Nootropics depot has a 30mg standardized extract containing 7.5% Crocins, 1% safranals. 60ct. Capsules For $23 or 180ct. For $50. I’m not affiliated just thought this could help someone find a quality product.

Most of my life I suffered with endometriosis pain and fibromyalgia. I took opioids everyday for 15 plus years to deal with it. I never thought I would be pain free and be able to get off opioids without detoxing. I started talking saffron. I would crush it into a powder and put it in a size 5 pill capsule. I took up to 10 a day depending how I felt. In a few months I wasn’t having the pain I used to and I started to take less pain pills. After a few more months I realized I wasn’t in pain and I was almost off opioids with no withdrawal symptoms at all! . I was completely pain free and off opioids in about 7 months. And my mood is great. I still take the saffron randomly to fight depression. A few pills and you will notice a mood change!

They already did double-blind placebos with Saffron and it turned out Saffron does, indeed, fights depression.

I agree with the doctor thinking about supplements first! Most psychological issues are due to deficiencies in our bodies that most doctors don’t even test for. Please understand this is based on my personal experience and research.

So in over 20 years of nursing I’ve only seen 2 cases of serotonin syndrome. Our medication from big pharmaceutical companies get their medicine from herbs and plants and charge us out the ass for it. So our pills do come from plants and herbs.

You absolutely should cover supplements in an episode (or more)…. Mg, Omega 3, 5-HTP, SAMe, creatine etc..

I’m going to try and grow my own saffron so glad to find this video. I wonder if in the studies they were eating food with saffron. When you were talking about not bio hacking everything it made me think about how sharing a meal with someone is one of the best antidepressants I know.

Being from iran that produces 90% of zafran, it is one of the main spices in our cousin, it's a fact we know it is a mood booster it contains the same chemical properties that is used in laughing gas, so one should not. take too much of it it can kill you by laughing, no joke . So about supplements, I don't know about it, but it makes sense 😊

This is my 4th day trying saffron. So far so good. Have had a better week than most over the past few months, but I’m also widdling down on other meds and incorporating other daily things like meditation. I got mine from Lumanutrition. Its $20 and you only take it twice a day so I don’t think that’s too expensive or too many times a day.

So i totally found this video interesting. I was recently diagnosed with ADHD and Minor Depression. I don’t have insurance so I ordered Saffron Extract Supplements for a 7 month supply for less than $30. And Serving is one capsule a day. So for me this is a better option. I just got it today so I will start taking tomorrow. Hoping I will see some relief. The results have been good, so I shall see.

The pills you are giving your patients are on a trial basis so what is the difference with trying them on saffron? At least it's a low expense and natural.

I take the 30mg once a day and for me, it still works as well as duloxetine with no sexual side effects.

Unfortunately, some doctors want to protect their business. They invested many years in education and if there is some supplement that is more effective than what they can prescribe....

How many threads of saffron shud one take for depression and anxiety

When I hear it's not approved by the FDA, I cringe 😬 Just listening to the excessive ads on TV and their side effects makes me nauseated. For me, the FDA is not a body of confidence. 😢

Does anyone know the mechanism how it actually boosts mood and neurotransmitters? I would like to try it but I already tried DL-phenylalanine, L-tyrosine, mucuna pruriens and St John's wort with no success, I believe its because I'm taking valproic acid which boosts gaba too much and stops the supplements from working. I did feel great for 3 days when I took N-acetyl cysteine then it stopped working for some reason.

Im on 100mg Zoloft for Anxiety/OCD. I have a little bit of sexual side effects but mainly experience lack of motivation. What do you guys recommend?

One of the best saffron in the world grows in the Herat region of Afghanistan. I can help if anyone wants.

Why no doctor talk about pssd related to ssri?

About weightlifting, would it also be helpful for post-menopausal women too?

I haven’t had time to listen yet. Was the saffron successful? How much to take and how to take it? Good with Abilify?

Can you take saffron while you are taking Zoloft??

What is the best time to take it morning or at night?

Great content

omg the unprofessionalism and annoyance of Millennials....make it stop..
