Your ideal saffron extract powder manufacturer
This Crocetin Powder is derived from the dried stigmas of Crocus sativus L., the saffron flower. Through standardized extraction and purification processes, we transform these deep-red stigmas into a stable, high-purity active ingredient. Every batch of saffron extract powder retains the authentic phytochemical profile intrinsic to this precious botanical source. Saffron extract powder supports the body's natural defences against oxidative stress and helps maintain balanced inflammatory responses. It supports healthy energy, normal cardiovascular function, positive mood, and skin resilience against environmental ageing factors. Our saffron extract is clean-label formulated: no artificial additives or preservatives, non-irradiated, allergen-free (gluten, soy, dairy, nuts), vegan-friendly, and highly bioavailable with optimized particle size for superior absorption.

FAQ
Here are some common frequently asked questions (FAQs) about crocetin extract powder:
Q1. How is crocetin different from crocin?
A: The difference between them is as follows:
1) Crocin is a glycosylated form of crocetin (attached to sugar molecules) and is water-soluble.
2) Crocetin is the aglycone (non-sugar) form and is fat-soluble. Crocin is absorbed more efficiently in the intestines after hydrolysis.
Q2. How is crocetin absorbed in the body?
A: Crocetin is absorbed in the intestines after crocin is broken down. It is then metabolized into glucuronide conjugates in the liver.
Q3. How should crocetin extract powder be stored?
A: Keep in a cool, dry place (2-8°C). Protect from light and moisture, as it is sensitive to degradation.
Q4. Can crocetin be taken with other supplements or medications?
A: May interact with antidepressants or blood pressure medications. Consult a healthcare professional before combining with other supplements.
Q5. Where can I find high-quality crocetin extract powder?
A: Look for third-party tested products with verified purity (e.g., HPLC-tested). Reputable suppliers include those specializing in saffron extract powder.
