Ingredients and scientific evidence
SAFFRON
Saffron is a spice coming from the stigmas of Crocus sativus flowers, a small perenniel plant cultivated in Iran, Afghanistan, Turkey and Spain was widely used as a herbal sedative. The main components of saffron are crocin (natural carotenoid) responsible for the color of saffron, picrocrocin the cause for bitterness and safranal gives a distinct taste and aroma. Affron[reg] is a unique standardized stigmas extract from saffron to bear 3.5% Lepticrosalides[reg] (three carotenoids).
HOW DOES SAFFRON EXTRACT AFFRON® CONTRIBUTE TO A HEALTHY MOOD?
Several human studies have found that saffron is effective in treating mild to moderate depression symptoms as a result of an interaction with the serotonin and noradrenaline system.|1|$Khazdair M.R., et al. (2015). Phytomed., 5(5), 376-391.$
In one study 128 healthy adults self-reporting a low mood, completed specific questionnaires at the beginning (baseline) and end of a four-week trial while being supplemented with affron[reg], a standardized saffron extract or placebo. The results indicated a decreased negative mood, and symptoms related to stress and anxiety for the group of participants taking affron[reg] compared to baseline and placebo intake, while sleep quality was not improved.|2|$Kell G., et al. (2017). Complement. Ther. Med., 33, 58-64.$
The pooled data in a meta-analysis conducted on nine clinical trials confirms the effectivenesss of saffron on the severity of depression, being more effective than placebo and equivalent to antidepressant drugs.|3|$Tóth B., et al. (2019). Planta Med., 85(1), 24-31.$ Saffron extract may be a natural alternative to conventional treatment for signs and symptoms of depression and may support overall mood in healthy adults.
