Natural Support to Brighten Your Mood
WHAT IS HAPPY SAFFRON PLUS?
Happy Saffron Plus was scientifically designed to promote positive mood. It brings together nutraceutical preparations of the two most traditionally revered “happiness herbals” – saffron flower extract and curcumin from turmeric root – with zinc, a mineral essential for life and vital for positive mood.
WHY YOU NEED IT
In the U.S., at least 1 in 5 people endure serious mood problems and at least 1 in 4 experience significant feelings of anxiety. Happy Saffron Plus was developed from clinical research with three nutraceuticals for improving mood, coping with anxious feelings, and enhancing focus while under mental strain.
WHAT’S IN HAPPY SAFFRON PLUS?
Happy Saffron Plus offers three potent, mood supporting ingredients:
- affron® saffron: a highly concentrated, standardized saffron extract found to improve mood, anxiousness, and sleep quality in double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials
- Longvida® Optimized Curcumin: an efficiently absorbed, standardized curcumin concentrate that lessened fatigue and frustration while improving performance on a mentally demanding test
- Zinc, as glycinate: a mineral vital for life and essential for at least 300 enzymes, concentrated mostly in the brain and helping regulate brain circuits linked to healthy mood
WHAT MAKES IT SPECIAL?
The combination of zinc with affron® saffron and Longvida® curcumin has the potential to improve mood, perhaps even in individuals who don’t feel they have a mood problem. All three of these ingredients are documented to improve mood in controlled human clinical trials.

Ingredients
affron® saffron
30 mg
This is a highly concentrated and standardized nutraceutical extract of saffron, a spice that has been used in the Middle East for at least 2600 years. In clinical trials at a dose of 28 mg per day, this extract has performed extremely well for improving mood and anxiousness in both adults and adolescents.
LONGVIDA® Curcumin
400 mg
The turmeric root parallels saffron as an Asian happiness herbal for at least 2600 years. This ingredient features excellent absorption of curcumin and has worked excellently in clinical trials at 400 mg per day or higher.
Zinc
20 mg
This mineral is essential for the functioning of about 2000 different human proteins, of which at least 300 are enzymes. People with mood problems typically have low blood levels and supplementing with zinc often enhances mood.
Make Your Brain (& Body) Happy
The benefits of saffron are endless. Saffron has been used in Eastern medicine for thousands of years as a powerful antioxidant and aphrodisiac. Today, the “happiness spice” is recognized worldwide for its distinctive ability to improve mood and relieve feelings of anxiousness in both adults and adolescents.*1-3
Because of its powerful aphrodisiac properties, saffron is used in many natural libido supplements.* But not all saffron supplements are created equal. Much of what’s sold today is loaded with other plants and artificial substances. That’s why we formulated our saffron supplement with the purest ingredients available.*
Award-Winning Saffron Extract
affron® Saffron Extract is the most awarded and clinically backed saffron ingredient worldwide. It works fast – generally in 1 hour – to alleviate oxidative stress, balance neurotransmitters, facilitate neuroplasticity, and deliver hard-hitting brain and body benefits like better memory and improved sexual function.*4
affron® is the best studied saffron for mood.* In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, affron® intake of 28 mg/day for 4 weeks improved mood while helping to alleviate occasional stress, frustration, and tension by 41%, compared to placebo.*5
• OUR CEO SAYS •
“This is my favorite product I take every day. The ingredients in Happy Saffron Plus are backed by 24 randomized control trials, but the reason I fell in love with this formula is that it supports mood, memory, and sexual function.”
- Daniel G. Amen, MD
READ Why It Didn’t Make the Cut
Iron is a mineral essential for human health. It is typically linked to hemoglobin – the protein that transports oxygen around the body – and is also vital for energy production, antioxidant defense, DNA production, gene regulation, and the body’s detoxification process.Though commonly found in multivitamins, we purposely left it out.As a standalone supplement ingredient for those at risk of deficiency, iron is beneficial – we offer advanced iron in its most well-tolerated and well-absorbed form: ferrous bisglycinate, Ferrochel®. However, when combined with other nutrients (like it is in a comprehensive multivitamin), iron’s chemically reactive nature can degrade and potentially destroy the other ingredients it’s mixed with.Here’s everything else we intentionally left out.

“I got my DREAMS back!”
- Claire R., Verified Buyer
Cutting-Edge Curcumin
Longvida® curcumin is 95x more bioavailable than standard curcumin extracts and is the only curcumin extract in the world to use cutting-edge SLCP™ Technology to increase curcumin absorption.* Shown to be the most effective curcumin on the market, Longvida® is patented for cognition and anti-aging.* And, unlike many other forms of curcumin, it can effectively cross the blood-brain barrier.*
Clinical research shows that 400 mg of Longvida® supports cognition, memory, mood, and attention while reducing stress reactivity and fatigue.*6,7 Also, the same dosage supports a 16% increase in working memory within just 1 hour of taking the first dose!*6
• OUR CEO SAYS •
“A really awesome quote from Dr, Amen about how awesome this product is.”
- Daniel G. Amen, MD
Get Happy (Without Side Effects!)
Zinc is an essential micronutrient crucial to more than 300 enzymatic reactions.*8,9 The body needs zinc to make energy, DNA and proteins, antioxidant enzymes, and to make new cells for immunity and healthy growth and development.*10
