Rhodiola Rosea correct cycling

Posted by Agomelatinehope on September 10, 2012, at 6:30:14

Hi,

I heard that you must cycle R.R from time to time or else it loses effectiveness.

From what I've read it seems you can either:

-Take it 3 months and then rest 1
-Take it mon-fry and rest the weekend

From your personal experience. Which option seems to be the best? (Or is there any other?)

Thank you so much

I don't really have an answer, but I'm curious too! I've been taking Rhodiola for a couple of years without a break. I take so many things that I don't know if it has pooped out or not, frankly (it's part of my adrenal stress blend). I might try not taking it over the weekends to see. Maybe 3 weeks then one week off makes the most sense. I don't see why anyone would have to stop taking it for a month.

I read somewhere that cycling should be done at a 3:1 ratio (Let's say you take it for 3 weeks and then stop for 1)

Makes kind of sense but I'd like to hear personal experiences on this

Thank you
