Rhodiola
RhodiolaCommon names:Golden Root, Rhodiola rosea, Roseroot- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.

Comments about GNC Herbal Plus Standardized® Rhodiola:
Initially took this because it was recommended in a women's health magazine as a remedy to help manage anxiety. I don't know how long specifically it took to work since it's been a few months now but I definitely feel more calmed down and less frazzled. Didn't realize it also gives a little boost of energy so that was an added plus to supplement my workouts.

Comments about GNC Herbal Plus Standardized® Rhodiola:
I was talking to the lady that works in the store about stress, she mentioned Rhodiola. I bought it (super skeptical) and my goodness, I am really pleased, I am going through a lot right now, and I felt a difference right away after taking the first one!!!!! It really calms me down, and while I do not take it every day, (forget some times), it really relieves stress and anxiousness! (Does not solve problems, unfortunately, :) but I felt that it does better than Xanax!!!!

Comments about GNC Herbal Plus Standardized® Rhodiola:
I tried this for stress relief. When first taking it, it made me jumpy and more anxious with racing heart and feelings of palpitations, this lasted about 1 to 2 weeks. I stuck it out through these initial side effects and continued taking for maybe 8 to 10 weeks. I felt no difference, my stress was the same and my focus unchanged. I do not recommend this as it did not work for me.

I took this because I heard it could help with stress and mental focus boy was I wrong! This made my heart jumpy and made me feel weird. The complete opposite of what I wanted. I was looking to de-stress, not get wired. Returning. Note I only took one pill.
