Saffron is a well-known culinary herb used for centuries. Recent research indicates that saffron can help support a positive mood, a relaxed attitude, and may also promote restful sleep. In addition, it may help support a balanced immune response and is a powerful free radical neutralizer. NOW® uses only whole saffron stigma powder, not an extract.
