"I'm generally reluctant to overhype herbs," says Mark Blumenthal, executive director of the American Botanical Council,
in Austin, Texas, which published a monograph on rhodiola in its journal HerbalGram. "But the claims for rhodiola
are backed up by an impressive amount of scientific research. This really is a kind of super-herb, which affects many
different kinds of body processes and offers many different benefits."

Quotes/Notes:
Dr. Mehmet Oz interviews Chris Kilham (professor of ethnobotany at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst and author of 13 books)...
"Rhodiola rosea is a plant native to Siberia that radically reduces cortisol levels in the blood, thereby reducing stress
and enhancing sexual function, Chris says. According to Chris, dosages between 100 and 300 milligrams a day have
been proven effective in human studies. Moreover, Chris says rhodiola rosea enhances brain function, mood,
cardiovascular function and immune function, and boosts energy, stamina and endurance. "When you take it, you
feel it, and you feel good," says Chris, who takes it every day. "I feel more energetic, more
lively, more clear minded."

Quotes:
"When you look past the hype and talk to the experts, two herbs stand out
as stars (rhodiola rosea and cordyceps sinensis) and another (panax ginseng) looks
like a pretty good bet, too.
All are adaptogens, a class of natural substances with a unique ability to restore
equilibrium throughout the body. They won’t give you a quick fix; because they
affect many aspects of your body’s energy-producing system, it takes a while for
the full effects to kick in. But once they do, the benefits can be substantial."

Quotes:
"Adaptogens are the name of the game,” says Julie Plunkett, a medical herbalist and
certified nutritionist in San Diego. “They are nonspecific agents that prevent and reduce
the damaging effects that stress has on the body.” Any physical activity out of the norm, such
as doing your first 15-mile run, impacts the body, and these five herbs can help it cope. "
