Question on this Product: Rhodiola Rosea Extract Powder | 60 Grams | 3% Salidroside

I ordered the product in the title line on Amazon from Nootropics Depot (you were the seller), and I noticed that you sell a different Rhodiola extract that does not have Rosavins.
I was wondering if the Rhodiola Rosea Extract Powder that is 3% Salidroside, does not have the Rosavins removed?

Thanks for the response. Do you guys do your own inhouse research with regards to the mechanisms of action for supplements with scarce studies like tongkat ali? In my own searches Im finding a pretty wide range of claims such as it could be reducing SHGB and other claims such as it acts as an aromatase inhibitor.

Yes, my research team and I do a ton of research before bringing something out. I also do personal trials of it myself to get an idea of how effective things will be, what doses are good, and any side effects that might happen.
Tongkat Ali \(Eurycoma longifoliaJack\): A review on its ethnobotany andpharmacological importance
To be honest, my excitement on this particular one did not start because of the scientific research. It's based on the amazing effects I have personally been getting from it. I first tried tongkat ali this past October. I actually didn't give it much of thought beforehand, and figured it was all bullshit. However, I got a sample of a potent extract from a supplier. So I decided to try it. That opened my mind up to it. Then I spent the next 5 months buying all sorts of tongkat ali from the market, and getting more sample in from manufacturers to compare to what was out there. So I personally trialed a ton of competitors to see how they affected me. Then we built a relationship with a very good manufacturer with their own farms. This is how I decided on which extracts and standardizations to go with, and realized that 99% of what is on the market is total shit right now. It might as well be a completely different product to the ones we are bringing out. These 100:1 and 200:1 extracts are garbage. When I spoke to the manufacturer about it, I realized why. They are not 100:1 and 200:1 at all... They are more like 4:1 and 8:1. The suppliers have to call them 100:1 and 200:1 because that is what US companies advertise them as. However, that's all just bullshit! They are also super cheap! Our higher potency tonkgat ali we are bringing out costs us 41X more than a 100:1. FORTY ONE TIME MORE. People are getting sold a shitty product, then lied to about what the extracts actually are! Everyone is being scammed without knowing it! So I figured we needed to actually give people a quality product so they can feel what a potent tongkat ali can actually do.
