Definitions

  • This invention relates to the use of the active ingredients of saffron, in particular safranal, crocin, picrocrocin and derivatives thereof, for an application as a satiation agent.
  • a satiation agent is useful in particular for the treatment of obesity, for reducing or at least controlling the intake of calories consumed daily so as to regulate body weight.
  • a satiation agent will allow the consumer, based on the alteration of the sensation of fullness, to control his physical appearance and/or to treat his health problems linked to overweight.
  • the current diet is low in fruits and vegetables but in contrast very high in fat and heavy on sugar, meat and alcohol.
  • water consumption is gradually being replaced by the consumption of sugary carbonated beverages.
  • This dietary malnutrition brings about an increase in the number of calories consumed daily and thus a possible weight gain.
  • An invasive solution consists in the installation of a gastric ring so as to separate the stomach into two parts. Although this solution causes the sensation of hunger to disappear upon the ingestion of the first mouthfuls of a meal, the fact remains that this solution is used only in cases of extreme overweight. In addition, the risk of this surgical operation is significant.
  • Another approach in the treatment of overweight is the use of satiation agents so as to reduce the intake of energy, and therefore the weight.
  • the latter are most often contained in the food product that is to be consumed.
  • satiation agents are released directly into the stomach (WO 02/00042), and others act in different parts of the intestine so as to modify the response of the ileal brake (U.S. Pat. No. 6,267,988, U.S. Pat. No. 5,753,253, DE 2701361) or else some increase secretion of ⁇ -MSH by inhibiting the reuptake of dopamine or serotonin.
  • the document WO 01/17541 discloses a composition that comprises proteins, a high level of calcium, long-chain fatty acids, and an inhibitor source of the protease that is extracted from the potato so as to induce satiation.
  • the document WO 01/17377 discloses polysaccharides that contain uronic acid and that are cross-linked to one another so as to form a sponge-type structure that dissolves poorly in water, in stomach fluids and in the intestine or can be poorly resorbed. This composition has the purpose of providing a satiation effect.
  • US 2006/0040003 describes a composition for improving the satiation before and after the meal by raising the level of serotonin.
  • This composition comprises natural substances such as, i.a., niacin, vitamin B6, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, chitosan, and ginseng.
  • compositions as described in the prior art have various drawbacks: the sensation of fullness does not always last very long.
  • the food preparations (soups, bars) that contain the products are generally not very appetizing for the consumer.
  • these compositions are not always easy to produce; some actually are not stable during the production process and/or storage, altering the taste, the odor and the texture of the final product.
  • they optionally can have detrimental interactions with other active substances such as vitamins or minerals.
  • products that contain synthetic chemical compounds, such as polymers tend to discourage the consumer from purchasing them. This is why natural compounds are preferred.
  • Saffron is known in the prior art only as a stimulator of the gastric function, bitterness regulator, in particular after the intake of peppers (JP 2005 143308), or else it is used so as to improve the aroma in perfume compositions (EP 0162465).
  • the invention has as its object to propose a new use of saffron and its active ingredients that have numerous qualities and that make it possible to avoid all or part of the above-mentioned drawbacks.
  • the invention has as its object to bring about a sensation of fullness in the overweight person, and even to treat the weight problems effectively without harmful secondary effects on the body, and without the consumer needing to modify his lifestyle or his dietary regimen.
  • the invention relates to the use of saffron and/or its active ingredients: saffron and/or picrocrocin and/or crocin and/or derivatives thereof in the production of an active satiation agent for the management and/or treatment of overweight.
  • the invention also relates to the use of saffron and/or its active ingredients: safranal and/or picrocrocin and/or crocin and/or derivatives thereof in the production of an active satiation agent for the management and/or the treatment of dietary problems, compulsive nibbling cravings linked to stress and/or depression.
  • the invention also has as its object the use of saffron and/or its active ingredients: safranal and/or picrocrocin and/or crocin and/or derivatives thereof for the production of an active satiation agent for the treatment of obesity.
  • Another object of the invention relates to the use of saffron and/or its active ingredients: safranal and/or picrocrocin and/or crocin and/or derivatives thereof for the production of an active satiation agent to help the overweight individual to reduce or control his daily calorie intake and/or to control his body weight and/or his physical appearance.
  • the invention also has as its object the use of saffron and/or its active ingredients: safranal and/or picrocrocin and/or crocin and/or derivatives thereof, in which this or these active ingredient(s) are combined with at least one inert excipient or vehicle, nontoxic, pharmaceutically and/or dietarily acceptable, making it possible to administer it orally.
  • Another object of the invention is the use of saffron and/or its active ingredients: safranal and/or picrocrocin and/or crocin and/or derivatives thereof, in which this or these active ingredient(s) come(s) in the form of a solution or an aqueous suspension in a glass ampoule, in a beverage, in a dropper bottle, in a spray or in the dry state of coated or uncoated tablets, gel capsules, capsules, powders, effervescent tablets, granules, strips, or lozenges.
  • the content of safranal and/or picrocrocin and/or crocin and/or derivatives thereof is selected for an administration of between 0.05 mg/day and 100 mg/day, preferably between 0.2 mg/day and 10 mg/day.
  • the content of safranal and/or picrocrocin and/or crocin and/or derivatives thereof within the satiation agent is between 0.01 and 50%—preferably between 0.05 and 20%, and more particularly between 0.1 and 10%—by weight, relative to the total weight of the satiation agent when the latter is found in solid form or relative to the volume of the satiation agent when the latter is found in liquid form.
  • the active ingredients of saffron are extracted by hydrodistillation followed by liquid/liquid extraction by polar and apolar organic solvents or by a vacuum microwave hydrodistillation (VMHD) or else by an extraction with supercritical CO 2 or with ultrasound, or with ion exchange resins with co-solvents and solvents of polar and/or apolar elution, or else by the set of solid/liquid extraction followed by liquid/liquid extractions.

