Rhodiola (Rhodiola rosea)
Rhodiola (Rhodiola rosea) is widely found in the Arctic and mountainous regions of Europe and Asia. Rhodiola was used by the Vikings, who discovered it in Iceland, to increase their physical strength and endurance. It was considered a magical plant, hence the saying: « The man who uses the pink root will remain powerful for two hundred years ».

Vitamin B6 helps to reduce fatigue especially during periods of overwork, and to maintain good psychological functions.
