Vitals Rhodiola LFThe plant genus rhodiola consists of more than 130 species. The best-known and most researched species is Rhodiola rosea or rose root, which grows in cold Siberia, among other places. Rhodiola has been used as an herbal remedy for over 2000 years. The high-quality extract Rhodiolife® in Vitals' Rhodiola-LF contains no less than 5% rosavins and 1.8% salidroside, the main active substances in rhodiola.
Rhodiolife® from Nektium
Vitals uses the high-quality extract Rhodiolife® from the Spanish producer Nektium for Rhodiola-LF, a market leader in rhodiola extracts. Nektium is one of the few companies that has official permission from the Russian government to sustainably harvest Rhodiola rosea in the pristine Altai Mountains in Siberia and export it to Spain.
Nektium pays exceptional attention to processing the plant in the best possible way, ensuring that the full spectrum of active substances is preserved. Through extraction with water and alcohol, a high concentration of the most important components is also achieved. The high percentage of rosavins (5%) and salidroside (1.8%) compared to many other rhodiola extracts on the market is unique.
Because Rhodiola rosea is a very popular herb, it can be subject to fraud. For example, it may be replaced with another species from the rhodiola family that does not have the same effects. Therefore, Nektium checks with a DNA test during each production whether it is indeed Rhodiola rosea and analyzes whether the extract contains the correct active substances in the right amounts. In addition to the DNA test, the presence of rosavins proves that the product indeed consists of Rhodiola rosea. With Rhodiola-LF, you can be sure that you have a high-quality and effective extract in your hands!
