Life Extension Optimized Saffron, 60 vegetarian capsules

Saffron extract helps you resist between-meal snacking, late-night cravings and the urge to stress-eat.1 Randomized, placebo-controlled study Satiereal is a novel extract of saffron stigma that was tested in a randomized, placebo-controlled study to determine whether it could combat snacking and enhance satiety (and thus contribute to healthy weight management) in a group of otherwise-healthy, mildly overweight women.2 At the beginning of the study, all participants matched each other closely in terms of age, body weight and reported snacking habits. This double-blind study evaluated Satiereal’s effect on body weight changes over an eight-week period, and the results were very encouraging.2 Weight loss in just eight weeks The women in the study recorded their experiences in a nutrition diary. They consumed either Satiereal or a matching placebo twice a day. Caloric intake was left unrestricted during the study. The Satiereal group reported significantly lower snacking frequency after just 8 weeks of supplementation. Weight loss was also better than the placebo group.2
