Saffron | 60 Vegetable Capsules

Saffron is a spice derived from the dried stigmas and styles of the Crocus sativus flower. The main bioactive compounds in saffron stigmas are: crocins, crocetin, picrocrocin and safranal. In addition, saffron also contains other active components such as carotenoids, zeaxanthin, lycopene, beta-carotene and polysaccharides. Saffron, in addition to its culinary use, has been used in traditional medicine, among other uses, to promote a healthy mood balance. New Roots Herbal Saffron provides clinically studied saffron (Crocus sativus) stigmas extract (affron™) of the highest quality. Our saffron extract is standardised to 3.5% Lepticrosalides®, by HPLC. Lepticrosalides® is a patented combination of the active substances in saffron: crocin, safranal and picrocrocin. The quality of affron® lies in its origins, cultivated in fields in Castilla-La Mancha, the selection of the Crocus sativus L. species and the exclusive patented low-temperature extraction process that allows the bioactive compounds to be preserved at a minimal energy cost.
