Pharmacology

Saffron (Crocus sativus) is an indigenous plant of southern Europe and south-western Asia. The main active constituents in saffron stigmas are crocin, safranal, crocetin and picrocrocin. It has antidepressant, neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Clinical study suggests that Saffron acts as a mood enhancer and antidepressant by up-regulating dopamine, norepinephrine and serotonin levels in the brain. Saffron has a high affinity for hippocampus of the brain and it switches off chronic inflammation in the hippocampus. It also increases neural-plasticity to form new neural connections. Saffron relieves different symptoms of major depressive disorders such as weight loss or excessive weight gain, sleep disturbance, anhedonia, impaired cognition, sadness and loss of productivity at work. Saffron also helps to prevent recurrence of depression.
