[What is Rhodiola Rosea]

Rhodiola Rosea (also known as Arctic root or golden root) is a member of the family Crassulaceae, a family of plants native to the arctic regions of Eastern Siberia. Rhodiola rosea is widely distributed  in Arctic and mountainous regions throughout Europe and Asia. It grows at altitudes of 11,000 to 18,000 feet above sea level.

There are numerous animal and test tube studies showing that rhodiola has both a stimulating and a sedating effect on the central nervous system; enhance physical endurance; improves thyroid, thymus, and adrenal function; protects the nervous system, heart and liver; and has antioxidant and anticancer properties.

There are many rules to follow when it comes to producing organic honey. The bee farms have to be kept at a distance of at least three kilometers from any contaminants like non-organic land or factories.

Introduction to Biological Chemistry, Part 3 by Professor Fink covers Phospholipids, Steroids & introduces Proteins. The lecture describes the hydrophilic & hydrophobic nature of phospholipids, soaps, emulsifiers and Bile. Steroids are then presented, including Cholesterol, Testosterone, Adrenal Androgen, Estrogen, Progesterone, Corticosteroids and Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D). Proteins are then introduced, including the structure Amino Acids. Reference is made to cell membranes, gall bladder, atherosclerosis, anabolic steroids, and essential amino acids in the diet.
