What is the difference between rhodiola rosea and Rhodiola crenulata?

This difference is especially apparent between the two main species of the plant.
Rhodiola rosea tends to have higher rosavin, while Rhodiola crenulata has higher salidroside.
Generally, rhodiola extracts are standardised to 3% rosavins and 0.8–1.0% salidrosides by weight.Aug 21, 2020

Information from: Rhodiola Rosea Extract: Rosavin vs. Salidrosides - LinkedIn

Rhodiola's beneficial adaptogenic benefits partly stem from a phytochemical it contains, salisdroside. A compound
that aids in relieving anxiety and stress. Rhodiola promotes balancing the stress hormone in the body. If they are too high it
can bring it down, conversely if they are too low it can bring them up, this is the power of an adaptogen. Adaptogen plants are
known for their outstanding stress-protective and immune boosting qualities.

Rhodiola aids in repairing exhausted and burnt out adrenals, making it highly adaptive and effective herb to
combat stress, fatigue, anxiety and worry.

Three unusual facts about Hong Jing Tian (Rhodiola rosea or Arctic root):

Despite its name "Arctic root", Hong Jing Tian actually grows in cold, mountainous regions across the
Northern Hemisphere, including parts of North America, Europe, and Asia. Its natural habitat includes places
like the Rocky Mountains and Siberia's Altai Mountains.
The Viking explorers of Scandinavia may have used Hong Jing Tian to enhance their endurance and resilience during long
sea voyages and battles. Some historical accounts refer to it as the "Viking's ginseng" or "golden root."
In Siberian folktales and traditions, Hong Jing Tian was believed to promote longevity and vitality. Locals would mark the
location of Hong Jing Tian plants with piles of stones to make them easier to find each year when harvesting the roots.

These unusual facts highlight Hong Jing Tian's long history of use across diverse cultures spanning the northern latitudes, as well as some of the lore and mystique surrounding this resilient botanical with purported life-extending and performance-enhancing properties.