  • BMI body mass index
  • the active ingredients of saffron are extracted from a plant, the Safran Crocus sativus L ., and more particularly stigmata of this plant. It is also possible to extract these active ingredients from other plants, such as Yucca periculosa, Ditaxis heterantha, Cuminum cyminum, Gardenia jasminoides or Camelia Sinensis.
  • the process that is used is known to one skilled in the art. It involves a first hydrodistillation stage, followed next by a second liquid/liquid extraction stage.
  • the hydrodistillation is used to extract the essential oil from the water-immiscible plant.
  • the essence is entrained by the vapor in the form of a heteroazeotrope.
  • the boiling point of the mixture is less than 100°.
  • a mixture of organic substances and water is thus recovered. It is also possible to use pulsed vacuum microwave hydrodistillation (VMHD).
  • VMHD pulsed vacuum microwave hydrodistillation
  • the liquid/liquid extraction is carried out by close contact of the solvent with the solution in equipment that is designed to mix the two phases (ampoules, columns, mixers).
  • the separation of the phases is achieved by gravimetric decanting or centrifuging.
  • the solvents that are used for the extraction are water and ethanol or else ethyl acetate, hexane, petroleum ether, acetone, or methanol.
  • the extraction of safranal, as well as other natural active ingredients of saffron, can also be done using supercritical CO 2 , ideally at 100° C. and 20 MPa.
  • a syrupy liquid product deep garnet red in color with iridescent reflections, is obtained at ambient temperature. It may also come in the form of powder after the water evaporates after, for example, oven-drying or atomization.
  • the satiation agent comprises a content of safranal and/or picrocrocin and/or crocin and/or derivatives thereof between 0.01 and 50%—but preferably a content of between 0.1 and 10%, and more particularly from 1 to 5%—by weight, relative to the total weight of the satiation agent when the latter is in solid or liquid form.
  • satiation agent can be added to the satiation agent, such as bulking agents, fluidizing agents, natural extracts, vitamins, minerals, oligo elements, amino acids, fatty acids, anti-agglomerates, natural oils, aromas, dyes, acidifying agents, thickeners, preservatives and sweeteners.
  • the feedstocks are advantageously microcrystalline cellulose, potato maltodextrin, and magnesium lactate.
  • the thickener that is preferably used is potato starch, hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose, citrus pectin, guar gum, carob, agar-agar, konjac, hydrogenated oils, or beeswax.
  • the fluidizing agents can be magnesium silicate, magnesium stearate, and colloidal silica.
  • the anti-agglomerates are those usually used in the food industry, such as magnesium stearate and colloidal silica.
  • the vitamins are selected from among, i.a., vitamins C, E, B 6 , B 1 , B 2 and B 3 .
  • the natural extracts in addition to the saffron stigmata extract can be extracts from green tea, cinnamon, guarana, Yerba Mate, fennel, queen of the meadow, corn, sage, bee balm, and caffeine.
  • citric acid can be used in the composition of the satiation agent.
  • the stabilizers used in the production of the satiation agent are those usually used in the agricultural industry, such as sorbitol.
  • the aromas that can be used are varied, such as the aroma of coffee, lemon, apple, chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry.

