Description

Saffron is commonly known as the world’s most expensive spice due to the high amount of labor needed to produce the spice from the plant itself. Using Saffron in food will have the same effects as supplementation, but it can be very difficult to get the dose right when using it this way so its typically recommended to use a standardized extract instead. Double Wood’s Saffron is a standardized extract with a 0.3% Safranal content.

Benefits

  • APPETITE CONTROL — CLINICALLY STUDIED: Multiple studies have shown that supplemental saffron extract may support healthy appetite by reducing snacking frequency and overall food intake. Research attributes this effect to saffron's active crocins, which appear to influence serotonin availability and satiety signaling. The recommended dose for appetite support is 1–2 capsules (30–60mg) per day on an empty stomach.
  • SUPPORTS EYE HEALTH: Saffron Extract contains high concentrations of carotenoids that may support optimal eye health
  • MOOD AND ANXIETY SUPPORT — 30MG DAILY DOSE: Multiple peer-reviewed studies have shown that 30mg of saffron extract per day (1 capsule) may support mood and reduce feelings of anxiety. Saffron's active crocins and safranal appear to influence serotonin availability — the same neurotransmitter pathway targeted by some prescription mood medications — making it one of the more studied natural compounds for emotional wellbeing.
  • USAGE GUIDANCE — CYCLE FOR BEST RESULTS: Saffron is best taken on an empty stomach — 1 capsule (30mg) per day for mood support, or 1–2 capsules (30–60mg) for appetite control. To maintain effectiveness and minimize tolerance, it is generally recommended to cycle saffron: use it daily for up to 8 weeks, then take a 2-week break before resuming. Do not exceed 2 capsules (60mg) per day.
  • WE BOTTLE WELLNESS: At Double Wood, we provide pure, potent supplements that deliver exceptional value, all backed by careful sourcing and rigorous third-party testing

Directions & Dosage

Its generally recommended to cycle Saffron, meaning it should not be used for longer than 8 weeks straight and its recommended to take 2 weeks off after using it daily for 8 weeks.

Benefits

Saffron

Double Wood's Saffron Extract is derived from the dried stigmas of Crocus sativus flowers and standardized to 0.3% safranal — the volatile compound primarily responsible for saffron's aroma and its studied effects on mood and the central nervous system.

Saffron contains three key active compound groups:

Safranal (standardized to 0.3%): The aromatic compound linked to mood support and its possible influence on serotonin reuptake and GABA receptors.

Crocins: Water-soluble carotenoids (crocin and crocetin) linked to antioxidant protection, eye health support, and appetite-regulating effects via serotonin pathways.

Picrocrocin: The bitter glycoside precursor to safranal, contributing to the bioactive compound profile of the extract.

Saffron makes me angry

"This product is interesting… I’ve noticed it makes me irritable … very strange. I would t recommend mixing it with any other supplements. I don’t think saffron mixes well. Can have unwanted side effects. Only take it alone."

Laila V. (5/5)

"Leaves a bag aftertaste that lingers for a long time after swallowing."

Liz (2/5)

"Great product"

Jerel (5/5)

Saffron Extract Content

"I noticed the capsule is a different color than last order. Has the formula changed? I stopped buying from Amazon because of reviews stating the pill is different in color and consistency. I have found so many “fakes” on Amazon that I now purchase ALL my supplements from the manufacture! The same goes for personal care products, makeup and moisturizer's!"

Gersey L. (4/5)
