Crocus sativus (Stigma)
Premium Saffron extract standardized for Crocin content
Saffron Extract, derived from the dried stigmas of Crocus sativus, is a naturally sourced botanical ingredient valued for its distinctive phytochemical profile and standardized 0.3% crocin content. Crocin, a naturally occurring carotenoid compound, is considered one of the key bioactive constituents of saffron and contributes to its characteristic color and functional properties. Available in powder form, Saffron Extract can be incorporated into nutraceuticals, dietary supplements, functional wellness products, and specialized botanical formulations. It is commonly used in formulations designed to support mood and emotional wellness, antioxidant protection, cognitive health, eye wellness, and overall well-being.
