Safr'Inside microtabs is a prototype dietary supplement providing quick and effective relief for mood irregularities within 20 minutes, thanks to a sublingual administration and the highest content in safranal.
Contrary to classic dosage forms, Safr'Inside microtabs are presented in an original microtablet form. The sublingual administration of the microtablet induces a direct and quicker diffusion of saffron metabolites (including safranal) into the blood circulation, reaching rapidly the brain to positively act on mood regulators and neurotransmitters.
Each stick of 400 mg contains 30 mg of Safr’Inside, the optimal dose demonstrated to have beneficial effect on mood. Safr’inside is a patented extract of Iranian saffron stigmas whose chemical profile is backed by ten clinical studies published on its mood benefits.
Extracted from the reddest part of saffron stigmas (Sargol quality), Safr’Inside provides the richest concentrations in safranal, crocin and safromotivines.
The product has been developed for people prone to mood swings, which currently affects more than 150 million people around the world1 (Qureshi et al. 2013). About 27% of Europeans, 47% of Americans and 41% of Asians currently experience mental health issues such as nervousness, stress and anxiety.
Safr’Inside microtabs satisfies consumer demand, as it represents an efficient science-backed natural mood stabiliser, providing quick benefits.
