My experience may not reflect the value of this herb to you. I know people for whom it has been a godsend. You won't know if you don't try it, eh?

Even with the seals intact, I'm stuck with stuff. I bought Rhodiola from a dealer in the States, and to cover the shipping costs efficiently, I generally order a 6-12 month supply of whatever it is that I can't find here. So, if it doesn't work out, I have tons left over.

> -- RonWell, I have tried giving my leftovers to people, but when they ehar why I'm trying to unload it (it didn't work) they're not interested. Go figure!
