I just started taking these supplement and already feel the difference - I became calm, confident, feel more energy, have plans and want to implement them. I am taking 1 capcule only, cause I tried 2 and had some head spasms. May be it was a coincidence but I do not want to risk.

Oh my Gawd I feel SO BADLY... again. Right now my head feels very congested, and I have a slight headache. I'm nauseated. I feel like I'm running a low-grade temperature, and my cheeks are very warm to the touch. Basically, I feel like I'm coming down with something. I tried taking this brand of Rhodiola again, and again, and again. I've been experimenting with the dosing 150mg - 450 mg, for the past 3 weeks. Last night, I again took one 450 mg capsule. Usually I feel the effect within 30 min. I become more motivated, and have a pleasant sense of well-being. I will say that the effect was the MOST POWERFUL the first time I consumed Rhodiola, one capsule, a few days after receiving the shipment. The effect came on gradually, within 30 minutes, and I felt SO HAPPY, almost too happy, something very alien to me, especially since I've become menopausal. I became SUPER motivated and energized. As I'm always careful trying new herbals or medications, I was thankful that I didn't take 2 capsules, as the experience would have been too overwhelming... too much of a stimulant boost, and I could see how close one would be to experiencing a terrific headache or pounding heart rate. However, when I awoke the next morning, I felt TERRIBLE. My nose felt congested, and I thought I was coming down with a sinus infection or bad cold. I didn't take any of the Rhodiola for about 4 days afterward. Also, I only felt badly that one day. In the next few days, I did not come down with a cold or sinus infection; thus, I attributed my "hangover" to the Rhodiola. During this time, I again researched Rhodiola, but could not find anything about the hangover effect I experienced. Thus, I figured maybe I just have to get used to Rhodiola some more, and that the hangover effects would eventually subside.Remembering the very powerful, pleasant, first time effect, I only took about 150 mg the second time (I carefully measured out 3 piles, and weighed each one), but did not feel ANY benefit of that dose. Again, my nose felt congested the next day, so much so that I couldn't even smell the scent of a powerful Yankee candle burning! Yet, I took 1/2 of the capsule the next day, and experienced a sense of well-being. No profound happiness or sense of motivation. I also continued with the feeling of having cold symptoms, and refrained from Rhodiola dosing for 5 days. Remembering the nice feeling, and looking for a motivation boost to power walk 8 miles, I again tried Rhodiola, this time taking the entire capsule. Although I felt motivated to work out and had the sense of well being, I was surprised the feelings were NOT nearly as powerful as the first time I tried Rhodiola. However, I suffered with the familiar, crappy 'coming down with something,' low grade temperature feelings again the next day.Call me a fool, but yes, I again took another Rhodiola capsule last night. I told myself that I should be building somewhat of a tolerance to this herb, and that the next-day, negative effects must subside at some time. Well, I became motivated to do things, and experienced a sense of well-being; however, the feelings never were as strong, at any point, as with the first dose I had tried. So here I am right now, miserable and physically feel unable to do anything, but write about my agony. I will not develop a tolerance to the hangover feelings, as I feel as bad, or worse than I had felt the last time. I've done more research again, on the negative side effects of Rhodiola, and found some articles that cite the strain of Rhodiola, or preparation as factors.All I know is that I will not be taking this brand anymore. I really wanted it to work for me, because the sense of well-being and motivation to do things is wonderful. This brand delivers in that department; however, I just cannot deal with the crappy, hangover feelings the entire next day. I definitely could never take this supplement on days that I am working, at my job! I'm going back to bed now...

There is a strange chemical smell inside the bottle, and it lasts so long even though after 3 months! I feel unsafe to consume it and consider to discard the other three bottles.By the way, I did not recognize any different after taking it for almost 3 months. In comparison to the other two brands of Rhodiola, this product does not worth to give it a try in any aspect!!
