Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I use Rhodiola for anxiety and social phobia. I have suffered from anxiety for many years, and have been on and off anxiety medication including Lexapro and Xanax. I can say Rhodiola Rosea has worked wonders for me. I love it and I don't feel the need to take anxiety medicine anymore. I take it first thing in the morning on an empty stomach and my anxiety level significantly decreases. I also notice that my appetite is also affected in that my hunger levels are reduced. Once I took it after I ate breakfast and I felt bloated, so I never did that again-always on an empty stomach. I have read that Rhodiola does lose its effectiveness after several months, so I take it just a few days a week (or if I am specifically going to a meeting or social event) and I try to take at least a week off of it each month. I also use Ashwaganda at night (same brand-Gaia) and the combination of the two are excellent for my anxiety, social phobia, stress and insomnia.
