Ingredients
Organic Rhodiola Rosea Root Powder
Rhodiola, famous in Traditional Medicine for its cellular support properties, shows great promise in the treatment of stress, fatigue and endurance.
Rhodiola rosea, also known as “golden root,” is an ancient herbal remedy being studied closely by modern scientists. It has demonstrated a remarkable ability to support cellular energy metabolism. It positively affects brain function, depression and heart health. It fights fatigue and can enhance endurance. Researchers are especially excited about its potential role in natural stress reduction.
Rhodiola acts like a hormone thermostat, especially in terms of cortisol – one of our main stress hormones – that fluctuates when we’re stressed. Rhodiola has the ability to raise or lower cortisol seemingly as needed; reducing stress in the process.
A study of 56 doctors concluded that Rhodiola,“exerts an anti-fatigue effect that increases mental performance, particularly the ability to concentrate and decreases cortisol response to awakening stress in burnout patients with fatigue syndrome.”
Rhodiola may help increase stamina and endurance by increasing red blood cell count and lowering oxidative damage. It can boost EPO – erythropoietin – which stimulates RBC production.
A 2015 paper compared Rhodiola to Zoloft, concluding that it was not quite as effective but had “significantly fewer adverse events”, was” better tolerated” and had a ”favorable risk to benefit ratio for individuals with mild to moderate depression.”

I take one rhodiola root capsule every morning on an empty stomach. By day 3, I felt the difference. I was less anxious (during presidential election week), and had more positive energy the majority of the day.
I was already taking pantothenic acid, but it was not doing the job by itself. The addition of this one little capsule has made all the difference.
I have not needed any additional supplements for my anxiety since I began taking it.
A bonus benefit that I was not expecting, is that I’m no longer feeling the highs and lows of my blood sugar levels, which has been a problem since my diagnosis of Diabetes 2 just over a year ago.
This is very exciting.
I am a customer for life.

I purchased this to help metabolize my stress better and hopefully to improve my hair loss. Ive only been taking it for a couple weeks and haven’t noticed any difference in my hair but I really notice the energy boost I get after taking it in the morning. I’ll probably continue just for that reason.

I have been combing the KOS Organic Lion’s Mane Powder, with the KOS Ashwagandha Powder, and Organic Rhodiola Root Powder together. I scoop each mix it together in my smoothie. Since I add 1 scoop of each into my mix, I only use half for each smoothie or it gets quite chalky. It is quite expensive, but I think it is worth it. It is essentially a 3 month supply for all 3, but if you split it half, it will be a 6 month supply.

I simply cannot tolerate the muddy consistency and taste. KOS Rhodiola probably is a good product. Price is good. Wish it mixed better in my coffee!

I make a tea for depression. In order to make the tea with the correct ratio of herbal ingredients, I need to use whole plant material instead of extracts. This stuff is the best value I’ve found so far, and I legitimately feel better than I have in years. I set other people complaining that it doesn’t dissolve in water–of course it doesn’t, it’s just powdered root lol not a water-soluble extract.

I work full time as a Pilates + Fitness teacher, I’m always running around and working out. I have to be on my A game at all times. I need to be super focused and have clarity when I’m with my clients. I decided to invest in this powder, it looks weird but it doesn’t taste weird or funky.. It actually doesn’t taste like anything lol. I would recommend definitely adding veggies and fruits to your smoothie. Overall I have lots of energy!

My anxiety is better and my mental acuity is sharper with the use of this product. It doesn’t mix very well with apple juice but will eventually with slight residue left in glass once done. It is worth the money because I feel better so a Big hit for me.

I live at altitude, so having a product that increases my red blood cell count allows me to breathe easier and sleep better. I recommend this for anyone living at high altitudes that is having breathing problems.

I love this product especially with the ashwagandha I feel like they both go hand in hand and I am feeling a lot more calm although i still feel tired so I’m going to be patient with it since I barely started a few days ago. Another reason why I’m giving this 4 stars and mainly the reason why I am is because of texture and how it doesnt dissolve as easy as the other products such as the cordyceps or inulin and ashwagandha it’s almost has the feeling of very fine sand in your mouth and your teeth. I also need to keep stirring and add more water so I can try to consume every bit of the powder. Keep in mind I only drink this product with water at nightime along with the ashwagandha because I feel the effects sooner. So if you dont think you can tolerate it than I reccomend you to smoothie it up because you need something thick so you dont feel gritty texture all around your mouth.
PLEASE NOTE
They do have silica sand packets in all their pantry products it is FDA approved but it’s mainly good for areas that are humid so unless you’re not from a dry area like California which is where I am from and luckily KOS is from there too. I would recommend you guys to keep it.

I’m taking this to fight adrenal fatigue. I’ve noticed less fatigue and I’m falling asleep much faster. I’m pairing this with the KOS Ashwagandha and I don’t notice that either change the flavor of my shakes. This is much more ideal than taking pills for me. I love that it’s organic and batch tested.
