Re: Rhodiola rosea and hypercoagulation

[Guest guest]

See http://lassesen.com/cfids/rosavin.htm

for what is known about it.

There is hypercoagulation IMPACT caused by the decrease of hormonal

changes peculiar to stress and well as enhance transport of serotonin

precursor. I have not been able to find scientific study of this

impact... but then again, it's a relatively new item

There is some interesting information on serotonin at

http://lassesen.com/cfids/serotonin.htm on serotonin and coagulation.

For hormonal stress and coagulation see:

I don't really know if the butchers broom raises BP. I assume it does

because it constricts peripheral arteries reducing orthostatic intolerance.

I'm still getting benefit from it. Steve B.
