May improve mood and treat depressive symptoms

The spice known as "sunshine" is saffron. This is not just because of its distinctive hue, but also because it could lift your spirits. Saffron pills considerably outperformed placebos in treating mild-to-moderate depressive symptoms, according to a study of five research.

According to other research, saffron supplements containing 30 mg daily were just as efficient at treating depression as Fluoxetine, Imipramine, and Citalopram. In comparison to other medications, saffron had fewer adverse effects on patients. The thread-like stigma and saffron petals both seem to work well for treating mild to severe depression. Even though these results are encouraging, more human research with more subjects is required before specialists can suggest saffron as a depression cure.
