Saffron is powerful—a little goes a long way. Culinary use requires just a pinch, while clinical trials for mood and sleep often use 28–30 mg/day of standardized extract. Understanding the difference helps you enjoy saffron safely.
Clinical studies on saffron for sleep, mood, and PMS typically use 28–30 mg/day of standardized extract (equivalent to about 0.5 g of threads in potency). Duration: 4–8 weeks.
