Rhodiola Rosea Extract
Rhodiola rosea — Arctic root extract standardised to the classic 3:1 rosavin/salidroside ratio, supplied for endurance and fatigue-resistance formulations.
Standardised to the ratio buyers actually formulate against.
Rhodiola rosea root extract is supplied standardised to 3% rosavins and 1% salidroside — the 3:1 ratio most consistently referenced in endurance and fatigue-resistance formulations, rather than a rosavin-only figure that overstates the active profile.
It's sold as a fine powder, and every batch carries a certificate of analysis confirming both markers by HPLC alongside heavy metal, microbial and pesticide screening. See Quality Assurance for the full testing process.
Where this extract typically gets used.
Endurance & stamina formulas
The most common use case — often paired with Cordyceps Militaris in fatigue-resistance and stamina-focused stacks.
Stress-adaptation blends
Also formulated into general stress-support stacks alongside Ashwagandha, where the two extracts' evidence bases differ enough to complement rather than duplicate.

Where it comes from, and how we hold that to a standard.
Trade buyers increasingly need to answer sourcing questions themselves — here's what we can tell you about this specific ingredient.
GMP-certified processing
Processed at a GMP-certified EU facility, audited on our own schedule rather than taken on trust from a spec sheet — see Quality Assurance.
Conservation-conscious sourcing
Rhodiola rosea faces genuine wild-harvesting pressure across parts of its native range. We source a wild-and-cultivated blend specifically to reduce reliance on wild stock.
Established EU processing partners
Sourced through ongoing relationships with EU-based processors rather than opportunistic spot-buying, supporting both consistency and traceable origin.
Batch traceability
Every batch is traceable back to its processing facility and source mix — ask if you need the wild/cultivated split documented for a specific batch.

What to know before formulating with this ingredient.
General safety information for trade buyers and formulators — not medical advice, and not a substitute for your own regulatory and safety assessment. See the full Warnings & Safety Information page for the complete catalogue reference.
| Consideration | Detail |
|---|---|
| Stimulant timing | Mild stimulant effect — best avoided in evening or sleep-support formulations. |
| Medication interactions | May interact with MAOI (monoamine oxidase inhibitor) medication. Flag clearly where relevant to your formulation. |
| Mental health conditions | Stimulating effect means general caution for anxiety disorders or bipolar-spectrum conditions; not typically recommended without professional guidance in these cases. |
| Pregnancy & breastfeeding | Not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, consistent with most adaptogens lacking extensive safety data in these populations. |

Rhodiola Rosea, answered.
It's the ratio most consistently referenced in Rhodiola research and the specification buyers most often ask for by name. A rosavin-only figure without a stated salidroside content usually signals a less rigorously standardised extract.
Supply is a wild and cultivated blend sourced from the EU, standardised to the same 3% rosavin / 1% salidroside specification regardless of source mix. Ask if you need confirmation of the exact sourcing split for a specific batch.
By HPLC, per batch, with both markers reported separately on the certificate of analysis — not a combined figure that could obscure a low salidroside content.
It follows the standard Starter tier from 1–10kg/month — see Wholesale & Trade Accounts for the full tier structure.
See the Safety & Risk Information above for known considerations, particularly around MAOI medication. This isn't medical advice — consumer-facing products should carry appropriate guidance to consult a healthcare professional.
