Croc, Crocetin: Click to Expand ⟱
Features:
Crocetin is a carotenoid pigment found in saffron (Crocus sativus) and has been studied for its potential anti-cancer properties. Research has shown that crocetin may have anti-tumor and anti-proliferative effects, inhibiting the growth of various types of cancer cells.
The mechanisms by which crocetin exerts its anti-cancer effects are not fully understood, but it is thought to involve:

• Inhibition of cell proliferation and induction of apoptosis (cell death)
• Modulation of signaling pathways involved in cell growth and survival
• Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects
• Inhibition of angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels that feed cancer cells)

Crocetin is a LDH inhibitor.
