Rhodiola Rosea: The Anti Aging Miracle?

If you are looking for an anti aging miracle as they say, you should apparently according to researchers at the University of California, Irvine, look into rhodiola rosea.  On a personal level, I think it’s a scam, I really do.  I mean they use it in weight loss supplements sometimes.  They say it will burn fat.  But to be quite honest about it, the reality is that well honestly, it’s nothing more than a glorified stimulant.  But researchers are saying that this has been proven to extend lifespans in fruit flies.  Fruit flies live I think I heard for less than 24 hours, and they’re fruit flies!  Are you kidding me.  They can’t measure skin depth, wrinkles, or really health in general.  And while that short a lifespan means about 1 minute extra is a bigger deal, they’re fruit flies!  So realistically speaking, sometimes it blows me away the things that scientists will say to be fact and applicable to humans or otherwise be these supposed miracles.  It makes scientific studies in many ways to me quite illegitimate or with less legitimacy in general.  I don’t know what I think about it in all honesty, and well I won’t be wasting time and money on rhodiola rosea any time soon.
