| Saffron Extract Powder is a natural ingredient extracted from the stigma of Crocus sativus L., a plant of the Iridaceae family. Its core active ingredients are crocins, safranal, and picrocrocin. These ingredients give it antioxidant, antidepressant, and anti-inflammatory properties. As "red gold," its high price comes from manual picking and complex processing (about 75,000 flowers are needed for every 450 grams). Its main application areas include dietary supplements, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and functional foods. |
