As early as more than 2,000 years ago, people on the Tibetan plateau already knew the magic of Rhodiola rosea, and used it as a dietary supplement to strengthen the body, eliminate fatigue and resist severe cold. This classic and authentic Tibetan herb, because its roots and rhizomes are red, the soup is also red, and it is a rose-eye sedum, so its name is "Rhosodiola".

There are as many as 96 varieties of Rhodiola in the world. In the "family" of Rhodiola rosea, if you want to talk about the top-quality products, it must be Rhodiola on the Snowy Plateau. Rhodiola, which grows on the snowy plateau at an altitude of 4000+ meters, has extremely high nutritional value and has the reputation of "life-extending fairy grass" and "plateau ginseng". Tibetans respectfully call Rhodiola as "Surama Treasure", which means "magic herb", Tibetan medicine regards it as "three auspicious treasures", and locals also give Rhodiola as a gift to newlyweds.

The magic of Rhodiola can be attributed to its extremely harsh growing environment. In the snow-covered plateau in Tibet, where the air is thin, the temperature is low, the sunshine is strong, and the temperature difference between day and night is large, Rhodiola must "practice a peerless martial arts" in order to survive in such a difficult environment. Its vitality, gradually adapted to the environment, and exerted the characteristics of "alpine resistance, high altitude resistance, hypoxia resistance" and so on. At the same time, bathing in pure air, rainwater and soil for a long time will make the nutrients in their bodies more pure and active, and have better effects on the body, mind and skin of the human body.

According to ancient books, "Shen Nong's Materia Medica" said that Rhodiola can "activate blood and stop bleeding, clear the lungs and relieve cough, lighten the body and invigorate qi, and prolong life"; Treatment of pneumonia, bronchitis, etc."; "The Four Medical Canons" records that Rhodiola "stable in nature, astringent in taste, good for moistening the lungs, invigorating the kidney, regulating qi and nourishing blood"; , can cure dry cough, heart failure, physical weakness, dizziness, forgetfulness, etc.”

Rhodiola rosea has the functions of strengthening the body, nourishing qi and nourishing blood, nourishing yin and benefiting the lungs. For example, when the human body has a cold and cough, it can expel phlegm and relieve cough, expel wind and relieve asthma; in the case of lung dryness and yin deficiency, it can clear the lungs and moisten dryness and nourish yin. Rhodiola rosea also has the reputation of "not Laodan". It was once crowned as "Xiancicao" by Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty. Among the tributes dedicated to the emperors of all dynasties in Tibet, there are Rhodiola rosea. In short, long-term consumption of Rhodiola can not only strengthen the body, enhance resistance, but also beautify the face and delay aging.
