Nootropics Depot High Potency Saffron Extract Capsules | 30mg | Minimum 7.5% Crocins and 1% Safranals | Crocus sativus | 180 ct

Not sure what their method of extraction is but it's different or more thorough. Comparing different brands to this, you will notice the smell of this is very clean and spice like. The color of this is also orangish-red. Other brands are green or brown powder which means there is green plant matter getting in there or the extraction process is affecting the saffron color. Their smells also aren't as pure. As for the effectiveness, it's also unmatched. It very noticeably gives a solid motivational oomph. I found Saffron from some pubmed studies comparisons to methylphenidate(Concerta, Ritalin). This feel as close to a real ADHD medication as plant extracts can get (so far). Interestingly, it can also be used to regulate sleep. I have taken before bed and it does not keep you up. It doesn't make you fall asleep either but it does feel like properly structured sleep once awake. A+

This is a weird supplement. It's one of the only supplements that you can actually feel doing something. I really didn't like it my first day, it felt strangely like an antidepressant. Emotionally flat and I just felt off. My reading suggests most people don't experience that, and that I got unlucky. I powered through it and now I feel amazing. It's honestly shocking how noticeable saffron extracts benefits are- for me it's all day energy, improved mood, improved focus, and conversation sharpness. The capsules themselves are extremely tiny and easy to take, but the potency is there. The smell is super strong and I hear some find it off-putting, and for me it does upset my stomach and kill appetite. Overall it's a good quality extract for the price.

I'm on a Glp1. I notice a flat affect about life and was having some really emotional days. Not depressed but just sad. I also hadn't been finding a lot of joy. On my 3rd week of this and yes yes yes....I have seen a huge change in my happiness. Laughing more and motivated. I started cooking again, which is happy place. I feel I have more creativity and motivation for life. Thank you.

Taking the recommended dose alongside breakfast (I empty the capsule into juice and drink), I instantly felt the effects come on and slowly reached the peak effects about an hour or two in. I noticed an increase in motivation, energy and alertness, a mood boost, and a calm focus that lasted nearly the whole day. I felt like I could think more clearly. I take this supplement once a week and highly recommend. I’d also like to state that I advise against taking more than the recommended dose, as 30mg seems perfect. I tried taking two one time and for many hours, I had a headache, felt overly focused, too alert, and got pain in my abdomen.

Absolutely love this stuff. In a better mood all day when I take these. Patience level has dramatically increased.

Nootropics Depot has the most potent Saffron product on the Market. This little pill chills me out within 10 minutes of taking one.

I'm just about finished with my first bottle, so I've taken this for nearly 2 months. It had zero positive effects and didn't do anything for me that it claims. I was hoping it would improve my mood, energy levels, and focus, but it did not. It did nothing for appetite control. The only thing I did notice was bloating and upset stomach in the first few weeks of taking it. Those side effects eventually subsided though. It does have a strong saffron spice taste. I was trying to be optimistic and give it time to work before leaving a review, but unfortunately it never did anything for me. I won't be purchasing again.
