How Rosavin Works

Rosavin, Siberian Rhodiola rosea, is an Adaptogen; Adaptogens adjust neurotransmitters of your brain bringing them into normal positions. Rosavin does not inhibit, but balances (MOA) monoamine oxidase and aldehyde dehydrogenase, which are the two enzymes responsible for limiting the production of serotonin in the brain. Therefore it is not an MAO inhibitor, such as St. Johns Wort or any of the pharmaceutical MAO inhibiting drugs currently on the market. MAO inhibitors differ from Rosavin in that they actually stop the manufacture of serotonin, of which only 2% to 3% is found in the rahe nucleus of the brain.

If serotonin levels are inhibited and drop below normal for any given reason, individuals could suffer substantial deviation in personality. Such deviations would ultimately lead to physician care... Rosavin on the other hand balances monoamine oxidase and aldehyde dehydrogenase, which increases dopamine and decreases acetylcholine. This is extremely important for thought transfer, motor function as well as proper body chemical production.
