A blend of KSM-66® Ashwagandha, Saffron and Zinc Bisglycinate to encourage endogenous testosterone production and healthy mood
As we age, there is a natural decline in the production of sex hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. Unfortunately, these hormonal changes can be accompanied by a number of unpleasant symptoms. For example, low testosterone production, also known as andropause, often manifests itself through symptoms of low muscle mass, reduced strength, decreased libido, mood fluctuations, cognitive impairment, and an overall reduced quality of life. This is where Saffron Matrix comes in. Saffron Matrix has been specifically formulated to support healthy testosterone levels and its associated symptoms, including imbalanced and mood fluctuations.
Saffron Matrix includes KSM-66® Ashwagandha, a proprietary full-spectrum extract of withania root with extensive clinical research to support its use for stress-related health issues. Through a patented alcohol- and solvent-free extraction process that took over a decade to perfect, KSM-66® is able to retain high concentrations of both hydrophilic and lipophilic components from the raw root. KSM-66® is unique among other ashwagandha root extracts because it has been specifically studied and shown to improve sperm parameters, muscle strength, testosterone levels in men, and sexual function in women. KSM-66® also has over 20 human clinical trials to support its effectiveness in the areas of memory and cognition, stress reduction, improved thyroid function, and weight management.
Crocus sativus, more commonly known as saffron, is a traditional spice that is now known to have multiple health applications. Its ability to block NMDA receptors and protect the nervous system likely explains why saffron has undergone several human clinical trials to demonstrate its effectiveness in promoting a healthy mood, even compared to traditional selective serotonin uptake inhibitor (SSRI) therapy, and also in supporting cognitive function. Additionally, saffron has traditionally been used as an aphrodisiac. Modern research has confirmed that it can effectively improve symptoms of erectile dysfunction and overall sexual function, while also improving sperm parameters. Collectively, these actions strongly support the use of saffron for the male population and those suffering from andropause. Zinc's reputation as an immune-boosting mineral is well-deserved; however, it is highly indicated for healthy mood balance and hormonal support. Zinc deficiency in men, in particular, can negatively affect sperm parameters, and it is one of the few nutrients shown to contribute to low testosterone levels. Additionally, zinc supplementation has been shown to increase brain-derived neurotrophic factor and block NMDA receptors in the brain, augmenting SSRI therapy and ultimately improving subjective mood markers.
Overall, Saffron Matrix has been formulated to provide evidence-based dosages of KSM-66® Ashwagandha, saffron, and zinc to optimally support healthy testosterone levels and mood in men. Each bottle contains 60 vegetarian capsules.
