Rhodiola rosea?

[firecat]

The OH found an article in Science News about this Russian herb that acts as an antidepressant and general stress reliever. We are not generally big fans of medicinal dietary supplements (although I have used Coffea arabica as an antidepressant and stimulant for decades :-) ) but he seems particularly intrigued by this. Do you have any experience with it?

Definitely sounds interesting ... maybe next time I'm in the natural-food store (I was there about a half hour ago :-)) I'll see if they have some that looks as though it's from a respectable company, and think about whether I feel like trying it.

Thanks! If you try it, let me know how it works for you.
