Vitakruid Saffron 28 mg (Affron) & BioperineSaffron comes from the stigma of the Crocus sativus, a plant that mainly grows in Italy, India, Spain, Greece, Iran, and France. In these countries, the herb is extremely popular.
Herb from Ayurveda
Perhaps centuries ago, Ayurvedic medicine did not yet have knowledge about neurotransmitters, but the health-promoting effects of saffron were already widely utilized.
Affron® is the best saffron worldwide
This product contains a high-quality saffron extract, unlike powder. What makes the difference? A powder is simply a finely ground raw product. An extract contains nutrients of a much higher concentration, making its effectiveness many times greater than that of powder.
In addition, the high-quality saffron extract in our product comes from the patented Affron®. This is a nutrient developer that only works with 100% genuine saffron and guarantees optimal quality. They exclusively obtain their extract from controlled Spanish cultivation. Moreover, the effectiveness of Affron has been confirmed in extensive research by the EFSA, the European Food Safety Authority.
Affron contains a high percentage of active ingredients
Affron® is a unique and natural saffron extract that is standardized to 3.5% lepticrosalides. Lepticrosalides is a patented substance containing the active ingredients of saffron: safranal, crocin, and picrocrocin. These are also the components that give saffron its characteristic properties, both its health-promoting effects and its outward characteristics.
For example, crocins are certain chemical compounds that, among other things, provide the characteristic yellow color. In addition, picrocrocin provides the bitter taste, and safranal is responsible for the aroma.
Black pepper extract (Bioperine®) for better absorption
In this formula, we combine saffron with the patented Bioperine®. This is an extract of black pepper that consists of no less than 95-98% piperine, the main active ingredient. The high-quality Bioperine® has been clinically tested, which scientifically proves its quality. The main reason for adding this quality black pepper extract is because research shows that it improves the absorption of other herbal extracts.
