Rhaponticum

Native to Siberian alpine meadows, Rhaponticum (Rhaponticum carthamoides) is a perennial herb that is commonly called maral root. It has been consumed for centuries in Siberia and across Eastern Europe, often alongside Rhodiola, another adaptogen that hails from the same region. The root has been used traditionally to support a healthy response to physical stress and promote normal energy levels.* It also has a long history of use to support stamina and a healthy libido in men and women.* Rhaponticum produces pink thistlelike flowers, is a valued herb in Russian folk medicine and is also used in Traditional Chinese Medicine.
