Saffron (Crocus sativus) is an herb that is widely cultivated in India and other parts of the world. The flower of Saffron contains a thread like red-colored stigma which is dried and used commercially as a spice for its powerful odor and also for Ayurvedic preparations.

Saffron helps relieve cough and asthma when taken along with honey. It is also beneficial in managing the problems of the reproductive system, such as, erectile dysfunction in men and menstrual pain in women.

Taking Saffron with milk relaxes the nervous system which helps reduce anxiety and prevents insomnia.

Saffron is also useful in skin problems as it protects against sun damage. Adding a few drops of Saffron oil to your daily-use cream might help prevent pigmentation and promote skin whitening.
