Rhodiola Root

Rhodiola Root Rhodiola rosea 

Rhodiola Root is a great ingredient for a variety of reason-its an adaptogen and adaptogens are reported to help the body adapt to a resist physical, chemical and environmental stress. Early research suggests it might improve depression and anxiety. Rhodiola Root has also been used traditionally to support increased energy, endurance, strength and mental capacity. Its flavor is an interesting combination of sweet and bitter, also known as bittersweet, with an astringent back flavor. I like to use Rhodiola Root in blends that focus on mood elevation. It helps impart that cared for feeling when its used in our blends. It’s the featured ingredient in Hug in a Mug and in our soon to be released Happy Mint.
