Rhodiola

Three weeks in and the afternoon crash I used to get around 3pm is basically gone. I take one capsule before my morning run and the mental focus through long meetings feels sharper. Grown in high-altitude climates apparently, which is a nice detail for whatever that's worth.

I was skeptical about adaptogens, but after a month of morning doses my afternoon slump basically vanished. The energy feels steady rather than jittery, which is exactly what I wanted for long workdays.

The capsules are easy to swallow and don't leave any weird aftertaste, which I appreciate. Three weeks in, I've noticed my afternoon energy slump isn't hitting as hard during my training sessions. Solid addition to my daily routine.
