains 100% active ingredients, no artificial fillers, and is suitable for vegans and vegetarians. Produced in the UK to Viridian's strict ethical standards with no GMO ingredients and no animal testing.
