Digestive health

The digestive system is made up of various organs. Working together with nerves, hormones, bacteria and blood, they digest foods and liquids. Different factors can affect this system and disrupt digestion. Everyone experiences occasional digestive issue and when these symptoms occur frequently, they can cause major life disruptions. Fortunately, diet changes and health supplements can have a positive impact on digestive health.

Digestive health

Crocus sativus L.

Saffron has been used in the traditional medicine to ensure a healthy digestion and in the treatment of hepatic disorders, flatulence, vomiting and spasm.

Benefits

Serotonin signaling may be altered in gastrointestinal disorders. Saffron is thus an efficient solution to increase Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) patient’s quality of life, via the amplification of serotonin. Saffron also has antimicrobial properties against E. coli and acts on smooth muscle relaxation.

Clinical evidences

In a double-blind, randomized clinical study, Saffron extract was shown to be as effective as fluoxetine to improve IBS sufferers’ quality of life. A double-blind placebo controlled randomized clinical study has also shown a decrease in severity of ulcerative colitis.
