Does Saffron Extract Powder help sleep health?
Serious sleep problems
Sleep problems such as sleeping late, sleeping short, and sleeping shallowly have become a problem that troubles people, and sleep health has gradually become a hot topic of concern. Sleep problems not only affect the next day's work energy, but also affect the body's immunity. Sleep quality assessment shows that sleep quality is positively correlated with human immunity. 38.8% of people have decreased immunity due to long-term sleep disorders, so people who lack sleep are more likely to be infected by viruses. Therefore, sleep health becomes more important. Sufficient and effective sleep can increase antibodies and improve human immunity.
What are the regulatory effect of saffron extract?
At present, the research on saffron at home and abroad mainly focuses on its effects on improving anxiety, helping sleep, calming nerves, as well as premenstrual conditioning and appetite suppression for women. Saffron can inhibit the reabsorption of dopamine, norepinephrine and 5-hydroxytryptamine, and increase the concentration of intersynaptic neurotransmitters. In addition, women who use saffron reasonably have increased levels of 17-β-estradiol in the follicular and luteal phases. Therefore, saffron not only has the effect of regulating emotions and assisting sleep, but also can achieve the purpose of balancing female hormone levels by regulating cortisol and estradiol levels.

Crocin restores the level of 5-HT in the synaptic cleft by binding to its reuptake transporter, thereby preventing the reuptake and subsequent degradation of 5-HT. Reuptake blockade leads to the accumulation of 5-HT in the synaptic cleft, and the concentration returns to the normal range. Safranal also inhibits the reuptake of another neurotransmitter, norepinephrine, with a mechanism similar to 5-HT reuptake inhibition, thereby achieving the effect of relieving short-term stress.
Since there are many types and subtypes of 5-HT receptors, each subtype plays a different neuromodulatory role, and many physical discomforts are often accompanied by sleep and depression problems, saffron extracts that can increase 5-HT levels and indirectly activate 5-HT receptors have a wide range of application scenarios.
What are the advantages of taking saffron extract compared to flower silk?
Saffron is very useful for some people with premenstrual abdominal pain, menstrual discomfort, sub-healthy people, insomnia people, headaches or people under great stress, and the effective dose is very low. Taking 30 mg of five times concentrated saffron extract every day is equivalent to 150 mg of saffron filaments. Calculated based on 300 filaments per gram, it is equivalent to eating 45 filaments a day, but the actual cost is far lower than the price of the same amount of filaments on the market, which is very cost-effective. Moreover, bulk saffron extract powder is very mild, will not cause side effects such as getting angry, and is safer. With the increasing attention paid to sleep health, the future market of saffron is very worth looking forward to.
