Book Description

May 1, 1999
Chinese medical practitioners describe adaptogens as "superior" plants that profoundly benefit the human body without dangerous side effects. While the most famous adaptogen is ginseng, cutting-edge research by top Russian doctors and scientists has shown that Arctic Root can ease more conditions, including stress, depression, heart disease and cancer. Readers learn how to benefit from making Arctic Root part of their holistic regimen.

3.0 out of 5 stars Provides a useful historical and theoretical background., November 15, 1999
This review is from: Arctic Root (Rhodiola Rosea) : The Powerful New Ginseng Alternative (Paperback)
I found this to be a satisfactory book. Although the writing is somewhat dogmatic and awkward, the book provides a useful historical and theoretical background behind rhodiola rosea, a medicinal herb that is newly available on the nutritional supplement market.

The authors have the credentials needed to give an educated viewpoint and the book provides research references to support the information given. Incredibly, the authors do not give specifics about what kind of strength or standardization to look for when purchasing the herb (a definite oversight). They do however give a helpful list of companies that sell it. It should be noted that all three authors have a significant financial stake in the marketing of this particular herb.

The best part of this book is the topic. Several years from now, you WILL be hearing about this impressive new herb. Why wait to hear about it at a cocktail party? Get more accurate and timely information from this book.
