Rhodiola Alcohol-Free Tincture (1 : 4)

Rhodiola (Rhodiola rosea) tincture – made from the roots

What is Rhodiola (Rhodiola rosea)?

The fragrant medicinal plant with its melodious name had long fallen into obscurity in Central Europe, even though Rhodiola played an important role here as early as the 17th century.

Rhodiola rosea, belonging to the Crassulaceae family, is primarily found in arctic regions and mountainous areas of Eurasia. The small plant reaches a maximum height of 35 cm and can easily be recognized as a succulent thanks to its distinctive leaves. Its tiny clustered flowers exude a wonderful scent, further revealing its botanical kinship. But it is not only the flowers that delight the senses – when cut, both the roots and the above-ground stems release a rose-like fragrance, giving the plant its name “rose root.”

For the production of our tinctures, we follow the traditional knowledge of Nordic folk medicine and use only finely ground roots. Most of these are sourced from wild collections in Russia. However, we strive to obtain all raw materials from controlled cultivation in order to preserve wild Rhodiola populations. Because for us, not only your well-being but also the health of our planet matters.

The forgotten adaptogen

In Scandinavia and Russia, Rhodiola has always been regarded as an extraordinary adaptogen. Adaptogens are plants that gently yet effectively influence the body’s stress response and help the organism build better resilience. In Siberia, Rhodiola is even called the “golden root,” highlighting its high value. In Nordic folk medicine, the herb has been used to enhance concentration and memory and was also applied in cases of vitality and potency concerns.

The indigenous peoples of the Altai mountains also valued Rhodiola highly, using it primarily against persistent fatigue, weakness, and to support both mental and physical strength.

This knowledge was also present in German-speaking regions. Rhodiola is mentioned in Leonhard Fuchs’ herbal book as an important tonic and a trusted helper against headaches.

Rhodiola contains a wide range of valuable constituents, including phenolic glycosides such as salidroside and rosavin, tyrosol, phytamines, tannins, flavonoids, organic acids, phytosterols, polysaccharides, and essential oils.
