Crocus sativus L. Extract and Its Constituents by Nikolaos Pitsikas
Natural products or organic compounds isolated from natural sources as primary or
secondary metabolites have inspired numerous drugs. It is not an overstatement that the
majority of medicines in clinics, even in the 21st century, have been derived from natural
resources despite the decline of industry research into natural products due to a variety
of drawbacks. Saffron crocus, considered to be the most valuable spice by weight, and its
bioactive constituents, have been studied for the treatment of a wide range of
pathologies, including neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders, cancer,
diabetes, and even cardiovascular diseases. In this book on the chemistry, pharmacology,
and therapeutic potential of Crocus sativus L. extract and its constituents, we aimed to
assess new advances in the understanding of the therapeutic action of saffron and its
constituents in targeting different pathologies. In this context, eight original research
articles covering recent advances in the therapeutic actions of saffron and its ingredients
in different diseases are reported. Two studies reporting novel methods regarding the
bioanalysis of saffron extracts have been included. The collection is completed with two
very interesting reviews reporting advances in the fields of schizophrenia and cancer. In
conclusion, in this book, we are delighted to have received several contributions that we
hope will provide new and interesting information for the scientific community on the
chemistry, pharmacology, and therapeutic potential of Crocus sativus L. extract and its
constituents.

"I was paying $11.99/month for Kindle Unlimited but realized I was renting books, not owning them. Bought this PDF and it's mine forever. Never going back to Kindle."
"Switched from Kindle to these PDFs. Same book, but I actually OWN it now. No monthly fees, no app required. Worth every penny."
"Kindle Unlimited kept raising prices. This is a one-time purchase and the file is permanently on my iPad. Best decision I've made for my reading habit."
"I compared Kindle vs this store. Kindle is cheaper monthly but you don't own anything. Here I paid once and the PDF is mine for life. Highly recommend."
"Left Kindle behind after they removed a book I was reading mid-series. With this PDF, nobody can take it away from me. True ownership feels good."
"Was skeptical about paying $18.95 when Kindle shows $3.99, but then I did the math — Kindle Unlimited is $143/year! This is way better value long term."
"Love that I can read this on any device without installing the Kindle app. The PDF works on my laptop, phone, and tablet seamlessly. So much freedom."
"My Kindle subscription was getting expensive. Switched to buying PDFs here and I'm saving money while actually building a permanent digital library I control."
