(roseroot) is an adaptogen plant belonging to the Crassulaceae family. The broad spectrum of biological activity of R. rosea is attributed to its major phenyletanes and phenylpropanoids: rosavin, salidroside, rosin, cinnamyl alcohol, and tyrosol. In this study, we compared the content of phenyletanes and phenylpropanoids in rhizomes of R. rosea from the Norwegian germplasm collection collected in 2004 and in 2017. In general, the content of these bioactive compounds in 2017 was significantly higher than that observed in 2004. The freeze-drying method increased the concentration of all phenyletanes and phenylpropanoids in rhizomes compared 1 with conventional drying at 70 ◦C. As far as we know, the content of salidroside (51.0 mg g− ) observed in this study is the highest ever detected in Rhodiola spp.

    CHAPTER 16 DEMAND AND AVAILABILITY OF RHODIOLA ROSEA L. RAW MATERIAL BERTALAN GALAMBOSI Agrifood Research Finland, Ecological Production Karilantie 2A, FIN-50600 Mikkeli, Finland E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. Rhodiola rosea L. roseroot, (Golden root or Arctic root) is a herbaceous perennial plant of the family Crassulaceae. The yellow-flowered roseroot species is a circumpolar species of cool temperate and sub-arctic areas of the northern hemisphere, including North America, Greenland, Iceland and the Altai, Tien-Shan, Himalaya mountains in Asia. The European distribution includes Scandinavia and most of the mountains of Central Europe. Roseroot has traditionally been used in Russia and Mongolia for the treatment of long-term illness and weakness caused by infection. Rhodiola radix and rhizome is a multipurpose medicinal herb with adaptogenic properties: it increases the body’s nonspecific resistance and normalizes body functions. A special emphasis in pharmacological research has been put on roseroot in the former Soviet Union. Several clinical studies have documented roseroot’s beneficial effects on memory and learning, immune- response stress and cancer therapy. Rhodiola preparations have widely been used to increase the stress tolerance of the cosmonauts. Salidroside and its precursor tyrosol, and cinnamic glycosides (rosin, rosavin and rosarin) have been identified from the roots and rhizome. Other important constituents are flavonoids, tannins and gallic acid and its esters (Brown et al. 2002). Based on the documented pharmacological effects and its safe use, the commercial interest for roseroot-based products has quickly increased worldwide. Presently one of the biggest problems is to meet the raw-material requirement for the growing industrial demand.

  • Rhodiola Rosea: a Phytomedicinal Overview By
    Rhodiola rosea: A Phytomedicinal Overview by Richard P. Brown, M.D., Patricia L. Gerbarg, M.D., and Zakir Ramazanov, Ph.D., D.S. Rhodiola rosea L., also known as "golden root" or "roseroot" belongs to the plant family Crassulaceae.1 R. rosea grows primarily in dry sandy ground at high altitudes in the arctic areas of Europe and Asia.2 The plant reaches a height of 12 to 30 inches (70cm) and produces yellow blossoms. It is a perennial with a thick rhizome, fragrant when cut. The Greek physician, Dioscorides, first recorded medicinal applications of rodia riza in 77 C.E. in De Materia Medica.3 Linnaeus renamed it Rhodiola rosea, referring to the rose-like attar (fragrance) of the fresh cut rootstock.4 For centuries, R. rosea has been used in the traditional medicine of Russia, Scandinavia, and other countries. Between 1725 and 1960, various medicinal applications of R. rosea appeared in the scientific literature of Sweden, Norway, France, Germany, the Soviet Union, and Iceland.2,4-12 Since 1960, more than 180 pharmacological, phytochemical, and clinical studies have been published. Although R. rosea has been extensively studied as an adaptogen with various health-promoting effects, its properties remain largely unknown in the West. In part this may be due to the fact that the bulk of research has been published in Slavic and Scandinavian languages. This review provides an introduction to some of the traditional uses of R. rosea, its phytochemistry, scientific studies exploring its diverse physiological effects, and its current and future medical applications. Rhodiola rosea in Traditional Medicine Traditional folk medicine used R.
