Over the ages, saffron has been used to treat depression, asthma, insomnia, hardening of the arteries, coughs, whooping cough, gas, shock, digestive problems,  dry skin, baldness, premature ejaculation, and now is being studied in connection with cancer.

Saffron contains 34 chemical compounds.

Allegedly, if you steep 6 – 10 threads in ½ cup boiling water and drink twice a day, it will regulate your menstrual cycle.

Not much is known about the benefits of saffron. It’s just one of Grandma’s home rememdies that has sort of faded away.
