History and Science
In Siberia, it is

years." Very little research has been performed on Rhodiola rosea
until 1931. At that time Russian Botanist and nutritionist DR. L.
Utkin discovered that this plant increases sexual potency. And in
1947 Russian scientist Professor Lasarev found that Rhodiola rosea
helped increase the body's natural resistance to different
environmental stresses.
In fact,
all test subjects showed an improvement in their general physical
& mental states after taking only 100mgs a day. It was found
that all the patients with pronounced depression states, of varied
origins, had a positive therapeutic effect.

Rhodiola rosea was found
to be four times less potentially toxic than Korean ginseng even in
high doses. The recommended dosage is 100mgs to 300mgs per
day.
Does It Have Side

They found that the
following side effects could occur in doses above 800mgs a day in
