Saffron Mood Support Randomized TrialBackground/Objectives: The global prevalence of mental health disorders, particularly anxiety and depression, has increased significantly, with rates further elevated by the COVID-19 pandemic.2Dormal V (2025)The Effects of Combined Scutellaria and Saffron Supplementation on Mood Regulation in Participants with Mild-to-Moderate Depressive Symptoms: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study.
Saffron Mood Support Randomized TrialConventional pharmacological treatments, while effective, often lead to side effects that can impact patient adherence and quality of life.2Dormal V (2025)The Effects of Combined Scutellaria and Saffron Supplementation on Mood Regulation in Participants with Mild-to-Moderate Depressive Symptoms: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study.
Saffron Mood Support Randomized TrialBehavioral analysis revealed that cold stress significantly impaired memory and increased anxiety-like behavior, whereas oral supplementation of saffron extract reduced anxiety, improved spontaneous alternation and enhanced object recognition memory.4Priya V (2026)<i>Crocus sativus</i> improves cognitive functions and reduces anxiety-like behavior in aged rats exposed to chronic cold temperature-induced stress.
Saffron Mood Support Randomized TrialConclusion Saffron extract enhances neurobehavioral functions, significantly ameliorating cold stress-induced cognitive deficits and anxiety-like behavior.4Priya V (2026)<i>Crocus sativus</i> improves cognitive functions and reduces anxiety-like behavior in aged rats exposed to chronic cold temperature-induced stress.
Saffron Mood Support Randomized TrialIntroduction Chronic cold stress acts as an influential environmental stressor that disrupts neuro-behavioral functions, which include anxiety responses, cognitive performance, mood regulation, and stress susceptibility.4Priya V (2026)<i>Crocus sativus</i> improves cognitive functions and reduces anxiety-like behavior in aged rats exposed to chronic cold temperature-induced stress.
Saffron Mood Support Randomized TrialIn spite of the growing recognition of cold-induced neuropathology, effective therapeutic strategies remain limited.4Priya V (2026)<i>Crocus sativus</i> improves cognitive functions and reduces anxiety-like behavior in aged rats exposed to chronic cold temperature-induced stress.
