Rhodiola Rosea: Siberian Tonic Herb
Rhodiola is a root of the Rhodiola rosea plant, which is native to Siberia.
Rhodiola was valued by the traditional aboriginal peoples of the region as a
strengthening tonic that was believed to increase physical and mental stamina.
In modern times, rhodiola has been researched for its adaptogenic properties.
The term adaptogen was coined by the Russian scientist Lazarev in 1947. Adaptogens
are defined as substances that show a nonspecific activity in helping to support
our body's natural defenses. Used to enhance health, vitality and mood, they
support the normal mechanisms our bodies have for maintaining a healthy balance
or homeostasis in the face of physical and emotional stress. Adaptogens must
be safe and must not influence body functions more than necessary to achieve
their desired effects.
Dynamics of Stress
According to the pioneering medical research of Dr. Hans Selye, our bodies are
able to respond to stressful situations via a process in which the sympathetic
nervous system stimulates the hypothalamus-pituitaryadrenal gland axis.However,
chronic stress can exhaust our resources and compromise our ability to respond,
leading to nonresistance and diminished vitality. Although the exact mechanism
of action of adaptogens is not known, evidence suggests that they enhance the
general adaptive response of an organism, primarily by influencing the pituitary-adrenal
gland axis.
Modern Research Focuses on Glucosides
Most research on rhodiola's benefits has focused on a pair of glucosides designated
as rosavidin (also known as rosavin) and salidroside. These primary compounds
have been studied for their ability to increase resistance to various stressors
in animals. In these studies, antistress, endocrine and central nervous system
effects have been reported. In one human trial, 10 mg of salidrosides, administered
orally, was shown to enhance mental function.
