FAQ:
What is affron® and why is it different from standard saffron?
affron® is a patented, clinically studied saffron extract standardised to contain a precise ratio of Lepticrosalides™, the bioactive compounds responsible for saffron's mood and sleep benefits. Unlike generic saffron powders, affron® has been validated in multiple human clinical trials and delivers consistent, measurable results at a low 28mg dose.
How does saffron support mood?
Saffron's active compounds including crocin, crocetin and safranal, are believed to support mood by modulating serotonin metabolism, reducing oxidative stress in the brain and supporting healthy dopamine activity. Clinical studies on affron® have shown significant improvements in mood, anxiety and emotional wellbeing compared to placebo.
Can saffron help with sleep?
Yes. affron® has been studied for its effects on sleep quality, with clinical research showing improvements in sleep onset, sleep duration and overall sleep quality. Its calming, mood regulating properties make it particularly useful for those whose sleep is disrupted by an overactive or anxious mind.
Saffron (Crocus sativus) has been prized for thousands of years, not only as a culinary spice but as a medicinal plant with profound effects on mood, cognition and emotional wellbeing.
Modern science has begun to validate what traditional medicine has long understood. Saffron contains a unique combination of bioactive compounds including crocin, crocetin and safranal, that work through multiple pathways to support brain health and emotional balance.
Crocin and crocetin are carotenoid antioxidants that cross the blood brain barrier and have been shown to modulate serotonin reuptake, support dopamine activity and reduce neuroinflammation. Safranal, responsible for saffron's distinctive aroma, has demonstrated anxiolytic and sedative properties in research settings.
The challenge with saffron supplementation has historically been consistency, the potency of saffron extracts varies enormously depending on the source, growing conditions and extraction method.
affron® solves this problem.
Developed through a patented, award winning extraction process, affron® is standardised to contain a precise and consistent ratio of Lepticrosalides™, the collective term for saffron's key bioactive compounds. This standardisation ensures that every capsule delivers the same clinically validated dose, regardless of natural variation in the raw material.
affron® is the world's most researched saffron extract, with multiple published human clinical trials supporting its efficacy for mood, sleep, anxiety, PMS and libido. It is produced in Spain from organically grown saffron and is certified organic, GMO free, gluten free and vegan.
Natroceutics has selected affron® as the foundation of this formula because of its unmatched clinical evidence base and its commitment to purity, potency and sustainability.
