The Science and Pharmacology of Rhodiola Rosea
Laboratory studies have isolated six distinct compounds from the root of Rhodiola rosea including Flavonoids, Phenylpropanoids, Phenylethanol derivatives, Monoterpernes, Triterpenes, and Phenolic acids. The specific phytochemical components that have been shown to exhibit Rhodiola rosea’s broad spectrum of action are the following:
- Rosavin
- Rosarin
- Salidrosides
- Tyrosol
Rhodiola rosea has been identified in clinical analysis as an adaptogen that increases the body’s resistance to a wide range of chemical, biological, and physical stressors. Scientists explain that Rhodiola rosea likely affects multiple body systems to promote emotional well-being, physical endurance, and mental sharpness. Pharmacological studies in vitro and in vivo have demonstrated that Rhodiola rosea stimulates neurotransmitter activity in the Central Nervous System (CNS) and may positively influence Serotonin, Norepinephrine, Dopamine and Acetylcholine availability in neuropathways that regulate mood. Further laboratory analysis has shown that Rhodiola Rosea also enhances permeability of the blood-brain barrier to specific neurotransmitter precursors of Serotonin and Dopamine. Although the exact mechanism of action is not yet fully understood, clinical and laboratory research indicate that Rhodiola rosea may help to promote a healthy neurotransmitter balance and provide positive support for a occasional nervousness, nervous tension, and anxiety as well as a depressed mood and mild to moderate mood changes caused by everyday stress.
