Rhodiola 500mg

Stress support, fatigue reduction, mood enhancement.. The 500mg dose of Rhodiola extract is a good amount for general use. However, without standardization to active compounds like rosavins and salidrosides, the actual potency is unknown. This prevents it from reaching a higher 'clinical dose' score.

8.0/10
EXCELLENT

This is a good single-ingredient Rhodiola product, but its potency isn't guaranteed.
