Rhodiola Rosea Benefits for Anxiety
Rhodiola Rosea is a very effect herb and herbal extract to use for the reduction of anxiety and depression. This herb has been used in traditional Chinese and Greek medicine to decrease stress and boost energy levels.
It works by stimulating serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine, the three neurotransmitters involved in healthy emotional and cognitive function. It's a natural anxiolytic, meaning it works in your body to reduce stress and anxiety. This herb lowers stress, reduces fatigue, and boosts mental and physical performance.
Studies have found that Rhodiola Rosea promotes better cognitive function in people subjected to acute stress. So, if you’re someone who experiences stress (basically any human ever), you can add this herb to your diet during those periods of increased, acute stress.
One of the bonuses of Rhodiola Rosea as an anti-anxiety herb is that it does not just reduce the amount of stress that you’re feeling in the moment. It can help to keep your brain functioning sharply in stressful situations.
Due to the multiple different anti-anxiety mechanisms that it works on, Rhodiola Rosea has been called a superpower for treating depression and anxiety.
Because it can be use in its whole form, we categorize this herb as a natural nootropic.
Natural nootropics are whole foods that enhance cognitive function and performance. You can also find it in extract from as an isolated supplement or as part of a nootropic stack. We always recommend consuming whole food sources for optimal delivery and synergistic effects. You can consume Rhodiola Rosea most readily in tea form.
