AOR Saffron 15mg 60 Vegi-Caps
AOR Saffron 15mg
AOR Saffron 15mg is a pure, standardized extract, sourced from Iran, and derived from a proprietary process that extracts the main active compounds of the stigma of saffron flowers without causing oxidative damage.*
With over 150 identified compounds in the flower, this highly prized herb has widespread traditional health-related uses, from inflammation to PMS to digestive support. However, it is now being seriously regarded for its therapeutic role in mood, homocysteine levels, and more. It is a natural support for neurotransmitters, which modulate various functions including sleep and mood.* Studies to date support its effective role in the management of depressive symptoms, with mechanisms of action thought to be similar to prescription antidepressants (i.e. re-uptake inhibition of monoamines [dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin] and inhibition of the N-methyl-D-aspartic acid [NMDA] receptor). Saffron has also been found to have GABA-like effects, which assists in relieving feelings of stress. Saffron has been clinically proven to help manage stress while supporting mood balance; scientific studies continue to reveal its possible health-related advantages.
