Rhodiola rosea, a flowering herb native to high-altitude regions in Europe, Asia, and parts of North America, has been used for thousands of years as an adaptogen to promote stress resilience and support adrenal function. Known for its floral-scented, purple-hued root, it is traditionally brewed into tea, tinctured, or blended into herbal infusions. Rhodiola has become increasingly popular worldwide, which has led to concerns about overharvesting in the wild. To help ensure sustainability, we support organic cultivation practices for rhodiola root.
 
This herb, also called "golden root" or "roseroot," has a rich history in folk medicine, particularly in Siberia and Tibet, where it was used for enhancing stamina, supporting mental performance, and promoting fertility. Rhodiola gained attention in the West, especially after being used by Russian Olympic athletes and cosmonauts. The root’s adaptogenic properties have been extensively studied in various countries since the 1960s, though it has only recently become popular in English-speaking regions.
 
Rhodiola grows in harsh, rocky soils at high altitudes and is considered an energetically cold herb, with a sweet, slightly bitter taste. As demand increases, efforts are being made to protect wild rhodiola populations by promoting sustainable cultivation practices.
