How is saffron harvested?

Saffron is obtained from the delicate pistil threads of the saffron crocus (Crocus sativus) flowers. The laborious harvesting of these stigmas is done entirely by hand and is very complex, as there are only three such stigmas per flower. An estimated 150,000 of these valuable flowers are needed for one kilogram of saffron, which is why saffron is one of the rarest and most expensive spices in the world.

What is special about Saffr‘Activ®?

Saffr'Activ® is a patented saffron extract from France, obtained from the best parts of the red stigmas of Crocus sativus. With a unique standardization, it contains at least 3% crocin and at least 2% safranal. Crocins are water-soluble carotenoids and are responsible for the yellow color of saffron. Safranal, a monoterpene aldehyde, is responsible for the unique saffron aroma. Saffr'Activ® guarantees 100% purity and is free from GMOs, pesticides, allergens, and heavy metals.

How do magnesium and vitamin B12 support the Saffron-2-Complex?

Saffron-2-Complex is additionally enriched with magnesium and vitamin B12. The vitamin B12 included is present in the forms of hydroxycobalamin and methylcobalamin, both bioactive, meaning they can be directly absorbed and utilized by the body without the need for conversion. Magnesium and vitamin B12 support energy metabolism and contribute to the normal functioning of the nervous system and the reduction of fatigue.

What is Probiostress™?

Probiostress™ is a combination of lacto- and bifidobacteria as well as saffron extract. This formulation contains a stable mixture of saffron extract (Saffr'Activ®) and two probiotic strains. These ingredients have been carefully selected to support the composition of the intestinal flora.
