BENEFITS
- Treating depression and creating vitality
Serotonin is one of the most important neurotransmitters in the body that plays an important role in controlling and improving depression. Many existing chemical antidepressants (fluoxetine) are also designed and manufactured with this serotonin control mechanism. The important difference between saffron and these drugs is in their side effects.
Although saffron has no known side effects for people with depression, it can also compensate for the side effects caused by other chemical drugs in the market. One of these complications is sexual disorders caused by antidepressants, which saffron can improve these disorders to an acceptable extent.

One of the most important issues and problems that endangers our cardiovascular health today is the increase in the production of free radicals in our body. These free radicals are produced in large quantities due to our inappropriate lifestyle and lead to the oxidation of fats in the coronary arteries of the heart. One of the best properties of saffron is that it has a large amount of antioxidants such as crocin, crostin and safranal. The duty of these antioxidants is to neutralize free radicals and thus guarantee our cardiovascular health.
According to medical science and scientists’ research, one of the main causes of cancer is the presence of free radicals in the human body. Interestingly, free radicals are naturally produced in our body and if our body cannot neutralize these free radicals, it will suffer serious problems. Free radicals tend to damage and oxidize anything in their reach. Free radicals around the nucleus of cells can damage the genetic material and especially its regulatory sequences, leading to the development of very hard cancers.
As mentioned, the presence of antioxidants such as safranal crocin and picrocrocin in saffron neutralizes free radicals and prevents cancer in humans.

All these cases lead to the reduction of fat mass in people and weight loss and slimming with saffron.
