Overwork, mental exhaustion, stress, and the resulting lack of energy, irritability, and weakened immunity are the inevitable part of our fast-paced, rushing lifestyle. In the long run, all these conditions can have serious and serious consequences for our mental and physical health. Long-term stress increases the level of inflammation in the body, the risk of developing anxiety, depression, overweight, mental dullness, sleep disorders and sexual dysfunction. In order to be able to adapt to the increased expectations of our environment, we need the help of highly effective medicinal plants and modern protection techniques.Rhodiola (rose root, golden root) is a special herb native to the high arctic parts of Europe and Asia. It has long been known among Soviet scientists that, among other things, this plant effectively energizes, reduces mental fatigue, and can be used excellently to restore physical and mental concentration during periods of stress.Holixer™ holy basil extract Holy basil (Tulsi) has a long tradition in Ayurvedic medicine. in medicine. It supports the body’s adaptation to stressful situations, improves the quality of sleep, and helps achieve physical and mental balance.
What symptoms and conditions can Rhodiola help us with?
– In supporting the optimal functioning of the adrenal gland
– In alleviating the symptoms of “adrenal fatigue”, chronic stress, balancing the cortisol level. Possible symptoms: lack of energy in the morning (e.g., starting the day without caffeine), sleep disorders, irritability, frustration, mood swings, concentration difficulties, “foggy” thinking, decreased libido, abdominal obesity, insulin resistance, increased desire for salty foods and snacks.
– Enhancing energy and increasing physical performance
– In preserving fertility (increased stress negatively affects progesterone levels and ovarian function)
– In the complementary treatment of hypothyroidism
– In the general support of the immune system
Restoration of mental concentration:
Rhodiola (golden root, rose root) reduces fatigue and restores mental functions. In the case of overworked and stressed individuals (doctors working the night shift, students preparing for exams, company managers), there was a significant improvement in fatigue, neuromotor performance, sensory and cognitive functions, even in the case of treatment during the continuous existence of stress.
These results were observed as early as two hours after consuming a dose of Rhodiola, Siberian Ginseng and Schisandra. No detectable side effects were reported in either this or other trials examining the effects of Rhodiola.
Protection against stress and anxiety:
Rhodiola also shows promise in alleviating stress-induced symptoms such as anxiety and loss of appetite. Rhodiola can reduce the symptoms and severity of generalized anxiety disorder. This problem involves excessive and frequent worrying about everyday things, and its symptoms include difficulty concentrating, irritability, muscle tension, sleep disturbances, and concerns about problem-solving. According to a study of young to middle-aged women who worked in a psychologically stressful environment, performance on stressful cognitive tasks improved in terms of attention, speed and accuracy. Clinical studies support the effectiveness of holy basil in protecting against all-day and acute stress situations. During the tests, it was observed that the amount of cortisol measured in hair and saliva decreased significantly.
To overcome sleep disorders:
Rhodiola has been used for centuries in Russia and Scandinavia to relieve the symptoms of insomnia. Rhodiola helps older people fall asleep faster and ensure the right amount and quality of sleep. In a study of men with sleep disorders, Rhodiola increased the amount of time spent in REM sleep, decreased the amount of time spent fully awake per night, and significantly improved sleep cycles. Furthermore, a better blood oxygen supply was also observed during sleep, which is a key parameter of sleep duration.Studies conducted with holy basil have successfully shown that it improves sleep efficiency.
Increasing endurance and physical performance:
Rhodiola species support prolonged exercise by increasing oxygen uptake and reducing muscle damage. Used in the long term, they increase the energy storage capacity and the blood oxygen level before exercise, which enables longer and more efficient exercise. Russian athletes have long used adaptogens to increase their physical performance. Rhodiola increased blood antioxidant levels and minimized oxidative stress-induced muscle damage in athletes even 24 hours after exhaustive exercise.
Another study reported a later onset of fatigue and significantly increased oxygen delivery to muscle tissue during exercise.
Increase resistance, immunity:
Rhodiola species have direct antibacterial and antiviral effects, which can reduce the risk of infections. For example, Rhodiola rosea inhibits the enzyme that helps the flu virus attach to cells in the respiratory system, reducing the chance that a person will get the flu, even if they have been exposed. In addition, they have an anti-inflammatory effect even in pathological inflammatory conditions, stimulate the appropriate immune response, and increase the immune response to vaccines. They have an antiviral effect against hepatitis C and influenza, they have an antibacterial effect against TB, and after chemotherapy they help restore the immune system together with other adaptogens.
Against brain aging, supporting heart health:
When treated with Rhodiola, nerve cells in the brain’s memory center resist aging-related damage and produce more beneficial neurotransmitters. Both short-term and long-term memory improvements have been reported. Mental performance and mental acuity also improved, even under various stepwise experimental conditions (testing, sleep deprivation). Stress, whether physical or emotional, puts extra strain on the heart muscle and other muscles. According to several studies, Rhodiola has a protective effect on the heart. It can prevent myocardial damage caused by stress and ischemia (oxygen deficiency), cardiac arrhythmia caused by stress and heart attack, and liver damage caused by toxins and oxidative stress.
