Key Facts

Rhodiola is an adaptogenic herb that helps your brain manage stress by modulating key neurotransmitters like serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine
Supports mental clarity and sustained energy without the crash or drowsiness that can come with stimulants
Works by helping your nervous system adapt to physical and psychological stressors, rather than masking symptoms

Ingredients

Rhodiola extract (root) from Rhodiola rosea, microcrystalline cellulose, hypromellose capsule, leucine, and silicon dioxide.

Why We Chose This

Rhodiola addresses a real gap: most people reach for caffeine or prescription stimulants when stress and fatigue hit, but those often leave you jittery or dependent. This Thorne formulation delivers 100 mg of standardized rhodiola root extract, a clinically studied dose that supports your brain's natural stress-response system without artificial stimulation. The adaptogenic mechanism means rhodiola helps your body recalibrate under pressure, supporting both mental alertness and physical endurance when you need it most. Thorne's sourcing and purity standards make this a reliable choice for anyone looking to manage stress and sustain focus through demanding periods.
