Could Saffron be the key to better moods, improved memory and less stress?
Saffron is a spice with a strong fragrance and distinctive colour. Did you know that saffron is hand-picked from the stigma and styles (threads) contained within the flower petals? The delicate threads are then heated and cured to bring out the unique flavour, and the entire process is done by hand! The extra detail and manual labour put Saffron on the list of one of the most expensive spices in the world. (1 pound (450 grams) can cost between $500 and 5000, depending on the quality of the spice! )
The majority of the health benefits surrounding this unique spice often focus on its high levels of antioxidants, but as usage increases worldwide, studies are deep-diving into the unique antioxidants contained in saffron, such as “crocin,” which can help reduce inflammation and damage to the brain.
“A meta-analysis of five clinical trials revealed a treatment effect of saffron compared with placebo and similar antidepressant efficacy when compared with antidepressant medications (fluoxetine, imipramine), at a dose of 30 mg/day (all studies) for at least six weeks.”
Another study in the J found that similar to antidepressants, saffron may exert its antidepressant effect by modulating the levels of certain chemicals in the brain, including serotonin (a mood-elevating neurotransmitter). Although it has been proposed that saffron increases serotonin levels in the brain, the exact mechanism of action for this is unknown.
The exciting research with Saffron’s ability to naturally boost cognitive strength and foster mental wellness inspired Genuine Health to harness the power of the "sunshine spice" to support the critical functions of your brain and body so you can fully embrace life with less stress, better moods, and improved memory.