  • Preservatives are useful so that the satiation agent is preserved over time.
  • the preservatives that are used can be, for example, potassium sorbate, parabenes, sodium benzoate, or ascorbyl palmitate (anti-oxidant).
  • the satiation agent that comprises, i.a., the active ingredients of saffron has the advantage of being easily usable and not restrictive.
  • the content of active ingredients of saffron and more particularly safranal does not need to be very high to achieve the desired effect, i.e., an effect of satiation and therefore a very quick loss of weight of fat-body mass and in the circumference of the waist and hips.
  • the saffron stigmata extract picked up in an ampoule or in a tablet does not have an odor, texture or taste that is disagreeable to the user.
  • the saffron stigmata extract can be combined with other active ingredients, such as vitamins, without this interacting with the effectiveness of the active ingredient.

  • the effectiveness of the satiation agent that contains safranal has been tested on a panel of four persons for a duration of 20 days. These four persons have in no way modified their dietary habits nor their lifestyle during the period of the experiment. They have ingested 30 mg of saffron extract in a single dose daily at breakfast.
  • a second clinical study was conducted so as to demonstrate the satiating effect of the active ingredients of saffron in 16 female subjects suffering from compulsive nibbling.

More particularly, each gel capsule contained 0.9% picrocrocin (or 2.40 mg/gel capsule), 0.4% safranal (or 1.07 mg/gel capsule), and 0.3% crocin (or 0.80 mg/gel capsule).
  • FIG. 1 which shows the demonstration of the sensation of hunger before meals between day 28 and day 0—illustrates, the subjects of group 2 felt a greater reduction of the sensation of hunger before lunch, continuing until dinner, while group 1 (placebo) felt an increase in the sensation of hunger.
  • group 2 has not felt a sensation of hunger at the end of the meal (no variations), while group 1 (placebo) felt an increase from day 0 to day 28.
  • FIG. 3 which shows the reduction in body mass from day 0 to day 28, after 28 days of treatment of 2 gel capsules per day, one in the morning and one at mid-day, a loss of weight on average of ⁇ 1.28 kg was noted in group 2 relative to a loss of weight on average of ⁇ 0.50 kg within group 1 ; a loss of fat-body mass on average of ⁇ 1.28 kg in group 2 relative to the placebo group 1 of ⁇ 0.17 kg; and a loss of lean-body mass of 0 kg within group 2 relative to the placebo group that lost on average ⁇ 0.33 kg.
  • the reduction of the food intake in group 2 is thus connected to an increase in the sensation of fullness that, in contrast to the cognitive restriction, does not induce a sensation of frustration that increases the risk for regaining weight.
  • reducing the sensation of restriction could improve compliance with the regimen and associated loss of weight, as well as to reduce the risk of rebound, often linked to a slackening following the regimen period.
