Description
Overview of health benefits FLORASSIST® Mood Improve combines innovative probiotics Lactobacillus helveticus strain R0052 and Bifidobacterium longum strain R0175 with a saffron extract standardised to support emotional health and help maintain a balanced mood. Why does it work? What you feel is closely linked to digestive health due to the two-way communication between the gut (gastrointestinal tract) and the brain. It has been shown that a combination of two probiotics influences this connection by improving a healthy mental attitude and promoting natural relaxation . The science behind the product Emotional health and probiotics Clinical and preclinical studies indicate that gut microbes can promote mood and behaviour by affecting the gut-brain axis (CNS), a complex communication network linking your gut to your brain. And the two probiotics in this formula are particularly effective for supporting your emotional health. In two randomised controlled trials, participants taking a blend of Lactobacillus helveticus Rosell-52 and Bifidobacterium longum Rosell-175 reported significant improvements in mood , a reduction in perceived stress and support for emotional balance compared with placebo. (1,2) These strains have also shown relief of stress-related gastrointestinal discomfort . (3) Standardised saffron extract Life Extension® has developed an exclusive extract of the popular spice saffron, standardised for the two compounds safranal and crocin , as compelling research indicates that saffron compounds support mood health. Meta-analyses covering up to eight trials have shown that the use of saffron extract is associated with better results on mood tests compared with placebo or active controls. (4-7) The highest standardisation level in the clinical studies above was 11 % for crocin and 2 % for safranal. As these concentrations are not readily available on the market, Life Extension® has worked with saffron sources to create an exclusive blend specifically for this formulation.
