Nutricost Saffron Extract 88.5mg, 240 Capsules - Veggie Caps, Non-GMO, Gluten Free

Saw a Youtube video (I think from Thomas DeLauer) that talked about they did a study on saffron for mood and sleep and how this worked with all the people in the study.So I decided to give it a try.I take about 5mg of melatonin (it doesnt affect me in a bad way) but if you're looking for sleep "aid" and maybe you dont like how melatonin affects you, try a lower dose, maybe 1mg.But I take melatonin, passion flower, Valarian root (you can take these 2 as capsules or tea and or tincture of course)But I found myself waking up mid way and having a hard time going back to sleep.FIRST time trying saffron I slept through the night.So now I take saffron in midday then again before going to bed. Just one capsule.

Yes so much better then putting chemicals in yr body id remind this an st John's

I have been taking this for almost a month now, in combination with an omega-3 supplement, and I can honestly say I haven't felt this good in a while. I feel so clear-headed and energetic and no longer feel the dreaded anxiety in social situations. I also always struggled to get out of bed, and I am finding myself feeling well rested and ready to tackle the day with full energy. Highly recommended and definitely worth a shot.

One a day, easy to swallow capsule. No odor or aftertaste. Recommended as a natural alternative along with B12 complex. Can’t say it’s working, but I also can’t say it’s not.

I've been purchasing this item through subscribe and save for a few years. I take saffron because I read somewhere that it is helpful for macular degeneration (AREDS). My retina doctor does not agree, but says it can't hurt and many MDs just don't practice holistic methods. As long as it is affordable, I will keep taking it twice a day just in case it helps as my eyesight from declining more with age. Saffron has many other health benefits (like brain function) that make it a staple in my diet!

Great improvement in my mood, mental state, and sleep patterns.Worked better than any medication I ever took.Should be required knowledge in school.

Mostly good. It definitely boosts my mood throughout the day, but it leads to a massive crash in my mood about 6-8 hours after I take it. Makes me easily upset which is what I was trying to avoid. I’d go with another brand if you have the money

I was talking to my therapist about psych meds. In general I don’t like them, but one time I took a medication and liked that ‘I felt like I could choose what to be concerned about.’ There were other effects that I didn’t like. Anyway, when I said that my therapist said "that’s exactly the reason I give when I recommend saffron," so I figured I’d give it a chance (after doing a little extra homework.)I’m on my second bottle. I don’t feel like I’m ’on anything", I don’t have any negative or other side effects, but I’m having an easier time navigating challenging situations, have been more productive from wasting less time, and just feel like I am making better decisions all around.For awhile I didn’t want to believe it was that easy, or that I needed a pill to feel better. I thought things were probably just going well for a bit. But now it’s been a few months and things just keep getting better, so I have to believe this supplement is helping.I chose this particular bottle because it lists the percentage of Safranal, in addition to the mg of the capsule. After reading how this stuff is cultivated I felt (this is 100% my opinion) that it’s possible to get saffron that’s processed with the ‘good stuff’ removed.
