well well AB I think you have got something here - first day I took 175 mg rhodiola and noticed more energy to hike up the hill and decrease in desire for sweet.
2nd day same dose and still less desire for sweet - and had no "wearing on " effect of the morning dose of sinemet ( one pill 25/100) . Also of note is I also include 1/4 cup of fava POD juice (no bean) in the morning.
It does seem 2nd dose of rhodiola is more subtle and I would add that in classical homeopathic prescribing one can diminish efficacy of a remedy by repeating it too soon - I'm not sure how this principal would apply to an herb that has not been diluted and succussed tho
I'm wanting to keep sinemet dose to 1 pill 25/100 in AM and 2 doses of one pill 10/100 in PM or less. I think I' doing well considering tremor and other sx became noticeable over 18 years ago.
am wondering if rhodiola best taken on occasion rather than daily...
Viva rhodiola!
