Saffron is a medicinal spice that contains several carotenoid compounds which have potent anti-depressant, anti-oxidant, and anti-cancer properties. It is also a good source of minerals and vitamins that help to control blood pressure, regulate heart rate, repair stress related damage, support healthy red blood cell production, build the immune system, and prevent infections. Saffron has also been known to alleviate depression and mental stagnancy and bring back joy to the senses. Saffron has the ability to soothe the digestive tract and be an overall natural digestive aid. Saffron Extract (in supplement form) has also been used as an appetite suppressant and weight loss aid. Saffron is known to provide significant cognitive benefits by helping to promote mental focus, memory retention, and recall capacity. It is also beneficial for eyesight and can specifically aid in the prevention and repair of cataracts. Only a pinch is needed for effective results. Consider adding a little saffron to your cooking to add not only a beautiful color and a wonderful flavor and aroma, but multiple health benefits as well.
