Saffron may not be the first herb that comes to mind when you think of mood-balancing supplements. Yet it’s one of the most rigorously researched. Just beware: not all saffron on the market is genuine.
Saffron, often referred to as “botanical gold,” is frequently adulterated with inexpensive plants, minerals, or artificial substances because of its costly nature. That’s why Natural Factors uses only Affron® saffron extract, a 100% pure source of standardized saffron extract that has been DNA certified for authenticity and has undergone study in multiple clinical trials.
