23 Jun 2023 — Nektium has obtained trade permits for its Rhodiola rosea extracts from Spanish authorities, who have certified its entire stock as being compliant with the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES). The plant is an adaptogen linked to various cognitive health and sports performance benefits.
All Rhodiola species were added to Appendix II of the CITES convention in February 2023 to ensure sustainable harvesting and trade.
