Saffron (Crocus Sativus) is a small perennial plant cultivated in many parts of the world. It is a medicinal herb with several benefits. Traditionally, its flower stigmas are a well known aphrodisiac. Saffron is also believed to strengthen the appetite, soothe the alimentary canal, increase bile flow, clear liver stagnancy, help menopausal difficulties and relieve phlegm.
Saffron contains a poison that can damage the kidneys and nerves, and therefore should only be used sparingly.
