Rhodiola
This Thorne Research Rhodiola product is a single-ingredient herbal supplement, providing 100mg of Rhodiola extract per serving. Research suggests Rhodiola is commonly used for adaptogenic properties, which may support the body's response to stress. However, the 100mg dosage is below the amounts typically studied in clinical research for these effects, meaning the primary active ingredient is underdosed. The product has an N+ Score of 54, earning an 'F' grade, indicating a below-average quality assessment, primarily due to the insufficient ingredient dosage. While label transparency is 100% with only one ingredient, the formula completeness and ingredient adequacy scores are low. This product might be considered by individuals seeking a very low dose of Rhodiola, but its effectiveness at this dosage is not well-supported by current clinical evidence.
