Best supplement I've ever taken
I"d never heard of rhodiola until this summer.  One of the health & fitness bloggers I follow, recommended it for decreased pain and increased energy.<br /><br />Well, he certainly knew what he was talking about!  This rhodiola rose organic extract powder is the best supplement I've taken -- and I've taken plenty, especially following two back surgeries and a persistent TMJ issue.  Fish oil, magnesium, turmeric, vitamins, etc. -- all good for what they are, but nothing seems to compare with this rhodiola.<br /><br />My morning ritual now is to take 1/6 of a teaspoon of this powder and mix it into my morning hot coffee.  It takes some persistent mixing to get it to dissolve, and to tell the truth some of it never actually does dissolve, but I drink the whole cup down.<br /><br />About 30 minutes after drinking it, the rhodiola does its thing.<br /><br />What happens?  First, I get more energy.  Yes, I just had the coffee, but this is a different kind of energy than what I get from caffeine.  Peaceful & productive energy, not too much, just right.<br /><br />Second, I get some focus.  I'm as ADD-addled as the next person (maybe more so), and have a lot I want to accomplish.  The increased focus (for work, for working out, for playing the piano) is more than welcome.<br /><br />Finally, I feel a LOT better.  The TMJ (mostly jaw & neck clicking) settles way, way down.  No back pain.  No headache.<br /><br />Someone wrote recently that you can build up a tolerance to rhodiola, and it stops being effective.  I've been using this for three months and that hasn't begun to happen.  I pray that it doesn't, because I really plan to keep using this.  Maybe forever.
