As such, it is the world’s highest strength saffron extract.
The saffron itself contains 3 active ingredients: Crocin, Saffranal and Picrocrocin, which belong to a subclass of carotenoids known as Lepticrosalides. Saffrosun For Children® also contains 100% of the recommended daily amount of vitamin B12 for children, as this vitamin has also been shown in clinical research studies to reduce tiredness and fatigue. It also contains vitamin D3 which can be lacking in the diets of young people, yet is important for healthy functioning and for growth.
1. How does Saffrosun For Children® work?
Saffron contains lepticrosalides - a subclass of carotenoids - which have been clinically proven to improve psychological balance, tiredness, and help individuals feel rested and refreshed on waking. These compounds are thought to work by boosting the body’s levels of serotonin - a hormone found in the brain, gut and blood platelets. Serotonin regulates mood and sleep. It also induces the ‘full’, contented feeling after eating a meal. Low serotonin levels are linked with depression, anxiety, poor sleep and other conditions.
2. Is there scientific evidence that Saffrosun For Children® works?
There is a growing body of evidence proving the active ingredients in are effective in both adults and children. Lepticrosalides have been clinically proven to improve psychological balance, tiredness, and help people feel rested and refreshed on waking. Indeed, the results of a new, randomized, double blind clinical trial1 conducted in Queensland, involving 128 participants reporting low self-mood, were published in the journal, Complimentary Therapies in Medicine published by Elsevier. The results show good statistical differences in depression, anxiety and stress levels when trial subjects received saffron extract. A new study2 researching the benefits of saffron in children suffering from ADHD is due for publication in 2017/18.
