Other Ingredients (4)
Rice FlourFiller
Rice-based ingredients carry risk of inorganic arsenic contamination (FDA and Consumer Reports). Rice accumulates arsenic from soil at higher rates than other grains. Used as a cheap filler — adds nothing beneficial.
Magnesium StearateLubricant
A salt of stearic acid used as a lubricant in tablet and capsule production
Silicon DioxideAnti-caking
Fine silica powder used to prevent clumping
Capsule ShellCapsule
Generic capsule shell where the label does not specify the material. Common materials are hypromellose (HPMC) for vegetarian capsules and gelatin for traditional capsules — both are GRAS-listed and safe. Fish gelatin and pullulan variants also exist.
How to Take It
Best taken in the morning
Contains Rhodiola rosea, which is stimulating — keep it to the morning. Ashwagandha is easier on the stomach taken with food.
Rhodiola rosea does better on an empty stomach, but something else in this bottle needs food. Taking the whole product with a meal is the better trade — an upset stomach is why most people stop.
On the label
As a dietary supplement, take one vegan capsule one to two times per day with water.
General guidance based on the ingredients, not a substitute for the label or your doctor.
