Description

Saffron (Crocus sativus) is one of the most expensive spices. This is because the stigmas of the plant are carefully handpicked for the spice. The oil has its own heart-opening and compassion-enhancing powers. Saffron gets its reddish orange color from constituent carotenoids crocin and crocetin. The stigmas of the flower contain aromatic essential oil safranal. Saffron is also high in thiamine and riboflavin. The oil is light yellow or golden in color with woody, spicy and hay like odour.

It is a strong aphrodisiac, antipoisonous, carminative, cardiotonic, diuretic, diaphoretic, febrifuge, emmenagogue, lactogogue, stimulant, nervine tonic, livotonic, and typtic and sedative. Saffron is a great medicine for the heart, and its fragrance in incense has been used traditionally for its heart-opening and compassion-enhancing powers. It is used in acne, apoplexy, arthritis, asthma, colic, cough dyspepsia, hemierania, insect bites and stings, liver disorders, mental disorders, neurasthenia, oedema, painful menstruation, phthisis, prolapse of anus, sore throat, splenetic and sexual disorders.
