    What is Saffron and where does it come from?

    Saffron (Kesar or Za’faran), is a spice obtained from the Crocus sativus plant and is often referred to as the Golden Spice, due to its high cost and yellow color. Saffron is used for its medicinal properties, as well as a seasoning in food and as a coloring agent for over 4 millennia. Over 90% of the world’s saffron supply comes from Iran [1].


    The Crocus sativus flower consists of thread-like, crimson-colored structures known as stigmas. It is these stigmas that are collected and dried to create the spice Saffron [2].

    Saffron is made up of a variety of chemical compounds that give rise to its taste, color and health benefits.

    Traditional Use

    Saffron tinctures and extracts have been used for centuries in traditional medicine [3].


    Some of these uses have been, eupeptic, emmenagogue, carminative, expectorant, antispasmodic, stomachic, sedative, stimulant, diaphoretic, and aphrodisiac.

    In ancient Egypt, saffron was believed to be used as treatment for various ailments.

    How does it work?

    The impressive chemical components of saffron are responsible for its medicinal properties.


    Saffron helps increase levels of proteins required for blood flow, healthy brain activity such as BDNF, VEGF, and phosphorylated CREB [4] and development.

    It also acts as an antioxidant by picking up free radicals that can cause damage to proteins and DNA in cells. Saffron inhibits the buildup of the amyloid-beta protein, which is the main cause of Alzheimer’s disease [5].

    Saffron also inhibits the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, which raises the levels of acetylcholine in blood [6].

    Saffron mediates a lot of its therapeutic effects through crocin, which is converted to crocetin in the body, so it is more easily absorbed [7].

    Crocetin is thought to increase serotonin levels in the brain, which might explain Saffron's mood enhancing effects [8].

    Safranal is another of the main chemicals in saffron which [9]:
    • Helps stimulate beta 2 receptors: Adrenergic receptors that increase blood flow and heart rate. Stimulation mimics the effects of noradrenaline and adrenaline.
    • Inhibits histamine 1 receptors: Blocks the activity of histamine.
    • Stimulates GABAa receptors: Mimics GABA, further increasing the brain-protective effects.

    Saffron also seems to have antiviral effects, which work by preventing the virus entry into cells and helps stop duplication [10].

    Additionally, Saffron can help with:

    • Weight management by slowing down fat absorption and digestion, reducing calorie intake by lowering appetite [11], and improving glucose and fat utilization for energy
    • Improving libido by acting as an aphrodisiac [12]

    People mainly use Saffron to: Lower Appetite & Manage Weight

    Research has shown that saffron may help curb your appetite by preventing snacking.


    Women taking saffron supplements in an 8-week study snacked less frequently, lost significantly more weight than women in the placebo group and felt more full [13].

    In another 8-week study, saffron extract supplementation seemed to remarkably help reduce BMI, waist circumference, appetite and waist circumference [14].

    Elevate Mood

    Saffron extract may support elevated mood and mental health by increasing levels of norepinephrine and dopamine [15].


    Saffron contains crocin, which the body converts to crocetin. Crocetin is thought to increase serotonin levels in the brain [16] . A study that was conducted on 73 18-60 year olds who self-reported feelings of anxiety and/or stress and daily low mood showed that Saffron had a positive effect on their moods [17].

    How do you take it?

    Any cautions?

    Although side effects are seldom seen with saffron supplementation, minor discomfort such as dry mouth, dizziness, nausea and headaches may occur.

    Some people may also show allergic reactions to the carotenoids found in saffron.

    Neprinol AFD 300caps (Arthur Andrew Medical)

    I had a large varicose vein on my leg that’s been causing me problems for years. I’d received a substantial quote to remove it using sclerotherapy. I’m 70. My daughter bought me these tablets for my general health. I take 3 in the morning and 3 at night. After about two weeks of taking these, my painful varicose vein disappeared. No need now for vein treatment. I feel great - I certainly do not feel 70! My daughter had bought these previously from another website but will now buy from longevity. Brilliant service and quick delivery.

    Modifilan Brown Seaweed Extract, 90 Capsules, 500 mg

    As well as removing metals from your body, these capsules are great for constipation, and continue to work long after the end of a bottle. And of course, completely natural.

