Rhodiola Rosea Supplement 500mg, 120 Vegan Capsules (Third Party Test, Gluten Free, 3% Salidrosides, 1% Rosavins Extract) for Performance, Calming, Motivation by Double Wood

I have used this product for about two weeks with subtle but good results. I take one capsule in the morning and on a few occasions I took a second capsule in the evening. I have not tried two capsules at once and I’ll explain why further down. For an understanding of my physiology and health, I eat very healthy (close to a paleo diet with a few changes) and I’m very active. I take creatine and not on any health medication. I also work and in school.This supplement has a subtle effect on me. This does not have a strong or immediately noticeable result once taken. However, I did notice an increase in stamina and less fatigue when I was doing fast, high incline, hiking (I would say results felt similar to creatine but much less effective). I also felt it helped me feel less fatigued on a few days when I was getting less than my normal amount of sleep. I would like to try this stuff on a night shift rotation but I haven’t had the chance yet.It is important to remember everyone’s physiology is different and other factors like diet and health will impact how a supplement will work for different people. Not everyone is going to get the same result and that is not necessarily the fault of the product (or the person). For me, I noticed a mild improvement in the stamina and reduced fatigue, but I didn’t notice until taking it for a few days. I’m not sure if you need to build this up in the system for a few days for effectiveness but I’m trying to test that now and will update later if I have anything to add.I would caution that if you have a weak or sensitive stomach you should be cautious with Rhodiola Rosea Extract. It doesn’t have a pleasant taste and even though it is in capsule form, it caused a little stomach gas for me on a few occasions and I could smell / taste it which is not pleasant. For this reason I never wanted to take more than one pill at a time. I didn’t have this experience every time, but it happened at least half the time, on an empty stomach or with a meal. Having said that, it is not terrible either and I would argue if you are burning the candle at both ends, this may be effective in helping you balance out. I don’t feel I need this daily but would use building up for finals or as needed.Also, I did not notice cognitive benefits while taking this and studying.

I take B vitamins, D3 and probiotic every day and have for a while to try and stay healthy and have energy. I think they help minimally but nothing super noticeable. I have tried those greens powders and could not notice any difference. I will try to post an update as I have only been taking for a few days but I can honestly say I think this is a game changer for me. I noticed a difference ever since the first day. As many others have stated I found I can only take 1 of these and it needs to be very early in the morning like by 7:30/8am. The first day I took it at 10:30am and then forgot I took it. Later in the afternoon I noticed I was not feeling sluggish at all and actually the opposite then it dawned on me I had take this supplement. I was not able to sleep well that night just wide awake and mind buzzing. I took it early in the morning the next 2 days and sleep was better. I am going to take a break from it over the weekend and see if I feel any different. Also I will add that I am neurodivergent (I don't take medication for this) and I honestly feel like it helping me be more focused and actually able to complete tasks instead of having decision fatigue. I have been very productive the last few days and very good mood. I do get seasonal depression and the daylight is quickly fading here plus it has been overcast and rainy for several days now so normally I would be very lazy and no energy but that has not been the case since taking this supplement. So far I am incredibly impressed. I have always thought I had some hormonal imbalances or something making me have lower energy and the past year I have put on weight that's been very difficult to lose (once I hit 30 it really hit). I am really hoping that continuing this supplement will help keep me more active and being able to complete more projects and tasks which I normally struggle with. I'm also hoping with the increased energy it will help me lose the weight I have gained over the last year. I'll try to post an update in a few weeks but I definitely recommend giving this a try, so far I really like it! I think I actually could use a lower dose. I am curious to see long term if its something your body gets used to and you need more to be as effective or not.

First off, I should mention that I have ADHD and Cyclothymia. This may have affected how the product affected me.I immediately felt the effects of this supplement only 30 minute after taking it. I definitely felt more energetic, but at the same time, it seemed to spike my anxiety. My first memory is feeling jittery. My legs wouldn't stop shaking. I was fairly productive the first day I took it, but I also felt a little nauseous (which can be a side effect I've read about). I can definitely say with certainty that this product works, but it may not be for everybody.

Good product seems to work well so far. It seems to help with weight loss as well. Im still in the experimental stages with it. But so far so good.

It seems to help me with focus and endurance with workouts.

This stuff always works well
