Arctic Root ( Rhodiola rosea)?

Question

I've been taking the Herbal Supplement Arctic Root for about a month in a half. The website says that it is the only product that contains an extract of Rhodiola rosea SHR-5. I brought Rhodiola Rosea from GNC today. I was wondering if anyone knew if there was a difference between the two.

Answer 1

Arctic Root  andRhodiola rosea are one and the same, however:

Look on your label and make sure it says EXTRACT.  If it does, it's the same, if it says rhodiola rosea powder, it will not be the same or near as useful.