    Dragon Herbs Young Lungs 100 capsules 500mg

    Take the mucus-melting, phlegm-expelling properties of Free The Lungs, combine with the cough-disappearing effect of Golden Air, add the ability to breathe deeper, and I still would not have encapsulated all the benefits that Young Lungs seems to provide. This formula has blown me away. For total respiratory health, this is THE product.

    The Energy Blueprint - Energenesis 432.5g

    I have adrenal insufficiency and another crash/hospital admission left my body very depleted. I've been taking an arsenal of supplements to support my cellular health and recovery but I have definitely felt a difference in energy levels since starting the energenesis - i could almost feel my cells tingling! The taste is very sweet and I find adding it to a smoothie makes it more palatable. It is on the pricey side but for me the science makes sense and it's a worthwhile investment in my health - thank you for bringing this product to my attention!

    Surthrival Colostrum 180caps 500mg

    Third bottle of this I’ve had, the best colostrum out there. It tastes so delicious out of the capsule, even one pill somehow manages to improve digestion, give my skin a bit of a glow and give me a mood boost! I don’t know what it’s doing to have that effect on my mood, lowering inflammation in the gut or immune enhancing I don’t know, but it’s also stimulating and hard to sleep for me if I take too much, so I have to go slow. Love it and wish I could take tons as it’s literally one of the most beneficial supplements I’ve ever taken.

    Living Libations Green Papaya & Lime AHA mask

    I have quite sensitive skin so wondered how my skin would react to this product. I applied a thin layer over my face and left for 15 minutes then lightly massaged and rinsed off with warm water. My skin felt soft and smooth after, and was not dried out. I'm looking to using it weekly/bi-weekly as part of my skincare routine.

    Zymessence 180 capsules, WAM Essentials (Dr Wong)

    Highly recommend. Certainly notice once stop taking. For chronic symptoms 3 per day on an empty stomach seems to help although the label advises one capsule for maintenance.

    Mr Oxygen's SUPER OxyFlush 120caps

    Firstly, I have been a client of Longevity Essentials for the last two years. Wonderful family business. I found this company just by chance when I found the Aggressive Health Book written by the founder of this website/company – Mike Nash. Fab book that is the genesis of my health program. Mr Oxygen Super Oxyflush is heaven sent. I have been taking for nearly four weeks and what an improvement in my gastrointestinal system. If you have more than one of the following - digetive issues, constipation, bloating or gas, taken in the past antibiotics, strong craving for sweets, bread or alcoholic drinks, psoriasis or skin infections, have had parasites, dealing with fatigue, depression, poor memory or nervous tension, dry skin, rashes, nail infections. Circulatory problems – cold hands and feet. This product along with the following will help: I am currently taking it with the Mr Oxygen Oxyflush and the Immune Tree liquid Oxygen. It best to take them all on an empty stomach – first two capsules of Oxyflush, NEXT take the Oxysulfur with ascorbic acid, NEXT take the Immune Tree Liquid Oxygen. These three will diffidently clean and purify your digestive tract, every organ, blood vessel and cell in the entire body. It does this by liquefying the waste in the system and passing it out through the bowels and urinary tract. Mr Oxygen’s OxySulfur is absolutely the best on the market in my opinion. I have been taking MSM Sulphur for the last three years only noticing moderate results. However, after taking OxySulfur for just four weeks I noticed a vast difference. My hair is shiny and bouncer, my fingernails are strong and white, and my skin is smooth as satin and radiant. Just recently I purchased the last in stock, that is how good this product is.

    Dragon Herbs Deer Antler Drops 240ml (8floz), Dragon Herbs

    This stuff is changing my body faster than anything else. Fat is melting away yet since taking deer antler I've become ravenously hungry, needing to eat every 2-3 hours. I can tighten my trouser belt by another notch, all my clothes feel much looser on me, and my sciatica seems eased. This is an extremely potent supplement.

    Ancestral Supplements - Grass Fed Natural Desiccated Thyroid 180caps 500mg

    I will have to check again next month to make sure it is this medicine that helped me and shocked me. My TSH on October 16 was just over 100. On that day I started with 6 capsules a day, I got tested today, and my TSH is 12, that is a massive drop within 2 months. I took adrenal with this at 4 caps a day. I never noticed anything physically, like less brain fog, more energy....although my toilet is much better. I will report back in another 2 months, I should have normal TSh range. :) Along with taking this medicine, I have done Ujjai pranayam, a special way of breathing for 10 mins a day, and general exercise and I drank a teaspoon of coriander in warm water every other day.
