Rhodiola Rosea 3% Salidroside vs Rhodiola Crenulata
Original post in this thread

Wondering what the benefit of Crenulata over the regular 3% sal 1% ros extract would be, given that Crenulata lacks any rosavins.
Is tyrosol higher in Crenulata? Why not state the %? And if it is higher, could it be considered the wider spectrum version of the salidroside/tyrosol solution?
Thanks

I find that the crenulata species is more strictly stimulating, as I find the rosavins are a calming part of the plant. Rhodiola crenulata also has unique actives not found in rosea.

There is also evidence that crenualta might be better for certain inflammation.
