Saffron has always captivated the rich and famous. Cleopatra, the legendary Egyptian ruler, is said to have taken saffron baths for their cosmetic and aphrodisiac properties. Egyptians also used the spice in embalming and poultices. It was used to dye the gowns of the Minoan goddesses. Crocin, picrocrocin, and safranal, antioxidants found in the spice, are said to reduce inflammation, boost immunity, and help fight Alzheimer's and depression. #Saffron #SaffronCrocus #SaffronSpice #SaffronHealthBenefits #saffronpurple #Saffronfordepression #saffronforskin #saffronBoostimmunity #saffroncosmetics #Saffronhistory #Saffroncottage #KongPosh #saffrontea #saffronasli
